I just listed this painting on Etsy. It is called "Fishy, Fishy in a Brook", Daddy catch it with a hook. Mama fry it in a pan and baby, baby eat it like a man. I always loved when my Dad would sing that to me when I was little.

I also want to thank everyone for the kitty advice. I am trying to let go of my fears and see what happens as they get together. I told the kids the other night that he will either, kill her, eat her or kiss her. I don't know which. Nino was like, if he ate her wouldn't that be killing her. NO. He could eat her alive, like just her ear.

This week I went and got my hair cut off. I did not exactly ask for it. I thought I had way more than this when I went in. I guess I was too wishy washy in the chair and she decide to take it all off. After I went home I remembered that my husband likes longer hair. Oops. I pretty much look like a boy right now, but it is kind of fun.

I wish this was "Our House" with two cats in the yard getting along. I have my water gun loaded and I am trying desperately to socialize the new cat with the old one. I have spent so much time with this it is ridiculous. I can not believe how he makes a bee line for her every chance he gets. What is up? His hormones should be lower by now. I really can not tell what he wants from her. I have never had this problem with other cats. I feel so bad for Tamale having to stress with this. She is just an old lady that wants to sleep. I can't tell if he just wants to play? I wonder if another kitten would help. Do two wrongs ever make a right?

A few new paintings on Etsy and a boy still dreaming of a girl.

This painting is up on Etsy. "The Orange Cat Club".


A week ago we invited a stray young man cat into our home. He is very sweet and gentle, but very much in love with Tamale. She, of course, wants nothing to do with him so we are keeping them separated for now. He has just been neutered and I have heard it can take 30 days for his hormones to mellow out, but for now, he is never far from her door in hopes of getting a glimpse of the sweet sleeping beauty that lies within.





Here is a little peek of what goes on all day.
