There was once this blanket that I really hated, because it was cheap and prickly; but Pandora really liked it. That kind of crisp, hedgehoggy texture appeals to her, just like it did to her brother Jasper, who liked to roll around on rough concrete sidewalks. Lately Pandora’s taken even more of a liking to a similarly prickly towel which fell out of my laundry hamper, and she’s been using it as her bed all week.

Also in this set: Pandora sprawled on the floor by my shopping cart, and a nice little macro closeup.
