Daily Photo: It’s All About the Baskets

What happens when you have five cats and only four baskets.

After a weekend spent in the studio with my cats, this is how things worked out with the baskets. Over the two days I shared several photos on Facebook because they were killing me with their cuteness, but this one really was the grand finale.

Because Giuseppe was sleeping atop Mimi, eventually she had to get out from underneath him and settle in a separate small auxiliary basket that only fits her. But she did seem to enjoy looking at her children.

Earlier today four of them were so perfectly lined up in their baskets I had to get their photo.

All lined up.

“All lined up in their baskets. Sorry for all the basket photos. I’ve largely spent the weekend in my studio with my cats and they are so cute with these baskets I have to share it.”

This actually is the purpose of the baskets–to give them a safe place to observe me and to sleep while I’m working in here with paints and pastels and glue and all my other materials, and making and trimming prints and cards on various papers and so on. The chance of accidents is very high in a place like my studio, but to date we are accident free. And they are non-stop cute.

Then from last night…

“The baskets are slowly filling up for tonight’s napping marathon.”

Well, our weekend in the studio is about to end, and here’s looking forward to another one!
