KIWI CAT


A very thoughtful customer of mine from New Zealand sent me this photo of her cat, "Professor Winston" showing me how he was trying to investigate when she opened the shipment from me. She said he showed his approval by promptly lying on the prints. I got a kick out of it. Thanks for the nod of approval, Professor Winston and thanks for passing this along, Robyn!

    adorable! our cat always goes for the good stuff, too-- only the new and exciting for her, and somehow she always knows exactly what we are most excited about.

    This work looks so great :)

    I'll be writing a very long letter with Annechovie items to Santa this year...

    Hi Anne,
    We used to have three cats, all gone now but, I always remember how ALL of them would sit on anything that you got out or were looking at. They are funny !
    I tell you another thing I LOVE about this photo ..... Robyn has an apple in her fruit bowl that is just starting to go rotten. It looks just like my fruit bowl looks sometimes !!!! haha. It's lovely to see ' real life ' in a photo!! XXXX

    Cats seem to "lay claim" to all the fine things in life....smiles.

    That is so cute! I know my cat thinks anything new in a box or package is for him and he will promptly sniff around or, if its a rug, lie on it like its his! ;-)

    A very artistic Cat. Sorry to hear about the awful snow blizzard New
    Zealand just had. They say it was
    kind of freaky and hadn't had a storm like it in 70 years.

    Love the cat! Hey, I just noticed your stamp in the margin. Great idea! And the mugs. Might have to check those out.
    Hope you're enjoying the last of summer.

    Anne,

    My kitty kids use to do this as well with all my fabric. They'd lay on my sewing cabinet as I sewed away. Gently placing their paws on the fabric I'd push to the other side. My tabbies both had green eyes too! What a great treat in life the love of animal friends for life they compliment art.
