Cats for Adoption: Mimi Says, “For Mother’s Day, Spay Your Cat.”

Mimi waited until today to give her annual Mother’s Day address along with our weekly post about cats for adoption, featuring several homeless rescued kittens…if all cats were spayed before reproducing, there would be no homeless kittens to post. This is Mimi’s wish as a mother of 24 kittens. Much

Daily Photo Reprise: Keeping Peaches Warm, 2009

Peaches apparently makes a great pillow. She was 19 years old at this time, but that made no difference to the two-year-old Fantastic Four. In the cold weather, Peaches had always slept in front of the heater vent here in my office/living room, but generously shared it with the kids

From the Archives: Little Ones, 2008

Here, at ten months old, already inspiring with their shapes and habits. Above, Jelly Bean turns to look out the “old” bathroom window, and below, Giuseppe and Jelly Bean explore a little bit, from this date in 2008. They were no longer required to “stay” in the bathroom, but still

A Little Rescue: Lucy, Charlotte, Angus and Donal

Mimi discusses a certain litter of kittens in today’s rescue story as we continue to celebrate Lucy’s birthday.   I’d like to tell you about the kittens I gave birth to in April 2006 including Lucy, Charlotte, Angus and Donal because Mama Bernadette came to get them as she did

From the Archives: Happy Birthday, Lucy!

Today, as far as I can tell, was the birthday of Lucy, a little black kitten who came into my life in 2006 and changed so much with her life, and her loss. These photos were taken just days before her first birthday, in March 2007, when she was playing

The Spring Kitten

I once had a pure white long-haired kitty with pea green eyes and a pink nose named Sally. She was also completely deaf, and completely fearless; without distraction, she lived in her own little world, full of sleep and joy and play. She was the inspiration for many sketches, paintings

Daily Photo Reprise: It’s All About Mr. Sunshine

I use copies of both of my 2013 calendars around my house. In my studio, I turned the page in “Compositions in Black and Green” and saw silly Mr. Sunshine with his characteristic head tilt in a very popular photo, and several other similar silly photos, including one of him

From the Archives: Kissing Kittens, 2007

The first iteration of a heart-shaped nap? Look at those teeny claws and pomegranate toes! Taken on August 3, when the Fantastic Four, shown here, were eight days old. I hadn’t given them their ear-paint yet so I’m not exactly sure which is who, but judging from personality I would

Mimi Says, “I Love Being Spayed.”

Much as I adore Mimi and the Fantastic Four, if I had to live without them because Mimi had been spayed before she had any kittens at all, I could do it. In fact, I wouldn’t have known most of the cats who lived with me if their mother had been

From the Archives: Mewsette and Jelly Bean Are “In”, 2008

They learned very early on that my desk was the place to be. Here are six-month-old Mewsette and Jelly Bean hanging together in my inbox, which is holding just about its maximum capacity in kittens. Mewsette looks cool and confident, but Bean looks as he often does, a little confused.
