We had a surprise storm late today, fast and noisy and dark, with lots of rain and wind, and then we had a neighbor’s tree in our yard. More storms came later, not as bad as the first, but bad enough to lose our electricity again. What else for me

In a turnabout of care, Mewsette gently gives her little mom a bath by the sunny window. Mimi deserves a little gentle care from her kids now and then, and Mewsette is always good for that. The lilac is full and green outside the window and the morning sun so

I guess that’s what brothers are for. Or it could just be that Bean dozed off, sitting up, looking out the window, while Giuseppe decided to watch me in the kitchen. Bean’s got a few extra lumps on his outline because he moved. Click here to see other daily sketches.

Giuseppe and Mr. Sunshine were hanging together again, though in a slightly different place in the kitchen. It looks as if Sunshine has fallen asleep again, but Giuseppe is quite alert looking out the window—so alert, in fact, that I lost track of his profile in all the times he

Cookie and Mimi were probably just enjoying the sun on this day in 2009, but I also appreciated them keeping others’ prying paws from my precious tomato seedlings reaching for the sun on the table by this window. I have no idea what the conversation was about that I interrupted,

A sweet one from 2011… Mewsette always makes these little overtures to Cookie, and you can see by Cookie’s reaction that it’s not entirely well-received. You can also see that Mewsette is easily twice as big as Cookie and can take a beating from a senior tortie girl who acts

Just needed a bit of color today. Mewsette and Giuseppe were curled in tight balls and sleeping tucked up close together, Mewsette’s chin on his hip and his paw over his face. What was I sketching a year ago? Two Green Cats Giuseppe is dark green, Jelly Bean is light
