the kind of help we all can do without


dear linus,

i love you so dearly, but when you burrow through my fabric like a groundhog, it makes me upset. it's cute when you chatter to the bag of feathers, but then you rip it open, start sneezing, they get all over the room, and suddenly you're not so cute anymore. i'm not even gonna get started on how you sit on my lap at the sewing machine, dig your claws into the tulle and lace and pull with all your strength until either the fabric rips or the sewing needle breaks. cat, you're costing me a fortune and taxing my patience. golly, do i ever love you, but can't you give it a rest?

with all my love,
adopted second mommy susie

last night chris was doing his first photo shoot for his etsy shop, which i could tell even without looking because this darling man who never does anyhting but love and kiss the kitties was yelling at them like a crazy man! cats just looooooooove to help youout when you are trying to do detail-oriented Etsy tasks... especially those that involve tape measures, in the case of my Mouchie!!!

when you did the inside shoot, wasn't he batting at you from behind your backdrop? so funny! glad you know what i'm talking about.

linus ripped the feathers open again this morning while i was in the shower. they were all over, like an explosion, with him sitting in what was left of the bag, sneezing uncontrollably. serves him right!
