Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

 Flynn has the main post this week from December 2010. Eric gets a video with his dad at the end.

Flynn: Keeping Warm.

It is very cold here and the temperature hasn't gone above freezing all day, so I have been trying to find a warm sunspot.

This is a good place behind the curtain, and I can keep an eye on mum when she is on the computer too.

It is also a good idea to sit on the router. It keeps your butt nice and warm.

Mum is going to help me visit my friends now so I'd better turn around.

Eric and Dad with Chin Scritches.

Sometimes Dad gets in my recliner before I get chance to sit in it. I let him stay there for a while though as long as he gives me ear and whisker scritches. I get excited and bite his knuckles most times, so this time he offered me his hand. I knew it was a trap to get my knuckle nibbling on film so I refused. 
Mum found a photo of me nibbling for my art.



Turn the sound up and you can hear Eric's very quiet purr.
If you have trouble with the video, you can watch it here.

For Eric I used Landscape at 65%, then Flow at 30%.


For Flynn I used Red Blush at 40%, then Sadness at 20%.

  2. Flynn, I must be part cat because I am always trying to keep warm, too.

    Eric, your daddy sure knew how to give scritches, my cats would say I need lessons.

    Thank you for linking up with Feline Friday!

  3. I'd say Flynn knew exactly how to get warmed up on a cold day. Nothing better than sitting on Dad's lap and getting ears rubbed. That made for a happy Eric. Happy Friday

  4. Flynn, I have done exactly the same thing when visiting friends in the winter! They keep their home quite cool, so I would settle in a sunny window, behind the curtains, to try to warm up. Lol.

    Eric, that video put a smile on my face! Your dad sure gave you awesome scritches!

  5. It's very considerate of Mum to keep a butt-warmer by her work station, did you meow your thanks? As for the knuckle-biter other-one, have you been sending some messages down to June lately ... OMC, stop please! Her Mom has enough trouble with her hands ...

  25. MARLEY: Wow that is so much like what I like too, Head and chin scritchies are my favrits! The other Mews prefer back rubs, but I love the head stuff.

  26. that was an intense whisker work out you had there, Eric. And routers are a fav for many a cat. Our's sits upright these days so definitely ill designed, MOL.

  27. The art is really beautiful! Flynn found some excellent places for keeping warm! We like to sit on the TV digital converter - the router is inaccessible. We bet Eric enjoyed those wonderful scritches.

  28. Eric, I loved seeing every second of that! I can sure see how much you loved every bit of that from your dad. MY mom bribes me with head stuffs too so that I am in a dream state just about by the time I get my methemazole.

Now we know what we need Angel Flynn...a router where we can sit on for the heat😺Loved that video, what an extensive scratchsage Angel Eric😸Great artwork, we especially like the combination of the first one. The puzzles are on the list for tonight, can't wait to put the pieces together. Double Pawkisses for a Happy and Healthy Day, JackieπŸΎπŸ˜½πŸ’ž
