Yesterday

A flat cat again! I don't know where it's coming from because I haven't changed anything. Papaya is very snuggly when she's feeling this good, so I've had a few lovely cat naps recently with my arm wrapped around her. Her favorite thing is to sleep with her forehead firmly nestled into the palm of my hand, which is fine until she suddenly wakes up and wraps her front paws around my wrist to go in for the kill :lol:

Just now I was doing some photography of Etsy stuff, for which I use the natural light in my bedroom with a big white pillow as the background. The problem was that as soon as I set down the pillow on the edge of the bed, Papaya decided we were playing "hide the cat" and kept trying to burrow under the pillow. I always laugh when I see people selling stuff that declares "made in a pet-free home" because for one, my problem is usually keeping the cat out of the product photo, and secondly, to me "pet-free home" is an oxymoron - how can a place be a home without a pet anyways?? cat_pet_icon

Those Papaya snuggles sound nice! I'm always worried about how many hairs I'm sending off with my Etsy orders. Maybe we should write, "made in a home with cats and numerous cat hairs."

A very sedate day for Papaya. What does she have planned? nailbite_smile :lol: That's great that she's feeling good today. Why is it that cats disappear when you want to take their picture and are total pests when you don't? Maybe you could try acting like you are taking her picture, then she'll hide. :lol:

Nice on the flatness. Maybe next time Papaya can try being flat on the blue floor. How sweet with the cat naps, until she wakes up. :lol:

Oh, I know - I knit stuff, so it's probably "99% superwash merino, 1% calico cat hair" although I do try to keep as much of her out of the projects as possible :lol: I figure hey, cat hair/angora/alpaca/wool are just from different animals . . . natural fibres :lol:

Totally - as soon as I started to focus on her, she was under the quilts again! I end up deleting a lot of out-of-focus pics of her for exactly that reason!

Well, she is starting on blue for PM so maybe she'll give it a try!

Thanks for visiting!

I agree that a home is not a home without a pet, and I have a magnet on my fridge to prove it I think everything I own has at least one cat hair on it, no matter if I scrubbed, washed, vacuumed, and dusted it! :lol: I used to be much more of a neat freak, before I had a cat :lol: I hope sweet Papaya keeps up the beautiful greens :mrgreen:

Papaya is looking awesome!!! LOL on trying to keep her out of the Etsy pictures....you are SO right - a home is not a home without a pet. Have a great night, Amy!

My personal sort of weird favorite is finding shed whiskers. They're so springy! :lol:

I have no idea why she is doing so well at the moment. But I'll take it! :mrgreen:

Looking great tonight Papaya! Way to keep mama guessing
Too sweet about Papaya resting her forhead in your hand cat_pet_icon Maybe not so sweet when she wakes up tho :lol: And you are so right. How could anywhere be a home without a pet. I have a little sign that says 'Every life should have nine cats'. I just love that.
Good luck with your photo shoots. Maybe you should advertise the calico hair? Might become all the rage! :lol:
