Go Orange!
Today is the ASPCA's Go Orange Day in conjunction with their month long emphasis on prevention of cruelty to animals.
In honor of Go Orange Day, all the cats had a photo session. This is Violet in one of the neckties I offer in my Etsy shop. Doesn't it appear that Violet is the purrfect model, and this picture only took a minute to capture? Think again.
This is Samoa - the diva of our house. She would pose for photos all day long. That is why she is the diva!

Cruelty to animals is one of my biggest pet peeves. I've owned animals that were previously owned by terrible people. I will never understand why an animal is abused. All they want to do is give you love and companionship. They ask for so little in return, and the least we can do is treat them with the respect and dignity they deserve.
Cruelty can be something as simple as leaving a dog on a chain in a backyard. I see this everyday when I drive down one of our nearby roads. The people have a fenced in yard, and yet the dog is on a chain. I'd love to put that owner on a chain in a yard, and let them see how it feels.
So, take the pledge to fight animal cruelty. You can do that on the ASPCA's website! Make a promise to yourself to set an example for others by never abusing an animal!

Circle Circle Dot Dot
I added this cute fabric flower pin to my Etsy shop today!
It is stinkin' adorable with a sparkly pink cotton fabric as the bottom layer, and a chocolate brown dotted cotton for the top layer. A lime green fabric yo-yo and a coordinating covered button hold it all together!
I like coming up with clever names for the items in my shop. I was having trouble deciding on something for this flower pin, so I did a little Googling to spark an idea. I had never heard the term Circle Circle Dot Dot before, but it comes from a children's playground song that goes:
Circle, circle.
Dot, dot.
Now you got your cootie shot
Have you ever heard that one before?

Zorro!
You never know what kind of stray cat will come wandering onto my front porch! Stray Cat #4 from my Etsy shop appears to be a mild mannered tabby.
However, when the sun goes down, he turns into Zorro - protector of the neighborhood! With his mask and cape, he will defend the property and protect us from invading herds of mice!

You didn't know mice traveled in herds, did you? Zorro was adopted by Pansy. She said to be on the lookout for a masked superhero. Luckily for her, one came by just in the nick of time!
