Wacky Weather




September is cat show time, again.
Since I was already working on a fire theme
for an installation I'm calling "Nostalghia",
I decided to run with it for the cat show, too.



Firestarter is enjoying some truly wild and wooly weather,
on the usually serene grounds of the KittyCats main store.




I was surprised to see no fewer than 
3 tornadoes in the kittycats displays.

So far, "Firestarter", (AKA Eduardo),
appears to be the only cat harboring
a fondness for incendiary pleasures.










Brave Janet



Ivy Norsk's "Brave Janet" 

'"Brave Janet travels through the gloom to rescue her love Tam Lin 
from the Faerie Queen at the crossroads ("Miles Cross") at midnight. 
Based on a scene from the Ballad of Tam Lin. 

My favorite line, "I'll come and go by Carterhaugh and ask no leave of thee." 
Janet is brave, never asks permission from men nor faeries, ventures forth 
under harrowing conditions, and does not cave under pressure.'




More to come.....

Genghis and the Photobomber




Genghis the megapuss wasn't exactly a lonely boy.







He had plenty of other kittycat playmates,
he simply didn't have any his own size.







He dreamed of someday finding a pal he didn't 
have to worry about stepping on all the time


  




One day, I brought home a bandit girl.
As tiny as she was, I knew she'd grow up to be
a megacat Goddess worthy of Genghis' attention.






And suddenly, the world was full 
of megapussi looking for a home.



Minerva the tawny toyger was next to arrive on the island.







Following right on her heels was Marlowe, 
la Tigre Blanca, Moon Goddess extraordinaire.








The tiny Island is now crawling with megapuss girls of 
all colors and sizes, each one trying to catch Genghis' eye.








(They also do their best to catch my attention,
as anyone with kittycats already knows.)








All of the kittycats love to pose in front of the camera,
but the bandit with the firey eyes is the biggest camera hog of all.







She's loves to photobomb the other cats,
As soon as I have a nice shot lined up, 
in jumps the photobombing bandit. 







Don't tell her I said so, but she is a very photogenic cat,







Now that the island is home to Genghis' megapuss harem, 
he's looking for ways to escape the girls and go off on his own.







I introduced him to my flying tree. 
Up he climbs, and he and I take off to explore the grid.






I'm sure that there will be many adventures to follow...

White Le Tigre Day




Oh boy oh boy!
I found a Mega White le Tigre, just put out for sale.
She was even affordable.

I am dancing in circles over my good fortune.
Genghis looks pleased, too.







Maybe more than pleased....






I tried to name her Ishtar, but she wan't having any.
Her name is Marlowe, she told me, 
and that is that.



Marlowe it is.
