Artful Feline!

Our cat Mouse loves artistic energy!

It is impossible to keep him off my studio table

 or Margot's Sassy Feet work table.

He's pretty clear about his ownership!

Holding my Place

I've been dealing with some health issues for a month or so and haven't been in the studio very much - good to know that my big black cat Mouse is on guard keeping things ready for me to get back in there!

Empty Shelves?

 Remember last week when I cleaned off this bookshelf  so Margot would have more room for her Sassy Feet creations?

This wasn't what I had in mind!

Me and Mouse

I've never considered myself a pet person, even though I've had pets almost all my life. And homesteading for 18 years in east San Luis Obispo county, raising our own food, animals were a fact of life, rather than pampered pets. But now, at almost 60, I've fallen in love with my kitty. His name is Mouse (he was much smaller when we got him!) and he's a gigantic ball of fluffy black fur, with a darling bob-tail and liquid green eyes and I am totally smitten. I promise this won't turn into a blog about my cat - but just this once I had to share him with you.

From Ah! to Arrr!

Snicker-doodle (the blue tortoiseshell) and Pookie (the handsome black cat) - aren't they sweet enjoying the sunshine on the deck.

Everything's still fine, just a little stretching,

and licking,

but wait a minute...

Attack!!
