Spooky yawn

Caught in a yawn, the cats are all in as my neighbours on both sides have both had bonfires. I’m rather annoyed. The closer neighbour had a very smoky, smelly fire, it’s meant the clothes on my line will need washing again. The one further down the road has a real blaze with black smoke billowing up from it at the moment.

I think they are burning an old tyre? I actually rang them up because there was nothing, then suddenly a whoosh of flame. I guess they poured some petrol on their fire? It frightened me and I was going to ring the fire brigade. I thought it was unattended but then I saw a shadowy figure through what’s left of my hedge after they hacked it back on their side!

So I’m stressed as I don’t want the cats to get hurt and the local hedgehogs may have been burnt 😢. Stay Safe X

I have so many cat ornaments dotted round the house. Some were gifts others I bought for myself. This is not a good photo of this white cat, but I like the way it’s legs are stretched out like a lion, or a sphinx. If I decided to get rid of some of my cats this is definitely one I would keep.

A cat moved into the warehouse where we held out art and craft show. It has a home in a local housing estate but I guess because the warehouse is heated it’s found a place to visit. The main problem is there is a ladder up to the loft space and on Saturday it climbed up and went to sleep!

There was a panic because they couldn’t lock up the building until it was found. Luckily someone bought some cat treats so it came down!

What have you been working on?

Nose to the grindstone

Getting ready for a small stall

At a craft fair

First one in months

I’m shattered!

I drew this in the 1980s I have it on the stairs and it’s badly faded. I might use filters to try and restore how it looks? It’s sad when you have created something but the sun destroys it over time. I don’t know if you can buy ink that is resistant to sunlight? Maybe?

Sitting pretty,

Cat in a box

Just had his tea

Now he can sleep

I’ll let him rest

And get the best

Afternoon kip,

With some of the catnip!

Two on an armchair

One one the floor

By the heater

So three tiers actually.

The Third too far away to fit

My companions

Warmth seeking

I’m saving money

Radiators only on a few hours

But they are happy….

Must be cold today

He’s sat on My knee four times

He’s just come up again

So at least one knees warm!

Oh! he’s just jumped down

Cold knees!

Medium cat (left) and large cat (right) like to sleep on this chair. Usually there is a single occupant, but tonight they are sharing. The little cat is on the floor just exploring to find somewhere to settle down.

I’m glad they tolerate and cope with each other, the small cat is nervous and sometimes has a paw raised to her, but there’s very rarely a squabble and usually they chase together to pay. I think I will go and settle down too. I’m struggling to keep my eyes open, the cats have the right idea. X

He snuck out you see…

Didn’t come back

For two days

I think he has a pad

A place to sleep

When he wants to be bad

Then I don’t see him

Which makes me sad!

Usually he comes back

Soaking wet

To have a wash, grub,

Then off again!
