Froufrou loves everyone - especially Barbie

Frou likes warm bodies. Any new visitors get a Frou installed on their lap within 15 minutes of sitting down on the couch. I am constantly peeling her off me so that I can get up and do things around the house. 

She had decided to make use of the dogs when I am not available for cat-warming duties. It used to be that Bender was her favorite doggie to snuggle with, but I think that he had dropped his Kong onto her head too many times. 

The 'new' dog definitely got a look in, but that love affair ended when Olive growled at Froufrou for licking her face. Bender loves it, but the greyhounds don't find it as enjoyable. 


Frou isn't silly, she knows when she is not wanted. Well most of the time anyway! I think she realised that she would get the most cuddle time with the dog who lies down the most - Barbie. She moved on to sharing Barbie's bed with her during the day.


Then she started kicking Barbie in the face when she tried to sleep on the couch at night. Barbie doesn't seem to mind, though she draws the line at face-licking. She will get up and leave if Frou insists on that part of the snuggle ritual.

I can only imagine that a kitty face-licking would only be so enticing with their raspy tongues.

Bender loves it. He will even poke Frou with his nose if she stops but he hasn't had enough yet. The greyhounds are a bit more sensitive.
I can't decide if that is more cute or funny. Frou-Frou sounds like a little darling!

she is a sweet little cat, even if she's a bit annoying sometimes!
I have never known of a cat wanting to lick a dog's face! That is one very confident cat!

Well she grew up with Bender, so she learned to be confident. When he was a puppy he used to mouth her and cover her in spit!! We managed to teach him not to do that before he got too big, though if he didn't have Froufrou growing up I don't think he would be able to live with cats now.
Love Frou! With a fabulous name like that, you'd have to be a fabulous kitty!
I had 2 cats (brother and sister) for 14 years along with a Welsh Terrier and up to 5 Shelties and they all lived happily. The thought of having a cat with Frankie and Beryl scares the s**t out of me!! But then my old cats came along first and then the dogs so it was all the dogs ever knew, they lived with 2 cats. Well done Frou Frou and Bender. It's awesome :)
It is really cute to see these pets playing with each other and it really doesn’t happen every time. I think you have really trained your dog so that he is able to make such bond with your pet cat.
