Tea With A Kitty On My Knee



It's no secret.
I love Kitties and Tea.


Tea With a Kitty On The Knee



I've been enjoying my morning tea
(this morning Bigelow Green Tea with Mint)
in my new kitty mug from Kent Pottery.


Tea With a Kitty On the Knee



The lid keeps my tea nice and warm.
The illustrations and sayings on the mug bring a smile to my face.
Mornings around here -- even on Monday -- are a happy place!


Tea With a Kitty On the Knee


The box my kitty mug came in was just too cute!
I pulled it apart and kept the illustrations and sayings.
This is an example and shows the Kent Pottery insignia with is also on the bottom of the mug.



Tea With a Kitty on the Knee

The Meow tea towel was a gift from a very dear friend of mine.
She sends me some cute feline information every now and then.
Here's an example:

WHY FELINES LOVE FEMALES

Cats are drawn to the open, social nature of women and enjoy engaging in human-to-human behaviors, such as being spoken to -- something women do more often than men, says new research. "Eventually the pair can develop day-to-day rituals akin to those of people who live together for a long time," according to study author Kurt Kotrschal, PhD.

    All you need while enjoying your tea in your beautiful new mug is some music:

    "Oh Suzanna, don't you cry for me. I'm goin' to Alabama with a kitty on my knee!"

    I love your post.

    SO CUTE!

    My kitty Romeo gives a big "meow" and his stamp of approval.He said if you had a mug with a doggie on it, would probably be a dribble glass b/c doggies always drool.

    I think he may be right!

    Such a cute post, Snap! I totally agree about kitties and their lady owners carrying on conversations. My mother's cat used to talk to her all the time. They understood each other perfectly. It was quite comical actually to see them interact like that. Secret, the cat, wasn't the prettiest cat in the world but she sure loved my mother and my mother, her! Thank you for sharing and coming by for my party. Have a delightful day.

    Blessings,
    Sandi

    The mug with lid is sweet Snap, as is the towel.
    So, a cat will even sleep in clean underwear? Yikes.

    Hi Snap,
    the kitty mug is supercute. And what would be sweeter and more comfortable (for the cat) to have tea with a kitty on the knees. I love their company. Thank you for sharing this cute tea time.
    Best greetings, Johanna
