Cat Buddies

I ran the above picture last fall as an example of how brothers Tigger and Leo are still pals as adults, just as they were as kittens. They don't spend much time close together like this, but I think it's somewhat unusual that they do so at all. We've never had siblings before, but in my experience all adult cats tend to be somewhat standoffish toward other cats, unless they're cold and need another cat to snuggle with in the winter.

It's hot summertime here now, but the pair will still lie next to each other sometimes, as here on the rocking chair on our porch last week…

…and again today crammed onto the same windowsill in my studio. It's quite an adorable trait, and it makes us smile when they do it. Anyone else out there have sibling cats, and do they like to snuggle up to each other? I'm curious to know.
