Artists' Show First Night Shenanigans - Those Crazy Cats

While waiting for customers on a rainy Friday night, Nico and Ana couldn't resist Karen's glass.

Ana went first into a lovely transparent pink vase.

Could Nico be far behind?






Of course not, check out Mr. Casual in blue!

I hope they're not bored today, because further play poses will surely be on the way.  It's a good thing they're so soft and plush, with all that glass around.



Artists' Sale Weekend - Come One, Come All

I'm not surprised that the wind and promised rain have arrived on the day Karen and I will be driving around putting up signs for our artists' sale weekend.  It is November, after all.

We'd love it if you would come visit us.  There will be cookies and cider in the kitchen and we get tired of hearing our own stories at some point over the course of the weekend, so come and share yours!  It's a great chance to buy about as locally as you can get - from the women who created the items; and you'll get a jump on holiday shopping in the most congenial of atmospheres.

Who Will Blink First?

The staredown.  Ana and mouse meet for the first time and try to psych each other out.

Who will win this epic battle? 

Run, little mouse, run!

The Tophats Keep Coming

I just love this Tophat design.  It looks great in every size, and you can dress it up with all kinds of motifs.  Admittedly, sometimes I get lost in motif creation mode and don't get much else done.

I could try to get Folded Ear Cat to model my creations, but if you know cats, you know how that would turn out.  There would be blood.  It would be mine. 

Percy and outdoor stone cat are much more amenable.  Totally silent, in fact.  That's very handy in a model.

Nico's Sunday Adventures

Sunny and crisp this morning, so Nico got himself up a tree.

Somebody's feeling quite proud of himself!

Is this a yoga position?  Cats get into the funniest positions.

No more pictures!  Can't a cat get a little peace up his favorite tree?

Okay, one more shot, inside with a comfy friend.

Folded Ear Cat's Best Tunnel Ever

I bought Folded Ear Cat a lovely crinkly round tunnel, which she rubs her face against and has walked through a few times.  Then came her favorite tunnel ever - a nice, sturdy box that brought a new appliance to our home.

It's long and doubly thick so I tap my fingers over it, make it rock back and forth, but she knows she's still safely hidden inside.
