Delicate Siamese Shadows

sputnik on the window sill


I sneaked my camera in behind the curtain to get a photo of Sputnik on the window sill.   She was curious what foreign object was entering her space and moved up to check it out.

The delicate pattern from the window screen streams across her feline nose and below her cat eyes.

Hope you're having a good weekend.

The screen is not noticed by the kitty - unless she leaps toward the imaginary target of her attention. The tiny screen squares are so artistic, enhancing a beautiful cat...

What a wonderful catch...love the checkerboard nose. You sure don't see many Siamese cats these days, at least in my neck of the woods! He's a beauty, love the yawn shot!

Oh sweet Sputnik! You've done an amzing job at capturing those delicate criss-crossy shadows across kitty's adorable little face!

Re your comment on my blog: no I've not tried Kani Miso (actually I haven't heard of it!) but I'm not sure I'd like crab guts and brains. As interesting as it sounds :D

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. I actually adopted Sputnik as a kitten in 1998 when I was living in Mexico. She made the long trip with me to Japan on July 25, 2004. It took me about 6 months to plan the logistics of bringing her from Mexico to Japan. Since I had to fly via the U.S. on Mexicana Airlines and Korean Airlines, that meant 4 countries and two airlines would need to approve her transport. There were many details to keep track of for each country and airline. After 6 months of stressful planning, 16 hours of two airline flights and layovers, She made it to Japan safely! Korean Air allowed her to fly with me as my carry-on luggage, which was a relief for me. No worrying about whether she was scared or left at the Los Angeles airport! I didn't give her any tranquilizer to sedate her. Yet, she was quiet the entire flight and went unnoticed by other passengers. I h
