Kitty Pics

I know it's been a while since I've posted anything! (sorry!)  We had a big move and have been adjusting!  But things are wonderful!  I've been doing A LOT of sewing lately!  If you are interested in seeing what I've been up to... check out my Doodle Clouds facebook page!  I'm sewing zipper pouches, tote bags, cute little coin purses, and other what-nots!  I'd love it if you checked it out!  Wanted to share a few kitty pics!

How to bath a kitten in Dawn video!

My first video tutorial! My little kitties got fleas from Mama kitty, Sunshine and so I had to bath them in Dawn detergent to kill the fleas! I hope you enjoy and I would love to hear your feedback!

Meet Sunshine! My new kitty!

This is our new baby, Sunshine! She showed up at Granny's house several days ago and we just had to bring her home!  She looks just like our late, Cornbread, except he had green eyes and she has orange eyes!  She is such a little sweetheart and has made great friends with everyone in our little family here!  Welcome to the family Sunshine!!

Ally cat in window!

Sometimes ally likes to get crafty with me!

Ally!

I took these snapshots of Ally the other day in my Garden Shed, just wanted to share!

Hanging with all my Pets!

Sunday the temperature was nice... almost 65! Nice enough to sit outside for a little while and enjoy the sun with all my children around me!! You'll see Big Mama the hen, Buster the rooster, their baby biddie, then Francie, my 6year old shih-tzu, Ally my kitty, and Emma my other 6year old shih-tzu!
AAhhhh.... love these babies!

We Love You Cornbread

We are heartbroken over the loss of our kitty, Cornbread.  He put up a great fight through this last ordeal, but we couldn't bear to see him suffer.  It was the most heart-wrenching thing I have ever done, but the prognosis would have been worse for him.  We we're blessed to have him in our life.  We have so many wonderful memories of him and all the silly things he did!  He is resting peacefully in a special spot in our yard where he can always keep watch over everything and guard over his kingdom!
I think about him constantly and miss his sweet face every minute of the day.  He was always right there with me and following me every step I made no matter where I went.  He was a big part of our family and we will miss him terribly.  Every day.  Every night.  We love you so much Kitty.  Cornbread, this is from Mama's heart to you, my boy....

Don't be sad you had to end my pain,
and know that you will see me once again.
God's given me a place to wait for you,
a cozy cloud and salmon too!

The angels are happy to stroke my fur,
and they all seem to love it when I purr.
I'm no longer sick so I am glad,
please don't fill your days by being sad.

I know in time that you will see,
the kindness that you did for me.
Although my tail its last has waved,
from pain and suffering I've been saved.

Today you gave something to heaven
that heaven once gave to you.
Your sweet, your precious,
and faithful companion, "Cornbread".

He'd been with you for many years,
his loyalty did show.
You loved him and he loved you back,
but now he has to go.

Do not despair for he'll be there,
when your time's at the end.
There just beyond the Pearly Gates,
awaits your furry friend.

You kissed his head, buried your face in his neck,
and whispered goodbye as a part of you died.
May heavens arms hold you, softly my love,
until Mama can hold you in Heaven above.

Cornbread crossed the rainbow bridge on Monday, August 30, 2010. 
Rest in peace my boy.

I love you kitty, and will never ever ever forget you.

Playful Kitty!

I was looking for Cornbread and finally found him napping on top of our makeshift temporary chicken coop! David plans to build us a "chickaminium" very soon! Kitty was feeling very playful and tried to catch the string on my camera!! He's such a ham! We only had to explain to him 1 time in the very beginning when we got the chickens that he was not to hunt them. And he has been such a good boy! I don't even worry about it!

Kitty helps in the Garden!

I am so happy that spring is here and I can get out in my Garden Shed! The other day I started a few pots with some petunias, geraniums, & some purslane. Cornbread really enjoys helping with my plants, can't you tell?

What? You can't see him?  Here's a close-up for you!  Well, maybe he's dreaming about helping me!!  Oh, in case you are wondering, he is about 18 lbs of pure love and affection!!

Happy Thanksgiving!

It's been a while since I've posted and I'm sorry, but I have some really cool stuff in the pipeline that you'll get to see very soon!  I'm so excited to share it with you and I can't wait!  I'm working on 3 paper projects that you will get to see very shortly after Thanksgiving!  Then after the first of the year there will be a **big** surprise!
So for now, I wanted just to take a little minute to say Happy Thanksgiving!  Here is a pic of our (not so little, 17lb) kitty, Cornbread, sitting by the front porch!  He's our yellow coon!

See you after Thanksgiving!!  Meow!

The girls enjoyed ribs too!

David spoils them so bad! And they love it! They went crazy over their treats!
Emma is a little more well mannered than Francie!




Cornbread got his share of ribs too! This was him cleaning up after his feast!

Don't sniff my butt!

Cornbread tolerates alot from the girls but sometimes he's just tired of having his butt sniffed. Don't worry though, he didn't actually even touch Francie! Just scared her. My baby. =(

Cornbread

I spotted Cornbread sitting on the John Deere tire and wanted to get a good shot of him. This was the only one I got.
When he saw me coming he jumped right down to come say hello!

 

Cornbread!

This is our home security system! Cornbread! He hangs out all over our place! We try to keep him fed b/c, as you can see, he is about to starve to death! He is SO friendly, you literally cannot take a step without him under your feet. He will follow you everywhere you go. The other day he helped me plant bulbs out by the barn. I'm so allergic to him but I can't help but love him! He's a really good cat!
