Just gorgeous, I think. <br /><br />And the cat was beautiful, too - I should have photographed her - sleek and all black with dazzling green eyes. <br /><br />Riot Kitty -<br /><br />Pretty smart of her. :)Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13984802196897920610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753548867758581514.post-10176732586100064662010-04-15T20:03:37.996-04:002010-04-15T20:03:37.996-04:00I thought that painting was a photo at first - I&#...I thought that painting was a photo at first - I'd love to have that kind of talent.<br /><br />My kind of cat, too. :)Riot Kittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02725825736285347870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753548867758581514.post-18532983712030348252010-04-15T19:36:42.630-04:002010-04-15T19:36:42.630-04:00I know cats are independent but wow...this one tak...I know cats are independent but wow...this one takes the cake!

Maybe he will spotlight the marble gazebos one day.<br /><br />Meredith -<br /><br />Madison is such a magical place - I love it there. And of course we find magic everywhere when we look for it. <br /><br />That painting looks like a photo, doesn't it? The artist did a wonderful job.<br /><br />How nice that the your parents' kitty spreads love to the neighbors.

Amazing what magic artists may conjure to transport us from everyday reality. And of course it is wonderful to realize that our landscapes are full of magic already -- so glad the Madison residents haven't forgotten.<br /><br />The tale of the shop cat is too sweet. My parents' cat (they used to have four and a dog, but over the years are down to this one tough survivor) now visits the neighbors across the street for several hours a day while my parents are at work, so the retired couple there may fuss and pet him -- and feed him lots of extras. ;)Meredithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11454557080455458675noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753548867758581514.post-14969384090885999722010-04-15T14:02:19.121-04:002010-04-15T14:02:19.121-04:00I thought the pic was of a real thing until I read...I thought the pic was of a real thing until I read the caption.

My childhood home used to be a magnet for stray dogs and it was packed in the middle of a bunch of other homes. The shop owner was a nice single lady - about 60. I imagine the little black cat spotted her and thought - you'll do fine.<br /><br />That is a great story about your grandkitty! How nice that she likes to give comfort and she probably likes the fuss, too. There is a book out right now about a cat in a nursing home who gravitates toward those who are dying.<br /><br />Mama Zen -<br /><br />I can't believe that painting you posted is in a church. Big double take this morning.<br /><br />Brian -<br /><br />Stepping into a painting - seems kind of like a Twilight Zone episode. :)<br /><br />Granny Annie -<br /><br />So you can now show him my blog and say that is the very gazebo he should build. Sounds like you got more of a shed, but that could be useful during cookouts. :)<br /><br />Jannie -<br /><br />I don't know the cat whisperer, but I do like the notion of cats being emotionally advanced. I believe that is true!Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13984802196897920610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753548867758581514.post-18622943353935507942010-04-15T11:14:01.323-04:002010-04-15T11:14:01.323-04:00This place of YOURS is magical -- and so are YOU!!...This place of YOURS is magical -- and so are YOU!!<br /><br />Hard to believe that's a PAINTING.

She has found the perfect place to live (and she apparently has great taste in furniture perching, too!) One of my son's cats has semi-abandoned home. My son is on a military base and the cat has decided to spend her days at the offices next door where soldiers and families dealing with death and disabilities go. She apparently gives a lot of comfort to both staff and visitors. At the end of the day she returns home. We all think she's addicted to the fuss everyone makes over her. :)TALONhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03205633556998220372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753548867758581514.post-35690998012823582702010-04-15T07:58:05.170-04:002010-04-15T07:58:05.170-04:00Fireblossom -

The shop owner told me that story - I didn't realize that the people were former owners of the cat first - and I said I didn't think the cat looked too broken up by them leaving. :) The cat has a great gig there at that pricey antique shop and the owner says people come in just to see her.Lynnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13984802196897920610noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5753548867758581514.post-31897458795731677082010-04-15T06:35:06.383-04:002010-04-15T06:35:06.383-04:00That's a cat after my own heart.That's a cat after my own heart.Fireblossomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07040525704916368792noreply@blogger.com
