Crazy Animal Portraits in Mixed Media

 "Call me 'Cat' or 'Catty'.  But DO NOT call me late for dinner."

Sweet Cat Sketch and Mixed Media Painting

This IS Cat's "Come Pet Me I'm Irresistible" look.  It works for Cat; she knows it.
Despite all the rotten things I've said about her lately, she has a nice side. A calm side. A cuddly, loving, caring side.

I liked this pose and , at a friends suggestion, did a mixed media painting of this sketch.

Cat Sketch#14 Fever

Cat plays hard to get, but she follows us everywhere.  Her little heart's desire is to be near us all the time.

She watches the news with us each evening, and she agrees with us politically.

Cat Sketch Fever: Fat Cat Series #13

Cat has learned to sleep quietly at the foot of our bed and not disturb us.  This, sleeping in our bed, took some adjusting for all of us.

Fernando likes to pretend he doesn't like Cat, but he is the one that missed Cat when she did not choose to sleep in our room.

I usually get over my bad moods pretty quickly. Not so, Cat.

She is still sulking and it's not pretty.

Cat doesn't always handle defeat well.

Best to talk softly, coo, and keep a safe distance from Cat when she takes on this appearance.

Cat Sketch Fever: Fat Cat Series #9

Spies Fly: Cat Plots

Cat occasionally thinks of us, his beloved family members, as prey. 

As I've said before, Cat can be loving one moment, then prowls, chases and even bites and scratches us the next.  Without provocation.  It's discomfitting.

Cat Sketch Fever:  Fat Cat Series #9

Cat saw a fly.   For lack of a better description, Cat rapidly and repeatedly taps her teeth together when she spots prey. ( Nick witnessed this first and thought Cat was having a seizure.  He googled the odd behaviour, then informed us that this is what cats do when they hunt.)

Tune in tomorrow to find out how Cat handled fly.

Fat Cat trimmed down.

Cat Sketch Fever: Cat Fat Series #8

Cat and I were both feeling better soon, as the photo above suggests.
Did I say earlier that this cat loves to eat?  Fern thought I'd made cat 10 pounds lighter in this sketch.
We've tried putting her on a diet but she cries pitifully when we restrict her dish. Also, truth be told, Cat tricks us.  Fern feeds her, then after Fern goes to work, she comes to me saying she hasn't yet eaten. I buy it, feed her, then  someone else comes in and she tells them the same thing, etc. etc. So Cat probably gets 4x the correct amount of food some days.
She does look prettier thinner, doesn't she?

Fat Cat Series #6

Nick found this cat on Craig's list.  He fell in love and knew this was The Cat.  It was his birthday and this is what he wanted.  His good friend Joe called me up and asked if he could be the one to go and get the cat and buy it for Nick.
What a sweet friend.  We went together, then surprised Nick with a bunch of friends and the tiny kitten on his 17th  birthday.

Fat Cat Series # 4

Large and lazy kitty, finally on her tummy, contemplating getting up off the bed for a while. Probably to check to see if her food dish has anything in it. 
She gets exceedingly anxious if she finds it empty.

Cat wasn't always called Cat.  We always name out cats, but regardless of any given name they almost always end up, "Cat" or "Kitty".

Yet another position of very lazy, very fat and slothful kitty















A slothful kitty isn't pretty,
But pretty funny
 When you tickle her tummy.
