Thundering Thursday!

Tom: No, NO! Today's post isn't about more meteorological phenomena! It's actually quite a nice day today! What I'm referring to is my thundering paws yesterday afternoon. You see, after the fog lifted, a little bit of sun came through and #1 took me out for a game of Frisbee. Now it's a challenge for her to both throw the Frisbee and take a photo of me in action, but she did well yesterday. Behold!





Believe me, those were moments of pure magic!

Tama-Chan: I wasn't going to leave you for two days in a row without a picture of me! So here is one from this morning:



And finally, we were delighted to see the great response to the offer made by our friend, Ms.C, over at T'Abby Normal, to do some pet portraits. In her post, she featured a watercolour she had done of our great IKKYU, and we thought we would show it to you "in situ" on the wall of our living room:



Isn't it just beautiful?

    I've been thinking today and have lots of kitten photos to share with you too. They aren't Isis kittens, but 6 of them are my nieces and nephews all the same! :)

    We love the portrait!
    Tom, you are a pro with the frisby!
    Tama-Chan, that is one mighty feather toy laying close to you. It is a feather toy, is it?
    Purrs!

    That's a beautiful portrait! Ikkyu was very handsome. I loved those shots of you soaring over the field, Tom. You're such an extreme athlete. As for Tama-Chan, you look precious and lovely as always.

    Great action shots Tom! I wonder how high you got catching that frisbee? And I bet it was lots of fun too.

    Tama-Chan looks lovely as always, no need for her to leap about.

    Your friend,
    Niamh

    Your mum played frisbee, and took that photo at the same time?! That is very good! Our mum struggles when she is sitting still! Hahaha! We're glad you had fun, Tom.

    That is a beautiful portrait of Ikkuyu. Tabby Normal's mum is very talented.
