    Poppy is adorable! My bunny Yena has a box for playing, too, she loves sitting inside and on top of it :-) It’s great that simple things like that can make our little friends happy :-)

      Hehe, how cute! We have moving boxes all over our apartment at the moment so our cats are in boxy heaven! :)

    Haha, what is it abou cats and the sewing machine? Almost identical to where mine sits, she also likes behind it so I can’t move the fabic through. Reminds of the Carpenters song ‘Close to You’ teehee. And lurve that vintage platter, WHAT A FIND!

      Poppy prefers to be right ON TOP of you, but if you won’t let her on your lap, sitting on whatever you are working on (like books, crafty things and the computer) will do. She is not very conducive to being productive but she is incredibly cute! :)

      What a thoughtful kitty! I always ask ours’ to get me a cup of tea but they’re so lazy, they never do! ;)

    I quite like that granny square blanket in the second photo. I don’t suppose you made it?

      Why thank you! It actually came from a thrift shop! It is quiet seriously the biggest crochet blanket I have ever seen – absolutely enormous and perfect for snuggling under! :)
