Tama-Chan's Toesday


Tama-Chan: Now that I don't have a bunch of kits after me all of the time, I can devote much more of my attention to looking utterly beautiful. Needless to say, with the warmer weather approaching, it is most important to have absolutely beautiful toes!



The weather has been fairly stinky overall, but we did have some sunshine yesterday so I got to go out in the run for a while:


Otherwise, I like to sit by the window in #1's study, and admire the birds. At the moment, we have lots and lots of European goldfinches at the feeder



When I need to do some acrobatics, I love to leap up on to the beam that hangs over our entrance hall:


And guess what? Today, we got an email from my little daughter, Hime-Chan, with a photo. She's beginning to look quite grown-up, isn't she?


Finally for today, we would like to invite our friends who are not familiar with doggy blogs to go and check out our friend MAXDOG's blog and read about the amazing portrait of him by Kathleen Coy that was commissioned by his blogging pals all over the world. It is a wonderful story.

    The painting turned out wonderful. Such a big smile on Maxdog's face.
    Hime looks great, Tama - just like the mommy.

    Beautiful pictures. Thank you for sharing. I didn't know about Maxdog, being new out here. I followed your links and have learned about him and the painting. What a story. How wonderful that so many cared enough to do a thing like that. I hope he beats all the odds and that the Rainbow Bridge has to wait a long time before he gets there.

    Tama Chan, we love that you are giving yourself a pedicure. You must be enjoying your free time now that the kits are grown and (mostly) gone to new homes. We are going to visit MaxDog now. xoxo

    Thanks for telling us about Max's picture - we have been over to see it and think it is beautiful. We see that you are taking over the computer Tama-Chan to keep in contact with your daughter - have you been getting lessons from #1.

    We really like the high beam that you kitties can hang out on. We don't have anything that high at our place.

    You look lovely as always, Tama-chan, and we're so impressed with how nicely Hime-chan is growing up. Of course, with you as her momma, how could she be anything but beautiful?

    Himi looks great! And Kathleen's portrait of Max is spectacular!

    I love how in one of the photos it looks as if the key is hanging from your tail. You must be happy to hear about your daughter.
