Here are some photos I snapped over the past couple weeks of Henry. For the most part I know he’s a happy cat, he has food, water, love, and many soft places to sleep. However he has this really weird pose with his top half and head over the edge of the bed… and I can’t tell if he’s relaxed or forlorn. Maybe you guys can lend some insight.
This is where he sits while looking out the window, which he loves to do, so it confuses me that he looks kind of sad.
This is him sleeping… but with the duvet piled up so much you can’t really tell that he’s halfway off the bed.
And here he is sleeping on the heating pad (he loves it when I just put it on low). This one he looked like he was going to fall off the bed!
There is probably no reason to be worried, and I’m not really. It’s just that I could understand this pose while he’s looking out the window (nearly parallel to the bed), but for example, the last one he’s just looking at the floor! Maybe he’s just a weirdo.

Oh Henry… stop worrying your momma… give her a smile next time you send all the blood rushing to your kitty brain, OK?

Hee hee, have you sen the pictures of my little dog draping herself in similar positions? Worry not. Critters just do different things than we do, and do the same things (hang out) differently!

What a cutie! I think he’s relaxed, just trying to steal your heart. ;)

I vote for relaxed. What on earth would he be sad about?!

I think Henry is just relaxed and enjoying his time…he probably saw something that caught his eye out the window in that first one. LOL
I love the photo of him on the heating pad…Hilarious.

I agree with everyone else…he looks like one relaxed kitty to me. :-) The heating pad pic is pretty darn funny, though.

“Some times I sits and looks and sometimes I just sits.”
I’m not sure where that quote comes from, but it is very true of my sister’s cat.
I would have said Henry was contemplating something. He’s a good looking cat.

LOL, he’s so dang cute! Looks to me that he just has a thing for hanging off the bed, cats can be such silly creatures. :)
