Happy Catversary

Happy Catversary

Long time no write, folks.

Lots going on here at The Shoebox, and at some point I’m sure there will be a flurry of posts to tell you all about it.

But for MLK Jr. Day, as the children and I prepare to march in a celebration parade with hopes for a better world for all people, I decided to share pictures of cats.

Because that’s fun.

One year ago yesterday Waffles and MoonStar joined the family.

“Wow. It’s gone so quickly.” said Monkey.

Doesn’t time have that way about it.

MoonStar used to just sit nearby while we sewed.

Then she decided Monkey's new blanket was the best place in the world to rest.

Moonie has selected a random styrofoam castoff as her preferred resting place. And the above photo shows the difficulties of taking pictures of an all black cat.

Waffles is curled up on the cat bed on the right…his snuggle spot.

A better shot of Waffles.

MoonStar is the talkative one and Waffles is the squeaky one and they have both brought a tremendous amount of laughter and joy to our lives.

Oh, and worms, they have also brought worms, but let’s not focus on that today.

Happy Catversary.
