Sunday Selfies - While the Mouse is Away the Cat Will Play! (And why We've Been Missing Lately!)

Hello and Happy Sunday! It's a Happy Sunday, indeed, because we're back to participating in Sunday Selfies! And I'm excited! (As you can tell!) We haven't participated in Sunday Selfies since January 17th! That's two whole months, and Lexy and I aren't happy about that.  

What's that Lexy? I should stop meowing and get on with the selfies? Well, I've got a lot to say! But you're right, onto the selfies! 

This is me and our cat sitter, Dawn. (How cool is that? She has the same name as Mommy!) We took this last week when Mommy was away on a business trip. I was giving her snuggles and I thought this would make for a fab selfie! 


Lexy asked Dawn to help her with an action shot. Here she is practicing her catwalk pose:



Okay, now a little bit about why we've been away.  Mommy was working too much a lot. Her full time job was taking up a lot of time, plus she was working her massage job on Sundays.  Well, very recently Mommy told us that she quit her Sunday job so she'll be home more often to spend time with us and to help us with our blog and our Facebook page. We're very happy about that! Mommy was thinking about maybe giving up our blog because she didn't have time to devote to it, and because it hasn't been getting the attention we hoped it would get.  But we meowed to her, we meowed, "Mommy, please don't give up on our blog.  We've met so many nice people cats and have made so many new friends!" Mommy agreed, because she's met lots of nice humans since we started blogging that she wouldn't know if we didn't have a blog. So we're going to stick around (and hope that people cats haven't forgotten about us!)  

We've got a lot to catch up on, so look for a few reviews from us to be coming in the near future.  And of course, we'll keep you updated you on our shenanigans! 

It's good to be back! We missed everyone! And we definitely missed Sunday Selfies! 

Smooches! 
Lola and Lexy

  1. So glad that you are back and going to stay! Blogging is tricky to fit in with jobs. We have been a bit scarce for the same reason.

  3. Welcome back! We love that sweet first photo. It must have been a big decision giving up a Sunday gig. We know it is so hard to do blogging and live the rest of your life...we've not mastered it either. But we keep trying and coming back too! Glad you are coming back too!

  8. So happy you are back. Yes, many times it seems that no one reads the blog - well a few faithful do. But then we always tell ourselves that it might be because (in our case anyway) we only post a blog on a haphazard basis. But like you, we have met some wonderful people in the blog world and would really miss you and all the others if we didn't blog. So we hope you will keep it up too.

  18. We're glad you are going back to blogging. It takes time to build up a following. If you post your link on the Cat Blogosphere Linkys when you post you will get more visitors.

  28. I'm glad you didn't give up on the blog. It's super easy to do just that, especially when work gets crazy, but sticking with it is always the right choice, IMHO!
