Dexter

Somehow, it's just a simple soft purple blanket on a chair in our living room, but on it, Dexter manages to look like . . . royalty. His clean white paws are neatly crossed, his bib and tucker have been washed, and he is getting ready to settle in for a long evening's nap.

The soundtrack: what it is this year and every year at our house. :-) Al Stewart, Year of the Cat.

Bonus: another shot of Dexter as the cat with a purple blanket.
