Completely happy October, good friend. 🎃 Lots of people seek advice from this as pumpkin spice season, however I wish to name it toe bean climate. And talking of that, I believe my tabby had the perfect toe beans on the town. Right here he was on the peak of his toe bean excellence. This put up was from October 1, 2017. What do you assume? Weren’t these toe beans attractive?
Whiskers, ear tufts, tums, tails and haunches at all times get the cat woman love, however I believe toe beans deserve extra consideration.
In case you’re already sporting your official loopy cat woman cap, welcome! You’ll in all probability know what I’m speaking about, however in the event you aren’t/don’t, enable me to increase a heat welcome to The Land of CCLs! 🙂
Second of all, you know the way cat paws have these gentle pads, proper? With the fats pad within the middle, surrounded by the 4 little pads underneath their claws? Properly, in informal CCL convo, these are known as “toe beans,” and methinks they’re beautiful.
There’s a subset of the loopy cat woman group that’s sort of obsessive about them (from my working data!), and I can see why, as a result of toe beans are THE BEST.
Now that Tabs is, you understand, within the mature stage of his kitty life, his toe beans have… Properly, I gained’t name them wrinkles. I’ll name them “expertise traces.” His toe beans have extra expertise traces than they used to, and his toe beans aren’t as shiny as they as soon as have been. However I nonetheless 💗 them. They’re dainty and candy, and every time I contact them, Tabs throws me shade, as if to say, “Girl, it’s not wholesome to be so into my paws. Get a life!”
I like imagining — and that is going to sound SO loopy cat woman, however I don’t care — Tabs as a tiny kitten (I didn’t meet him till he was already one or two), nuzzling his mommy to feed and urgent his little toe beans in opposition to her tummy.
I’m wondering the way it feels when he jumps up on my lap. Do his toe beans desire the texture of soppy sweats to scratchy denims?
I’m wondering how delicate his toe beans are. Like, when he walks downstairs within the morning and his toe beans contact the chilly tiles, is he startled? Or when he jumps into mattress with me, does he go “Ah…” when his toe beans contact the gentle blanket? I believe he does. 🙂
What colour are your cat’s toe beans, and what do they appear to be? Are they clean, or does your kitty have expertise traces like Tabs does?
Your pleasant neighborhood magnificence addict,
Karen
