Perfect Weather!

Rusty The weather was just perfect today! Yesterday after work I saw one of the stray kitties. He came at 5:00 on the dot. (Does he know when the vet's office closes?) So I hurried to call them and they waited on me. He was pretty easy to get into a carrier--didn't need a trap for him. So he spent the night at the vet and I picked him up this afternoon. They all talked about what a sweetie he is!! After I brought him home there was that giant dog in my yard again. She made me nervous at first, but she is just a big baby too. I still kind of worry about her getting after my cats, but she doesn't even act like she notices them, even when they hiss at her!



I sat on the porch this afternoon and snapped pictures of my kitties lying in the sun, bathing and just being lazy. This is Rusty in the first picture. So handsome! Then it looks like Elvis had his own little photo shoot! ha!

There are more....I had a hard time deciding which ones to share. Elvis is so photogenic though--I love taking his picture!



Dill This is a crazy picture of Dill, isn't it? Ha! I guess its the sun shining through his hair? I love it....He has been living outside most of his life--he used to get to come in to visit until he started marking everything in my house....including some antique books. That was the last time he came in. He just couldn't help himself and I couldn't keep an eye on him all the time. I really felt kind of bad about it though. Lately he has been scratching at the back door when he hears me get in bed, so I let him in for a few minutes, carry him around and pet him. I wonder why he started asking to come in?



Dusty I snapped this picture of Dusty last night--she has such long thick fur in the winter! I have to bring her in and try to brush her hair--I know she looks kind of mad in that picture, but that's just how she looks. ha ha! She's Elvis' Momma....can you see the resemblance?



Now....I really must get to those dolls. They are begging for some clothes!! I meant to paint in my studio today too...it was just too hard to work inside with such nice weather!!

  1. It was a beautiful day here also and I spent most of it outside. Cut my grass and did some cleaning up in my back yard. Going to do more this afternoon when my son comes over to help with weedeater.
    Your babies look like they are really enjoying the sunny day. They are lucky to have such a good mama.
