It's a cape! It's a shirt! ...It's the swiss cheese blanket!

Have I told you about Mr. Cecil's swiss cheese blanket? It used to be in the shape of a rectangle but is now riddled with holes due to Cecil's determination to get his recommended daily allowance of patterned blue fleece. Thankfully he sees no need to ingest particles of any of our other textiles.

Anyway, this thing is permanently covered with dog hair. Seriously. Washing it doesn't help. Vacuuming it is futile. But he, of course, loves it. He pulls it out of his crate every morning, sometimes shakes it around (and oh, the cloud of hair that's unleashed....), and spends a good part of each day gnawing away at it.

The other day, The Awesome Husband draped the blanket over Cecil like a cape. I don't have to tell you how entertaining that was, do I? I wasn't quick enough to get any really good pictures of the blanket-cape, but I did manage to capture when Cecil had subsequently rolled himself up in it. If you'll notice the shots where one of his paws has a piece of blanket draped over it? That's where he'd managed to put one of his front legs through one of the holes. Like a shirt.

Mmm, fleece. Tasty, tasty fleece.
