One small boy cat
One small girl kitty
One huge
He’s big
He takes up space
Sprawling across the bed
No room for me
I don’t want to shove him
But I want my bed.
He jumps off
Then my little girl cat
Jumps up
And sticks in her claws!
New paintings and regular art updates.

He looks like a kitten
Out in the sunshine
Flowers surround him
Lion hearted kitty
So full of life
But now in shadow.
Cats should be infinite
Beings of magic
Limitless
But as they say
*all good cats must come to an end”
Nine lives almost used up.
I can’t believe he will be gone.

My Cat is not well. He has heart failure. He’s on medication but is off his food. Just got to look after him. He’s lost weight, not in any pain. He sat on my chest for an hour this afternoon, purring, nuzzling my hand, but I can see he’s deteriorating. I think I might have to take him back to the vets tomorrow.
I’ve had him for 8 years as a rescue cat, so I don’t know his actual age. He’s so loving. I will miss him deeply when he goes.

My old boy cat is getting thin. He is on medication for his heart, but that seems to be making him thinner. I don’t know his actual age because he was a rescue cat about 8 years ago. I didn’t find out his age then but he was fully grown. I’m having to accept he won’t be around for much longer. I’m giving him him lots of treats. He’s getting small meals but as often as he wants. I can’t make him eat but I can try and tempt him. At least he can sit in the sun if he wants.

A lady called Mara on Threads was offering to paint quick sketches of cats so I sent a picture of one of mine. She’s done a rapid watercolour sketch and it’s so full of character that I quite like it, it’s charming. I hope she doesn’t mind me sharing. X

Argh! My cat is on tablets twice a day for heart failure. I mix the tablet with water and use a small syringe to get him to swallow it. I forgot I don’t have a lens on the right side of my glasses. So when I squirted the syringe half went in my eye! I have washed my face and doused my eye with water, then used my antibiotic eye drops… I hope I haven’t done any real harm!

Sometimes called Gussy goo, also Buss puss, my littlest cat has many nicknames varying depending on my mood. She’s a sweet little cat and likes sticking her claws in my leg. She often gets through to the skin so I have to fend her off. She loves to nuzzle me for a few minutes but doesn’t stay for long. She was a rescue cat, one of about 20 that lived with an old lady, so I don’t think she got much attention and so she’s not that bothered to being fussed. She will sleep on the bed with me but usually gets off again after 20 minutes.
Like all my cats she’s black and white with piercing golden green eyes. A resl character.


My Cat won’t perform
He doesn’t do tricks
He’s not cute or cuddly
Won’t chase after sticks
But he is loving
Likes to purr
Sleeps most of the day
With nice soft fur.

He twirled around
Danced into a ball
Finding a snug corner
On the chair.
Spinning and twisting
Slipping into sleep
Nose under tail.
Comfy, warm, sweet.

Cuddly cat
Sits on my knee
Purring and happy
For all to see
He is like a loaf
Paws tucked under
Eyes closed tight
And no wonder
Been out all day
Playing and running
Rolling in the grass
His fur coat sunning
Trying to rhyme
His story together
Is really hard
Whatever the weather!
