The Crack of Noon Refusal

by Meg on April 29, 2006

Look, it’s a Saturday morning, and there is simply NO REASON to get out of bed yet. It’s warm and comfterbuls in here, and grey outside, and you can bring me coffee right here. I don’t need to get out if you’re already out. Nyerhe! [pulls covers over head with paws] Nyerhe, nyerhe, nyerrrrrrrzzz.

A Disapproving Cattage!

TEH PAWZZZZZ.

3 AuntieMame 04.29.06 at 6:07 pm

Just try and make me get up!

(I feel that way most mornings…)

4 SilvorMoon 04.29.06 at 6:08 pm

Aww, what a cutie! I wish I could stay in bed like that today. Especially if I could have one of those to cuddle up with.

5 Sylvia 04.29.06 at 6:09 pm

Dear Gawd. What a wonderful picture. There’s something BUNNISH about this kitten. Maybe the long ears + paws + eyes. A new rule? A cute animal mimicking another cute animal?

[stares at picture again]

I’m in love.

So in love.

6 Ponygirl 04.29.06 at 6:11 pm

Purrfect pussage! Think there is room for two in that bed?

7 alice 04.29.06 at 6:14 pm

Best captions ever! I love the sound effects and the pulling covers over head! I love to do that Saturday morns!

8 Laurie 04.29.06 at 6:22 pm

I love it when cats assume attitudes all disporportionate to their size. Look at how small this dude is! And yet, his wishes will be obeyed.

9 Tiffany 04.29.06 at 6:23 pm

Holy cow, look at those ears…

10 little miao 04.29.06 at 6:31 pm

What fluffy paws and big whiskers!!

Time to go back to sleep now. (or, in my case, back to studying…)

11 Plunkatone 04.29.06 at 6:45 pm

How do you pronounce “nyerhe”? This is the second time, and I’m still hooked on the original Nyerrrrhe! picture from March.

12 ElfOwl 04.29.06 at 7:04 pm

Oy. That’s how I felt this morning. Heck, it’s 2 in the afternoon here and I still feel that way. Stupid final papers making me get out of bed. Kitty, you enjoy, and take a nap for me.

13 Jes 04.29.06 at 7:21 pm

Kitten looks a little surprised to be awakened. :o )

ElfOwl–me too!! I’ve promised myself that I will finish this *&%# paper by the end of the day. sigh….

14 Theo 04.29.06 at 7:27 pm

Help… oh help…
The cozy cozy bed is sucking me in, never to escape its terrible sleepy warmth and its vicious bitey flannel…

15 E. Collison 04.29.06 at 7:33 pm

“nyerrrrrrrzzz” – ultra-funny! (And realistic, too.)

16 faye 04.29.06 at 7:54 pm

now thats me on a rainy day, i just want to curl up and have a hot chocolate…hhhmmmm…

17 Julie J 04.29.06 at 8:04 pm

He looks soooo very comfy under the flannel. I want to join him (YAWN)

18 zippergirl 04.29.06 at 8:04 pm

I know the feeling. And the consequences are the same for anybody who tries to wake me up – they usually get savagely bitten/scratched.

19 Susan 04.29.06 at 8:35 pm

If s/he were on her/his side with eyes closed, s/he would look just like Chessie, the mascot kitten of the C&O Railroad. Some of you remember railroads, surely…?

20 mariser 04.29.06 at 8:45 pm

gosh Susan, I luvs Chessie… not a collector, by any means, but I’ve picked up several Chessie items (postcards, coffe cups, magnets) in train shops.
I never got to ride the C&O, but I’ve always wondered if they provided a Chessie to sleep with on request.

21 Rafael 04.29.06 at 8:54 pm

Kittens acting like humans, another rule of cuteness.

22 Tweedle Dee 04.29.06 at 8:55 pm

Soooo comfterbles !! I just want to curl up under the blankies too!

23 Hammy 04.29.06 at 9:03 pm

My kitty!!!!!!

24 Theo 04.29.06 at 9:10 pm

Best let kitty sleep, or else…

Theo:

I thought that the kitty in your link was going to go all crazy on my screen, but the lighter thing, that was great!

And the kitteh expresion says to me:

26 Theo 04.29.06 at 9:17 pm

Rafael — that was Mint Imperial. It’s animations by the same dude who made http://kittenwar.com/ .

27 Woods walker 04.29.06 at 9:20 pm

I am in admiration of any one who can sleep in on any day of the week. Sleep well little kitty.-Woods Walker

Sleeeeepy, soooooo tired! Bored, ahhhhhh.

32 Hammy 04.29.06 at 10:19 pm

Whoops. I didn’t noticeed that I double posted, sorry.

33 Hammy 04.29.06 at 10:34 pm

Whats wrong with me? Maybe too much cute-ness, I meant in my last post “notice”.

34 dixieanne 04.29.06 at 10:50 pm

this picture embodies all that is beatrix potter.

35 Hammy 04.29.06 at 11:00 pm

Anyone there? Hello?

36 RavishingRoberta 04.29.06 at 11:18 pm

37 Hammy 04.29.06 at 11:20 pm

38 Hammy 04.29.06 at 11:22 pm
39 RavishingRoberta 04.29.06 at 11:23 pm

OK I Think Kitty Has A Fever. There Is A Lamp Next To The Bed; And A Thermometer On The Blanket.The Test On Stalking Will Have To Wait.

40 Hammy 04.29.06 at 11:28 pm

Chessies???????? What were ya talkin’ about RR?

41 Brak_Silverbone 04.30.06 at 12:21 am

He’s so tie-tie, his ears are all askew! I also love his “eyebrow” markings.

42 Hammy 04.30.06 at 12:31 am

One of my relatives dogs has brown eye brow markings, and he is sooooooo cute!!!!!!!!!!

43 Jes 04.30.06 at 1:41 am

Kind of a random comment here.

My kitty Pascal looks like he’s wearing black eyeliner. lol. He’s a very girly boy kitty. Or maybe he’s goth.

44 Emo 04.30.06 at 1:44 am

Emo boys!!!!!!! I love emo, or goth boys!!!!!!! They are hot!!!!!!!

45 Hammy 04.30.06 at 1:45 am

Teehee!!!!!! Emo was me!!!!!!!!! Me loves emo!!!!!!

46 Susan 04.30.06 at 2:24 am

For all you youngsters out there, Chessie was the kitten mascot of the Chesapeake & Ohio Railroad– a sleeping kitten in a bed, to show how comfy their sleeping cars were, I presume. See her picture at http://www.chessieshop.com/cgi-bin/csostore.pl?user_action=detail&catalogno=PS-05-135.

47 Hammy 04.30.06 at 2:28 am

Ohhhhhhhhh!! So thats what “Chessie” is!!!!!!!!!

48 Susan 04.30.06 at 2:28 am

If that link to Chessie doesn’t work, just got to chessieshop.com and click on the little calendar picture of her on the left.

49 Hammy 04.30.06 at 2:40 am

Susan- Great timing, I couldn’t get to the site, thanks, I’ll go to:

chessieshop.com

Now, ok!!!!!!

50 RavishingRoberta 04.30.06 at 2:45 am

Thank You Susan

51 meowow 04.30.06 at 3:26 am

awwwww, I love the kitty!!

52 Theo 04.30.06 at 3:27 am

Just a formatting note in passing, here…

Susan, your link works fine if you take the period off the end. If you want to share a URL in these comments, you just need to make sure it’s got least one space at each end, even if it makes the punctuation weird. Like this:
http://www.chessieshop.com/cgi-bin/csostore.pl?user_action=detail&catalogno=PS-05-135 .

53 chet's momma 04.30.06 at 3:31 am

54 Hammy 04.30.06 at 3:38 am

Finally you guys come back! I was missing you!

55 RavishingRoberta 04.30.06 at 4:05 am

OMG Chets Mom…..Packing And Moving Is The Worst. Especially When You Have To Do It All Alone After 30+ Years Of Marriage And Collecting.

56 maymee 04.30.06 at 4:33 am

Must snorgle Mr. FuzzyPaws…can’t resist…

PAWS UP KITTEH!!!

58 Laurie 04.30.06 at 5:09 am

When I was a kid, watching those rail cars go by with Chessie the sleeping kitten outline on them, I thought for sure only I was seeing it as a kitten. It seemed too cute an image for something as macho as a railroad company. For years I thought it was meant to be something else and I was just getting it wrong.

59 Errata 04.30.06 at 6:32 am

Wow, preternaturally cute. Painful, almost.

60 tara 04.30.06 at 6:58 am

absolutely cute and purrrfect!

61 Shelley 04.30.06 at 7:42 am

A way cute kitty!

62 mary elllen 04.30.06 at 11:13 am

What a boo boo kitty!!

63 Chris - Kitten Picture Blog 04.30.06 at 5:32 pm

Mucho cutelicious. My grandma what big ears you have…

64 Pocky 04.30.06 at 10:33 pm

Kitty seems to be beckoning you to join her in the bed for some quality snuggle time. *shifty eyes* …. *dives in with her*

65 ka9q's wife 05.01.06 at 3:12 am

I woke up this morning late. Then, around 11 a, I looked at this and died. I just looked again and died again. I swear that kitten has teeny eyebrows.
oh god
i am so dead now from it’s little stubborn gaze.

66 Aubrey 05.01.06 at 3:35 am

MERCY.

Stated as both an exclamation of delight and joy as well as a plea to Meg.

67 Aubrey 05.01.06 at 6:48 am

Something else: that kitten has mittens.

68 ariel 05.01.06 at 1:15 pm

I LOVE the way his “eyebrows” add to his facial expression, as if to say “I’m NOT getting out of bed yet. And YOU can’t MAKE me! HRMPH!”

76 Faerydreamer 05.18.06 at 8:32 pm
