Bear Sunday

[susandennis]

The entry is coming is being written with considerable help. I picked Zoey out after a multi-day, multi-shelter kitty shopping spree. She was really the only one who snuggled up to me so she got the nod. It was only after I brought her home that I learned that black cats are right up there with old sick cats in the Last To Be Adopted shelf. Tomorrow is a big day for black cats.



The hamburger place was not a fail but not a glorious success. They let me order it rare but then over cooked it. The nice lady asked me, after I had finished, it it was rare enough and I allowed as how it wasn't and she said "Oh, I'm sorry. Next time, tell us and we'll give it more time on the grill." Er, ah that's some kind of miracle cure right there... turn an overcooked burger into a rare one with more time on the grill... The fries were spectacular and the place was nice. I will go back but I'm still on the hunt for a great burger.

I got a chopped salad to go and had half for dinner tonight. I'll have the other half for lunch tomorrow. It was pretty decent.

Otherwise, I sat on my ass in front of the TV all damn day. I watched the movie Joy which was abotu what I expected - kinda like the burger, actually - not great, not horrible. It's been on my TiVo for a while.

I got one bear finished and one bear done. I'm happy with the bear production this month. Jeannie - the adoption lady - always wants more bears.





The camera on my new phone is really outstanding but, frankly, does not to anything better with these doll/bear photos. Of course, I don't get too precious with the setup. As soon as the cat moves off the spot, I set them up and shoot. That first one is actually a very bright green with a coral sweater. And, of course, the background is exactly the same in both. Oh well.

I am also the proud owner of a black cat...Keano.
Facebook often publish a memory (photograph ) from one, two or more years ago.
Coincidently todays "memory" from 2015 is Keano sitting on top of me.
I will publish the pic here later.

I've had two black cats and they both have been my favorite of all of the cats I've ever had.

I got one bear finished and one bear done.

I had to read this a couple of times before I figured out what the difference was.

[susandennis]

Yeah, that phrase was about a muddled as they come!

[onelargecat.livejournal.com]

LOL I've read it several times and I still have no idea what the difference is!

[susandennis]

Oh dear... it means I had one that had been started earlier and I finished it. And then I made from from beginning to end.

I will be more clear
I will be more clear
I will be more clear
I will be more clear
I will be more clear
I will be more clear

Black cats are my favourite. If we ever have another cat it will be a black male. Our current cat is a very temperamental white and black female (not chosen by me; and chosen for looks rather than personality, which was a big mistake).

Your bears are just adorable!

[susandennis]

Thank you! As you can see from their faces, they think they are pretty cute, too.

It was only after we got Misty and Zebedee that I discovered that black cats are supposedly hard to rehome. I've had 3 black and white and we had one black when I was a teenager but I've always liked all cats regardless of colour. Of course over here black cats used to be seen as lucky but now the unlucky status seems to be bleeding into our catty culture too.

Turns out that Zoey is my second black cat. My first one was the sweetest cat I ever met in my life. I'm with you - cat colorblind!

I like the cat photo. Also, your dolls are well-made.

[susandennis]

Thanks!

Do you donate your dolls and bears?

They are precious.

[susandennis]

Thank you and yes, they all go to The Baby Bank of Seattle

I've been volunteering at an animal rescue for several months, and it's been interesting. The kittens of course get scooped up pretty quickly. As for the adults, well, it's sad seeing them linger, unwanted. A lot of them have been there for years. I can understand why with some of them, the ones with prickly personalities. But then there are the sweet, relatively young cats (of varying colors) that also get no attention. Oh, well.
