A Porch Hammock Held One Siamese Cat and One Sleeping Puppy

AI imagesiamese catpuppyhammock

The hammock sways just slightly, cradling a Siamese cat and a golden puppy in its woven rope. The cat has curled into a tight crescent, her dark ears, mask and tail contrasting with her creamy fur, and her head rests close to the puppy's. The puppy lies with his chin on the rope, eyes shut, face relaxed. Beyond the rail, a potted plant sits on the planks and a chain-link fence and a bare garden stretch into the soft gray of a cool afternoon. Fallen leaves dot the deck, adding to the quiet autumn mood.

Hammocks hold a special appeal for cats because they cradle the body and gently sway, like a soft nest. Siamese cats are famous for being social and vocal and often want to be near their person or companion animal. If you want to give pets a hammock, choose one with a closed bottom, check the rope for wear, and keep it low to the ground so jumping on and off is easy. Never leave very young puppies alone in a swinging bed, since a tumble can cause injury. Talk to your vet if you are unsure what is safe, and choose a spot in the shade on warm days.

Some friendships are built on adventures, and some on afternoons just like this one. The hammock keeps rocking, and nobody wakes up.
