The Perfect Spot

The Perfect Spot

Uploaded: January 02, 2009

Description


Maybe I should call this SPOT'S Perfect Spot! But it seems a bit repetitive...

Yesterday, I posted a photo of Spot when he was a kitten. This is how he looks today. (Technically, yesterday; which is when I caught this photo.) This is his favorite place to nap - the bathroom sink!

This is great, Nadya. Terrific capture of Spot. #6970409

Mary Timman January 02, 2009

Cute shot. I use to have a pure white cat and he slept in our bathroom sink everynight...strange, huh? ~lol~ #6970425

Barbara Waldoch January 02, 2009

Perfect place for a catnap :-)
Terrific catch, Nadya! #6970456

Deb Koskovich January 02, 2009

He's a perfect fit, LOL! I used to have a cat that loved to do this too. She thought it was there solely for her enjoyment and I had to kick her out every morning so I could get ready for work, LOL. Such a cute image, Nadya! #6970471

Michelle Alton January 02, 2009

Oh...I LOVE this.... Maybe SPOT wants a BATH!! #6970502

Kumiko Parkinson January 02, 2009

Very cute and a perfect fit!! Great capture, Nadya!
Max does this too. They hate water and love sink? I don't get it.... #6970674

Shirley Sicurello level-classic January 02, 2009

What is it about sinks that cats love?! Great shot. #6970700

Nadya Johnson January 02, 2009

Thanks for leaving such terrific comments! I'm sure if the faucet dripped (even once) he'd be OUTTA there! LOL. None of my other cats have ever done this... funny, how they chose their individual napping spots! Goldie snoozes on the fridge but most prefer the softer places. Like the bed! Gets a little crowded... maybe that's why some have given up and chosen other napping spots? Spot is in the sink a lot and yes, we have to scoot him out of there to use it! #6970725

Ron McEwan January 02, 2009

Cats are so independent. This is unique thanks to the cat he made it possible. #6970788

Lorna Shutter January 02, 2009

LOL! My cat likes to sleep in anything that has an opening, like duffle bags and laundry baskets ... but, usually boxes that are too small for him to get into! He still squeezes himself in and hangs out the sides! He's hilarious! Looks like your cat has found a wonderful spot to sleep in! I bet you hate to disturb him when you have to wash your hands and find him taking a nap! It would be funny if guests came over and used the bathroom and Spot was in the sink! Ha! Ha! This is a fantastic capture of your adorable little kitty, Nadya! :) #6970792

Jeff Robinson level-deluxe January 02, 2009

Carol Sawyer January 02, 2009

Margaret R. Barry January 02, 2009

Judy A. Lawhon January 02, 2009

Bill Wyatt January 02, 2009

Your cats are spoiled rotten lol. Terrific colors and details. Nice work Nadya!! Spot has really grown! #6971096

Lisa D. Greer January 02, 2009

Ha, ha! Thats toooo cute! :) #6971100

Sam Britt January 02, 2009

Cute capture, Nadya. Spot has grown up to be a handsome fellow. A couple of my cats have tried curling up in the sink like that, but like yours, they prefer softer spots - where they leave LOTS of cat hair for me to clean up! #6971199

Melissa Olsen January 02, 2009

Now this is way too adorable...I once had a cat that would nap on my keyboard while I was trying to type. Perfect capture Nadya as usual! #6971306

Usman M. Bajwa level-classic January 02, 2009

Nadya, this is an adorable shot of Spot resting so comfortable in the bathroom sink taken with fine detail and great composition!!! #6971506

Ronald F. Fischer January 02, 2009

Wonderful capture, Nadya. As an owner of two cats I can appreciate how they can "take over" just about any spot in the house (LOL)! #6971833

Beverly A. Wright January 02, 2009

This is too sweet Nadya! I love how cats
are so cool about what they do!
Spot looks like he has the right idea, he fits perfectly in the sink!
He's a beautiful kitty!! #6971919

Nancy (Peaches) Harker January 02, 2009

So cute Nadya, My ctas are always sleeping in the kitchen sink, it's bigger LOL!
Terrific capture of this cutie! #6972081

Tammy Espino January 02, 2009

Oh what a cute capture! He may like the water though. My mother has a cat that likes to sit in the bathtub and let water drip on his head. But then he likes to drink tea and eat on fruit/cherries etc..lol Funny little guys :) #6972154

Courtenay Vanderbilt January 02, 2009

Cats are the darnedest things! Cute portrait, Nadya. #6972228

Nadya Johnson January 02, 2009

Thanks so much everyone, for taking time to look and comment! I did have a cat one time, who loved the water. He sat in the sprinkler all the time! Most avoid it like the plague. But they really are like people: definitely, individuals. #6972317

Kitty R. Rodehorst-Hanna January 02, 2009

Carol Teal January 05, 2009

LOL so cute! Funny how he chooses this spot over softer and warmer places! I can't say any of my cats have ever slept in the sink, although when it is hot, one of mine will lay around in the tub for short periods of time. Cats are just so funny! :D #6983438

Sandy Powers January 05, 2009

Oh this is SO "Cat" ! ! I love it. My cat will find the little dimples on our couch pillows and THAT is her favorite place to curl up and "own". I love your cat. He is SO CUTE!

Oh and you have an elegant bathroom too by the way :) #6987136

Debra R. Harder January 05, 2009

Spot is adorable, Nadya! You caught the perfect moment here. My cat's favorite spot is usually on top of my head at 3:00 a.m...LOL! Wonderful capture!! Deb #6987558

Pamela Shane January 05, 2009

Tooo funny - lol! Lovely capture, wonderful light.
Our cat Patches, used to sleep in our bathroom sink as well. LOL Debra - my cat Starr is also on top of my head in the middle of the night. We occasionally
scrap for the pillow!! :) #6987633

Nadya Johnson January 06, 2009

Thanks so much for all your great comments! As we have 12 cats (!!) - no, that's not a typo - nearly any place you can think of, someone has it: this includes the bed of course, where Goldie tends to hog my pillow while her Mom, Sweet Pea, prefers cuddling up with Claude. Never a dull moment! LOL. In summer they prefer the deck and yard. And unless it's really hot (!), so do I! #6990488

This is a "Rockin' kitty capture" and congrats on your EfP, Nadya #7015602

Lisa J. Boulden level-classic January 17, 2009

Sweet capture, Nadya!
And, Ann, that Rockin' kitty cracks me up!!!
My mini-pic cat, Tickles, loves the sink AND water. Loves to drink from the faucet and splash and jump in little puddles with her front paws.
Smiles, Lisa♥ #7045846
