Dear sox, curling up next to me in a cute purry lump is LESS likely to get me out of bed to feed you

As if I didn't already have a problem getting out of bed in the mornings...

Miss Gibson is cuddled up in bed and I want to follow her example. Sadly half my team is off sick today so I can't take a sneaky leave day.

Having a cat at home is definitely disastrous for one's purroductivity

But infinitely better for one's mental health. Weekend looks good for some cuddle time!

I cannot begin to tell you how much time we waste with 3 cats in the house!

I've had to really hold back and not kidnap a couple of the strays lol

I take my hat off to you for getting anything done at all. I think I'd be basically non-functional at that point.

Oh I'm pushing shit uphill on a daily basis to get me and the kid out the door to work and school!
