It’s a Cat Week.

It seems much of my week has revolved around cats. First, Ron Weasley is losing his hair again so I had to get him dosed up on Advantage. During the summer he loses his big mane and fluffy tail but it's growing back now...just in patches. He looks like a homeless cat, so I have to concentrate on getting him back in shape so someone doesn't take him to the animal shelter. He's a lot of trouble.

As usual, I don't know what he's doing here.

Secondly, it was my sister's birthday today and I told her to watch the mail for her present. "Is it something homemade?" she asked. Turns out, she was hoping for a painting of the new kitten that has replaced her children in her affections. She's  really going to be disappointed when she opens New Moon: The Board Game. Lastly, I am doing a trilogy of paintings for a client and all the paintings are of the same tabby (as I might have mentioned, I have a soft spot for tabbies.) She sent me very interesting shots, two of which are extreme close-ups. This is the second painting and I'll post them all together when they're finished.
