You've all met my siamese cat, Sputnik, before and have heard how she likes to sit on her perch to sun herself. Here is another photograph of her that I took this week. The shadows are created by the patio door's frame.

Oh sweet sweet Sputnik. This shot works so beautifully in black & white. I think I'd quite enjoy being your cat! Sitting on my perch basking in the sun would suit me just fine thanks :)

Hello

I wandered in from another site and then realized when I saw your etsy images, that I'd marked them as a favourite some time ago! I love your work (and of course what's not to love about cats!) Just thought I'd stop by and say hello. Very vibrant and inspiring site you have here.

Blue-eyed Siamese Cat flies to Japan

Today was filled with my art and time with Sputnik. She was bathing herself which gave me the chance to catch a photo of her.
