Description


Leave a laundry basket unattended for longer than a few minutes and Ms Jess, one of our cats, is in it...She particularly enjoys aligning her eyes thru the holes and watching the "goings on" around her....she's easily amused...

Have a great day, BP'er's!

Laundry-basket shots are cute, but this takes it to a (w)hole (ouch!) new level, Val! Ms Jess's calico colors make it so much fun to check out each opening --- there must be 9-10 different cats in there. If the bp judges don't slap some serious medals on this, they need their eyes checked!! Fave'd! #11180196
