Tail Grooming



Niko is grooming
with both his legs in the air :-)


I like the way he holds his tail when grooming it.


Meanwhile Goro was...


He was grooming the toy. (Why?)


...Goro. It's not your tail.

(Then what is that affectionate look on his face?) 


Next day... 

I found the toy soft and fluffy :-)

Oh, Niko!!! You amazed me with your acrobatic posture♬♬♬ Not so acrobatic for you?
Goro, you might also love the color of soft and fluffy toy as well. Lovely color, and Mom has good sense for choosing goodies for both of you♡♡♡

I'm very impressed with your "cleaning job." I watched very carefully and might use a couple of your techniques.

Yep - you have to hold onto those tails...you never know when they might try to escape. MOL

Niko, good job getting that tail clean. That is the only way to do it. And Goro, our Little Bit goes around cleaning the toys too. She loves to clean the feather toys. You two are just too cute. Take care.

Niko, Sammy and Moosey hold their tails when they clean themselves, too! :D

Goro, you sure did a great job cleaning that toy. It looks brand new!

Your Niko is so cute!!! I had a friend who's cat loved to like his feather toy, it was really cute to watch.

Carmine and Milita send purrs to your fur babies :)

OKcats said...

Niko is such a cutie! And who know Goro had such a soft, sweet side? :)

Kitcaboodles said...

Love it when the kitties do the 'grooming whilst holding tail' thing, I never get a picture of it though so rather impressed at your superior pawperazzi skills! =^..^=

michiko said...

It was nice to seen Goro san enjoyed so much
the soft toys:-)
It was a good shot for a while Niko san grooming
pose and you must have your camera near by you..
Enjoy your day.

Clooney said...

Great technique Niko! And good job Goro! You boys make Uncle Cloon so proud! You two are just awesome.

Cokie the Cat said...

Thanks for stopping by my Pay It Forward Saturday Blog Hop Post. Eldad and Audrey ARE awesome.

Andy you babies are, too. Check out all that tail/toy grooming!

I don't have any feeling in my tail, so I don't groom it anymore. It just sort of follows me around like a pony tail. It's OK though. I'm feeling sick today, so hopefully that will pass and all will be better by tonight. Mom says she'll give me a good brushing if I do - or even if I don't.

Love,
Cokes
