As you may know, John and I are working towards having fur babies someday soon, but until then we are lucky enough to live vicariously through our new neighbours’ cats.




There’s a gorgeous, thin, orange marmalade female who likes to lay on my lap for pets in the morning. Then there’s also a curious, deep-green-eyed tom who peers into the window of my studio late at night, and happily takes neck scratches or a belly rubs during the day. Their sweet (or sometimes demanding) meows at our front door have become a welcome sound, and their soft fur, cuddly purrs and adorable personalities are a true pleasure to have around. I’m thrilled to have some nearby animals to hug and to draw.






I regularly walk around the block looking for cats to play with. I hope I can have one of my own, soon! Ginger and white kitties are my favourite.
I love your new feline friends! It’s great that you are happy in your new place. :)
