All about Shelley

Shelley is our other tortoiseshell cat, sister to Twiggy and Fluffy.
She's always been the more reserved one, tends to be a loner too.

In 2017 the three of them went on a diet, and even though they all lost weight, Shelley seems to have piled it on again, as she's become an expert at opening the automated plates and sometimes will have 2 extra meals after eating her breakfast or dinner ๐Ÿ˜ก

But I'm sure she thinks she's very tiny and dainty as she loves to squeeze herself into tiny spots ๐Ÿ˜‰.

Sadly Fluffy is not much of a brother or friend to her and tends to bully her. 
If Shelley happens to be sitting near me, Fluffy just has to give her a look, she averts her eyes and jumps off.  But on the rare occasion they might even cuddle together...




Luckily Twiggy is her friend and will give her cuddles.



And now you've met my 3 cats! 
And here are the three of them sleeping in my bed.


 Linking to Feline Friday and Saturday Critters.

  1. Dearest Sami,
    Haha, that is not your bed, but theirs and they let you use it too!
    Oh, how they can own the place but they also do give a lot of affection and love.
    We never have had a tortoiseshell cat but yours look lovely.
    Hugs,
    Mariette

    1. Especialmente no inverno, acordo com os 3 a minha volta, ou voltam para a cama depois do pequeno almoco.

  4. A bed warmed by a human is a wonderful thing for cats. The automated plates are interesting, and I am not surprised that your cat Shelley worked out how to beat the system.

    1. Lol, hadn't heard that one Andrew.
      Shelley doesn't look the cleverest cat but she's the only one that figured out how to get more food :)

  9. Sweet cats----Shelly and Twiggy seem to be twins and maybe Fluffy is a bit left out so seems a bit gruff.

    1. Thanks Bill. They think it's their bed, but it's "my" bed, lol.

  13. Shelley's food habits remind me of Squiggles. I can leave food out for Bleubeard and he knows exactly when to stop eating. Squiggles wants more even after I've fed him. I have to restrict his diet, or he would get big as a house. Regardless, Shelley is a beautiful cat. Great photos, too.

    1. Thanks Elizabeth. My son's cat gets a portion of food and she eats it through the day, a bit at a time, unlike mine who seem to be always hungry.

  14. Lovely. And beautiful. Where do you sleep, on the sofa? Just kidding ;-)
    Glad they have each other, even if there´s some teasing around.

    1. On the bed Iris :), they usually take over after I get up, specially if it's cold. When it's warm they will go into the garden or stay on the patio.
