While working on my photographic skills (especially those involved in dealing with a black cat), I found Lil' Bit curled up on one of my camera bags. She likes to help me with everything...except sitting really still so I can practice on her. Still, this is a better shot than I have taken of her before. PS. Her right eye was injured as a tiny kitten, before we found … [Read more...]
{Almost} Wordless Wednesday
While practicing new camera skills a couple of days ago, Eppie jumped up in the window behind me. I just turned and started snapping, figuring I'd have too much light to catch a good image. Imagine my surprise when I got this 'two-for-the-price-of-one' reflection. And, while I love the reflection in the window, I love this child's blue green eyes even … [Read more...]
A Kitty and Her Ball
Cali was the first calico that ever adopted me. She had such a playful spirit, all of her fourteen plus years. She has since gone OTRB. This drawing was done in an art class, about five years ago, when I was trying to learn my way around soft pastels. Do your kitties love to play? … [Read more...]
Three More Days?
Is it possible that its still three more days until the weekend? Not that Bobbie works that hard mid-week but she appreciates the slower weekend pace that allows more time for tummy rubs. … [Read more...]
Kitty Affection
Once upon a time, I was exclusively a dog person. Cats were mysterious pets that other people enjoyed. I liked a good tail wag and lick on the hand, to say nothing of the boisterous welcome home parties. But, once I got to know my first cat, honestly, against my will, I was hooked. It took a long time for her to train me but the bottom line is you have to respect their … [Read more...]
Continuing “Box” Stories
Lil’ Bit here. Seems I got some bad press in this spot last week. Apparently, just because I like boxes and am pretty fast on my feet, some people thought I was selfish. Well, here is a photo of me and my brother, Maxie, [almost] contentedly sharing a new box. I may have gotten there a little before he did, as you can see. I’ve had time to relax a bit. … [Read more...]
Cat in a Box
"Mom got new wool which means a new box. Usually Lil' Bit lays on top of them to stake claim, even before they are opened. But, this time, she must have been asleep. I was in it before she even saw it. And I haven't left it for six days!" … [Read more...]
Sunny Days
The sun was so bright this morning and I got up front just in time to see it sneaking through the slats in the blinds. My hungry babies just happened to be sitting amongst the rays, inquiring about breakfast. … [Read more...]

Bobbie
Hi! My name is Bobbie and I’m a beautiful grey and white girl with piercing green eyes. I also have a bobtail! I’ve been with Moms for just over eight years now. I think another person took care of me for a couple of years before her but I don’t remember much about it at this point. Moms says I’m a total sweetheart but I’m a little bossy, maybe even a nag … [Read more...]
Our new Profile Picture
Eppie is the beautiful little girl looking through the window of our Kudzu Cottage. The window is about 4 1/2 feet off the ground, there is no furniture under it. Eppie is a very small girl. So there is the mystery. I was on my way home one day and saw her in the window. I sneaked back around to capture this shot. To this day, I've never seen her get into the window or … [Read more...]
