Everyone thinks that I am retiring so I can spend more time with the horses--not true. I spend plenty of time with them--I want to spend more time with my Cat, Thunder!

Princess, my barn cat buddy.
It was a Princess morning--my evil barn cat friend. This is the 3rd time I tried to sketch her--and the first time I a satisfied with the picture. Unlike Thunder, she doesn't have the facial markings or much contrast in her fur to rely on. Everything is more subtle--plus she has an oddly shaped head.
She was terrible the other day. I thought I heard a cat crying in the tackroom. I thought it was Tommy, the nice barn cat. I opened the door to see if he was locked in it. Princess dashed in after me. I picked her up and carried her out. I turned around to close the door and she ran back in. Well, I didn't want to lock her in, so I picked her up, again, to take her out. She turned into a wildcat! Hissing, growling and struggling to get free. I put her in the aisle and shut the door. She kept hissing and then lounged out and swiped my legs. I don't know why I like her. She made up to me a few minutes later.

Stormy
Today's installment--well I went back to cats. This is my sister's cat, Stormy, again. She liked the last one I did of him, but complained that I used a photo without his tongue showing. (Which I did on purpose.) Then she sent me some new photos with his tongue out--since that is what he normally does. He has no teeth to hold it in. When he showed up at her doorstep as a kitten, he had an autoimmune thing going on where his body was attacking his teeth. The vet recommended removing them all. There were only 9 left, at the time she had them removed--and he has been a very happy cat, ever since. He just can't seem to keep his tongue in his mouth.
