This weeks' kitties

Living with a cat is so much more pleasurable when you can read their body language. This may help, a bit.

It was a busy day of kitty-sitting, house-sitting and dog-sitting. Yes, we are caring for our friends' dog, Helma again. She is a German Shepherd and a beautiful dog, inside and out. I promise some photos.

Bagheera is a mover so she's hard to photograph but I did catch her in the cat bag.

Sweet 'ol Smudge, now 14 years old has been a client of mine since she was a kitten. I enjoyed caring for her again this week.
She still has a kitten face

"Geesh, Smudge. You keep looking like that and I'm going to think there's a ghost in this house."
That's a little better.

Pretty, isn't she? Yes, I had two Smudge's on my client list this week. She's another regular and I have known her for many years, too. She is a grand cat and at her senior age she still loves to play with her mouse and have a treat or two.
This thing is so nuts I almost chased after it myself.

Tomorrow I start with two male tabbies and I'll be adding two bunnies to my list. Time to add some lettuce to the cat-bag.

hugs, Deb

  4. I'm fostering a kitten right now who was born with only a third of a tail & the third that he does have is crooked three or four times. I'm not sure he'll be able to do "tail-speak" with his nub but it's pretty easy to see at this point, he's one happy little guy!

  5. Beautiful Bagheera! She knows where all the good stuff is. Love the Smudges.
    I always wondered if your regulars recognize your cat bag from a previous cat sitting you've done for them?
