Kitty Kapers

Today I got my machine back. It will be so nice to sew with a nice smooth machine again, and I can get back to my art pieces.
A good thing was, I mentioned that I rug hook, to the owner of the store. She just got a kit and has no idea what to do, so I am going to teach her how to hook and she is going to give me free lessons on my machine, so that will be nice.

I finished my new piece, but this time I antiqued it first to see how it looked before I stitch it up. Just in case I want to make any changes, I still can tomorrow.

As usual the cats keep me amused or annoyed, depending on how you look at it;)

Dora does things to annoy me, I can tell by the look on her face and that big smirk, lol.
Today it was opening drawers and making a ladder, then opening the cupboard to get in.
I usually spend the night closing doors and cupboards, no idea why she does it, other then to annoy me and her way of saying, that is what you get for letting Moki live here.



I got rid of the fountain since they weren't that interested in it, so I am back to using the faucets again. Not only does moki like to drink from it, but he takes a bath too. He sticks his head into the water and lets it run all over him, then he cleans himself. I feel like the mother of triplets, if one isn't wanting my attention, another is;)

More Moki!

I spent today work and reworking a new punch I am making.
I didn''t like the way it came out, so went with a more textured look with heights.
Hopefully I will finish it tomorrow, there is only so much unpunching and repunching that I will do;)

Moki is usually happy and content living with us. He has his moments and does the howling and crying routine at the door, but then he calms down again. In the cellar he makes the weirdest howling sound, it sounds just like words, lol. Our town shelter has a traveling vet and they made an appointment for Moki next week, so he will get fixed then and hopefully not want to roam anymore. I cannot afford a vet bill right now, so they are paying for it and later when they do their annual auction, I can make some pieces that they can sell, to help them out.

Moki seems to have too much of a fascination with water, he spends most of his time at the sink. I am thinking I need to buy an indoor fountain for the kitties, lol. With three tap water cats, I cannot keep the water running all day;)

You can teach an old cat new tricks.

Izzy always watches as Dora goes up to the sink for a drink.
Dora only drinks out of sinks, Izzy prefers toilet water and dirty sink water, ugh.
Today Izzy got up and watched Dora this time and when Dora left, Izzy finally decided to give it a go.

Here she is contemplating how the water is coming out and how she is going to get some herself.






She finally braved sticking her tongue in the water. I had to do a drip for her, Dora prefers the water to run slowly.



As you can see, she is very happy with her new found skill. I guess I need to buy an indoor fountain for them;)
