Follow me on other sites! Wednesday, 29 August 2012. The sleepy cats of Nekorobi. Regular readers may remember my visit to Nekorobi.

And everyone was very sleepy that day. A bit like Postman Pat's cat! A disgraceful pose for such a pretty cat! Look at that pudgy cheek! Burt looks grumpy even while sleeping. Hope you liked the photos!
