Not a drop of freezing rain, a snow-flake or a tree-bound squirrel goes un-noticed in this house.
Annie and Audrey spend a lot of their day 'hunting'.
until Audrey get's side-tracked by mom's twitching tail and goes for it.
Only to be chewed-out in an instant.
speaking of side-tracked, I was going by an antique shop again and in I went....
I can't help myself. I'm weak, I tell ya.
Came home with a lamp shade and two more tea-cups.
They will look fine with my 'Grace Kelly' tea-pot and I love the shape of them.
And I have a new favorite tea called
Find it and try it. You'll like it.
Strange how a teapot can represent
at the same time the comforts
of solitude & the pleasures of company
...so true.
After the possible home for Annie and Audrey falling through, another woman was to call me on Friday and drop in to meet them. This woman was apparently looking for 2 cats to adopt together. She had no other pets and lived alone. She sounded promising. I waited all evening and never heard another thing.
I keep looking at these girls and wondering how I am going to be sure that where they go they will be kept together and their home will be a life-long, loving environment. Nothing's for sure, is it? It drives me nuts. I have had comments suggesting that I ask all my cat-sitting clients if they would like to adopt this pair of amazing cats.
I have asked and I keep my eyes open for anyone, who I know would make a wonderful home for them. At this point, everyone I know has the number of cats they are content with and I respect that.
My 4 cats are still doing well but Ed, God love him, will be 23 in May. Cali is heading toward 19 years and Lily not far behind Cali. Sierra is going on 11. Should I just keep these two beautiful cats and plan for them to be with us for the next 20 years (God willing)?
You just know I'm going to be one of those old ladies who croak and their poor family has to figure out what to do with the cats. But me without a cat or two or three...nonsense. I have to really think about this.
I best warn them now.;-)
When you leave a comment it will be included (if not already) in the names for my give-away tomorrow night.
Good Luck!
hugs, Deb
