Happy New Year with Sparklies: From A Year Ago

Because we’ve been preoccupied with Cookie, we couldn’t create a new year wish for you, but Mewsette was so beautiful in her photo shoot last year she deserves another year of greeting our readers! On behalf of my household of kitties, Mewsette wishes you and yours a happy new year!

I’m One Tough Cookie

Someone’s feeling better! Cookie the Lioness is on her log in the wilderness and all is right with the world. It’s just a short step up but considering she could barely walk the other day, this is an accomplishment. Cookie is surprised anyone would expect less. I wish I could

Sweetly Sleeping: From A Year Ago

Another post from the archives, one of my favorites of Cookie, sleeping with her head on my arm so I can’t move. I’ve been looking at Cookie sleep for 19 years, but I could look at a face like this, nestled in the ruffles on my sweater, all the rest

Muted Colors: From A Year Ago

Cookie is holding her own, getting a slow start today and somewhat declined from yesterday; still, we’re not on our way out. Thanks to everyone for the love and good wishes. They sustain us both. One of my favorite photos, ever. Was, and still is, scheduled to become a watercolor;

Cookie’s Biggest Fan: From A Year Ago Today

Yes, the “big little sister” began her guardianship of Cookie last year and still takes care of her. Has Mewsette adopted Cookie? I’ve often noticed Mewsette being near Cookie, sitting, sleeping, bathing, sometimes trying to do a gentle nuzzle or head-butt which is summarily rebuffed by Cookie. However, I’ve lately

Can’t You Fix This?: From A Year Ago Today

A year ago yesterday, Cookie sets off through last year’s “light dusting”. Cookie is losing her patience with this winter thing. It used to be okay, she used to enjoy plowing through snow and getting it all over her fur, but her 18-year-old paws are in no mood for ice

Just a Dusting

No big snows here, we just got a dusting in our back yard and Cookie is glad not to have to plow through snow to get to her favorite sunny spot, winter or summer. Despite our visit to the back yard this morning, Cookie is not well today, but that’s

Daily Sketch: Blue Cat, Green Cat

This is the other sketch from yesterday, a pencil with watercolor, following the color cues from yesterday’s colored pencil sketch with Mr. Sunshine in blue and Giuseppe in green as per their “kitten colors”. I find I still have to rely on a pencil sketch underneath a watercolor after I

He’ll Never Know What Hit Him…

Somehow I don’t think Jelly Bean is thinking about how much he loves his brother Mr. Sunshine. I think he sees a target drawn right on the back of Mr. Sunshine’s head. This is how it begins, the daily wrestling match, it’s all Jelly Bean’s doing as he sits on
