Well, I’m afraid that today’s post is going to be overwhelmingly Oscar-centric (are you sick and tired of seeing photos of my cats yet?!). Thing is, when I read this week’s Photo Friday prompt word – blissful – I immediately thought of our fluffy boy, who is about the most delightfully blissed-out cat I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing.
Oh, don’t get me wrong – he is also crazy and energetic and playful. But when he relaxes, he really relaxes!
Whenever we see him lying on the floor in total blissful, fluffy abandon, we joke that we have an Oscarskin (instead of bearskin) rug.
He really is a lovely boy!
And now… today’s happiness is brought to you by arriving at the end of the workday on the Friday before a very LONG weekend. I have the next four days off, so hopefully I can relax and catch some of Oscar’s bliss!
Hope you have a wonderful weekend!

What made you happy today?
Please share!

Oscar is a poser, and a fine one, at that.
Would you consider training my cat?

LOL, if you saw our cats in person you would never make that request – they are rather unruly!

HOW could anyone tire of seeing that beautiful animal (I say this as a cat owner who takes more pics of her feline than her kids)?! Keep ’em coming!

I’d like to be ABLE to relax that totally. Alas, my skeleton doesn’t permit me to bend that way. 🙂

This kitty looks so happy. 🙂
I love when they get like that. They’re too cute and snuggly and make me want to squeeze them!
I’m doing NaBloPoMo, too. Excited to stumble across your link there.

Such interesting and amusing poses Oscar displays! It seems he loves lying on his back! 😉 What made me happy today is knowing that it’s a Friday of a four-day weekend, for me too! 😉 <3
