Sunday Sunpuddle

Veikko: my furry friend is not the only one who can gaze wistfully into the distance. 

I also do a good back of head shot.

Sampo's Saturday

Sampo: I am looking wistfully at the autumn sunshine and feeling it on my face.  Yesterday, we had snow but luckily it melted away. I am happy to wait awhile for winter to come.

Flooftail Friday

Mesi:  I wanted to join in with 'Tocktober but I wasn't going to make it easy for Äiti. When I get my Tortietude Play Time head on I zoom around with a mighty floofy tailio - but Äiti never manages to get a great photo as I am way too clever for that.

And she failed so badly here she couldn't keep even Veikko's ears out of the shot. He was lazing on her lap in a sunpuddle.

A quick check up to the balcony before I leap off.

And  finally I zoomed inside and she caught me on the sofa.   

Uh oh, Great Uncle Jura is joining in; time to  play!   Happy Friday all.

Saturday Sun Puddle

The equinox has passed so we know that the sunshine will leave us too soon we take every opportunity we can to sit outside, especially if Äiti is with us (note her ever preseent mug of tea!). Ruska is always on mousewatch and this season has presented many gifts to Äiti. She gets the stinky shrews which don't taste good; only Ruska knows how many he has caught as the tastier rodents get eaten!

Jaava and Jura were missed out of the first picture - they shared the top platform (of course).

Magnificent Monday

Mesi - perhaps I am immodest but this is a gorgeous photo of my profile as I sniff the glorious kissanminttu Äiti has plucked from the garden. 

See how it looks like the sun shines from me - this is of course true for all us torties. Especially the tiny ones like me.
