Daily Photo: Listening to the Box

Mewsette is listening to the box.Mewsette is listening to the box. — Mewsette is listening to the box.

Mewsette is quiet and intense, waiting for the box to move her intuition to what is inherently the box’s inner self and purpose in the moment.

Yeah, right, if you understood that you’ve been following me for a while and understand Mewsette’s genius as a cardboard interpretation artist and her installations of inspired creations. More below.

My Cardboard Interpretive Artist has been feeling creative lately, and has formulated a new cardboard interpretation from my pile of scrap for recycling. Mewsette has a better idea for recycling and reuse than packing it off to the recycling place—making art!

Mewsette has worked a while and stops to listen again. She is totally feeling groovy.

More work to be done. There’s a spot in the back.

Ah, need to get this littlespot back here.

More listening.

Ah, another idea.

Four on the Floor

I think they’re melting into each other at this point (this afternoon in the studio).

Let’s Get Moving With That Breakfast, Lady

I posted these two photos on Facebook this morning. I was actually mixing a new batch of their raw food, and it took a little longer than I thought, but the light reflecting off the snow illuminated them so nicely! I did get breakfast done, in time. All enjoyed it, albeit later than expected.

We’ll Have Some of What You’re Having, 2014

three black cats — “And by the way, where are the treats for us?”

“We’ll have some of what you’re having because we deserve it. We work hard around here, raising these kittens you’ve forced on us. Raising kittens is a lot of work, and as you can see, we are even losing weight. So hand over the lunch, lady.

“And you can also start giving us treats on a regular basis. We know you are giving them by the bag to those two derelicts in the bathroom. And yet you choose to neglect the cats who spend their lives with you. You are a disappointment as a human.”

Should I feel a little threatened with all those glowing eyes on me? And three black cats? I’m not sure, but I do know I calmly finished eating my lunch. I haven’t yet seen anyone complain about raising kittens, in fact they all look like they are having a great time. And they were all carrying around an extra pound, possibly even a little more, and all this running and playing—oops, ninja training—has really trimmed them nicely since last September. Yes, I have been using treats with Bert and Ernie—it’s amazing how a food bribe can change a reluctant kitty’s attitude about the value of humans in feline society.

Giuseppe, especially, looks awesome.

Long Shadows, 2013

two black cats in sunlight black and white — Long shadows.

Light spills down between the cabinets from the back door and all those legs cast long shadows in an interesting composition as Giuseppe and Mr. Sunshine, enjoying his namesake, settle into the spot they’ve claimed.

Mimi’s Long Shadow, 2013

From this morning when we had a little bit of sun and Mimi was giving me the business for letting it get cold outside. I told her I was impressed that such a little cat could cast such a long shadow. She was unimpressed and went back inside, leaving me unsupervised.

Wordless Wednesday: Honeycrisp

I Have Vanquished the Blue Fuzzy!

Mewsette emerges into the sun with the blue fuzzy she has chased around and around and around my room until finally she captured it and presents it to me.

I am honored.

Her triumphal stance is priceless.
