Pets on Quilts

I have never gotten around to participating in the Pets on Quilts blog hop that Snoodles does every year, although I have gone and looked at all those adorable pets and their quilts. Such talent in these quilts and the animals are adorable. I have a quilt inspector named Omalley, after Omalley the alley cat in the Disney movie Aristocats. He is an old man now. He is 16 years old. He has been a part of our family since my daughter adopted him as a baby. Here are some pictures of him doing his job:
 This is my favorite place to sleep, especially in the winter. Lots of pillows and quilts and mom even puts a heating pad under the quilt to keep me warm. These old bones get quite chilled in the winter, you know.
                 I know mom wants to get this quilted, but it is already pretty cozy.
                           What? You need me to move? Now?
 When she won't let me lie on the work in progress, I sit here in her quilting room on the sewing machine cover. It's quilted too.
 I love the bed in winter. It usually has several layers of quilts on it for  extra coziness.
                       And now I lay me down to sleep...
Thanks to Snoodles and Dragondrop and Padsworth. This was fun. Lily Pad Quilting

Abraham De Lacy Guiseppe Casey! Our Thomas is also named after the Aristocats character, what fun. :) O'Malley seems like a great inspector, I'm sure he could give Thomas a few tips!

Just like our cat, although ours is about half the age...how can they sleep that much?

Omalley is absolutely beautiful. A 16 year old kitty deserves to rest on wonderful warm quilts made by Mom. That last photo is fabulous.

Hugs to you and O’Malley! He reminds me of my furson Boomer, who died 3 years ago at age 18. What a loving, sweet boy he seems to be. You are both lucky to have each other!

O'Malley is one very comfy kitty. How wonderful that he has such good care in his golden years. Of course, being an orange tabby, all his years have been golden, LOL.
