The Cat's Pyjamas

On the sofa, footstool, window sill, crumpled jumper, carpet or that newspaper you're trying to read - our cat Waffles loves to snooze. Though your average house kitty is fond of a good kip, few are clock up as many hours as our five-year-old brown tabby.

Here is a photo of Waffles taken by my super talented friend Nathalie Márquez Courtney - check out her amazing photography here.

WAFFLY VERSATILE: Waffles can sleep anywhere
(By Nathalie Márquez Courtney)

I've been planning on getting him a proper cat bed (though am worried that he will bypass it for our sofa, just as he does the scratching pole!).

Where it not for the fact that there is no option to deliver to Ireland, I would be very tempted to get him a suitably stylish cat bed fashioned out of a vintage suitcase from the Love Nostalgic Whimsy shop on Etsy.

I'm sure Waffles would snooze quite contentedly in this baby blue beauty (€44.84).
