corner view: cuddly

Corner View is a weekly appointment - each Wednesday - created by Jane (Spain) and curated by Francesca (Italy), where bloggers from all corners of the world share their view on a pre-arranged theme.  The theme this week is "warmth" and comes from Beth (US).


Pye, our sweet pastel torti, was a tiny little thing when we brought her home. She connected instantly with my husband and over time has grown to love me too. Pye though, is deathly afraid of the world and everyone in it.  The only other connection she's ever really made in her 14 years was with our Golden, Maggie.  I think that Maggie knew that Pye was a special kitty and needed some extra loving. Pye has made a home for herself in our bedroom and rarely strays from there. Maggie was the only reason that Pye would venture from her upstairs retreat. They frequently would be caught snuggling  like this. Maggie has been gone for some time now and Pye has lost her cuddle buddy. It really is a myth that cats and dogs don't get along, isn't it.

I think it depends on the dog AND the cat, but I have known many that get along just fine.

Pye is a cutie! I'm sorry she lost her snuggle buddy.

sweet cuddle! our cat is also very shy and not at all adventurous or curious, despite the fact that she is mostly an outdoor cat!

I think sometimes it's the dog and the cat that get along better than the cat and the cat. Whatever, it's obvious that these two had a special bond. Thanks for sharing.
