Now and then one of my cats will stick his tongue out, and keep it there for a while. Minuet has never done it; Renn has done it very rarely; Hector does it, too, a little more often. Neville, on the other hand, though he doesn’t show the blep every day, or even every week, does it more frequently than the others.
The other day, he was in fine form. After blepping while both
sitting and lying down in the sitting room, the Nevsky removed himself to the
bedroom, where he snoozed comfortably in the late afternoon and early evening.
To my surprise, he stuck his tongue out even while asleep. I don’t know of what
he was dreaming, but I would like to know if the blep was showing even on the
other side of consciousness.
You know, I've been a cat person virtually all my life, and it's only now that I learn there's an official name for the tip-of-the-tongue display.
ReplyDeleteThe little blep is cute, The bigger sleeping blep made me laugh.
ReplyDeleteI love him. Always have. I could look at him forever and a day. Adorable blep and he is precious!
ReplyDeleteOh, Nevsky...that's just too darn cute!
ReplyDeleteThose pictures are so cute. My cats, (especially Alex and Joey), will stick their tongues out - sometimes when they're asleep but also sometimes when they're awake. I wonder if they're commenting about something!!
ReplyDeleteCute, cute and super cute!
ReplyDeleteHaHa! Bless! And a special one at the very
ReplyDeleteend for a very special close~up...!x
So nice that you actually were there to take the photos. He's a handsome devil sleeping like that.
ReplyDeleteIt's so adorable when cats do that, irresistible, actually. Nicki used to do that quite a bit, awake or sleeping, but Derry rarely does it. I used to wonder, with Nick, if had anything to do with his missing teeth, since he'd had those little front ones removed, along with many others. Whatever the reason, it's photo-worthy!
ReplyDeleteThe photos are fun, and Neville is adorable!
ReplyDeleteAll of those teeny and tiny and not so tiny bleps are so precious!
ReplyDeleteNow that is just too cute!
