KIZMET CATURDAY ART

Caturday Art

 

Kizmet Caturday Art: Back of a grey cat's head turned orange and covered in bubbles for an art project.

 

Our sweet angel, Mauricio, was a sports enthusiast. He always watched volleyball with his dad. Kizmet is our current sports fan. She doesn’t discriminate and enjoys all sports. In this photo for Caturday Art, she was sitting on her dad’s lap watching with him on his iPad.

I used the Arbol de Vida effect from Painnt and an overlay from piZap to create the art.

And, of course, there’s a puzzle for those of you who enjoy them.

Sunday Selfies Reminder

Tomorrow is Super Bowl Sunday. That means your humans most likely will be busy. With that in mind, we suggest you get your selfie snapped today and ready to upload first thing Sunday morning.

After you’ve joined the hop, grab your favorite treats and settle into your favorite easy chair to watch the revamped Kitten Bowl. Last year there was no Kitten Bowl due to the Hallmark channel canceling the program. Renamed the Great American Rescue Bowl (GARB), it will air on Sunday at 10:30 a.m. ET on the Great American Family channel. Not only will it feature kittens needing homes, but puppies as well as adult dogs and cats. Check to see if your television provider offers this channel. If not, you can view it on a variety of steaming channels.

Thanks for joining us today and please do come back tomorrow. You know we love seeing your adorable faces.

    That is a wonderful “back of the head” photo done up beautifully with artful filters……my Mom has a “thing” about the back of my head – my stripes are extra cute (she says) and my fat neck is cute (she says). I think it’s a GREAT photo of you Kismet!

    Hugs, Teddy

YOU
For Fiona

It seems like only yesterday…
You were just a kitten.
When I saw your pleading look,
I was completely smitten.

Now at only six years old,
You are getting ready to leave,
Soon you will have your wings.
I’ve already started to grieve.

You’ve fought hard for the past year,
And I’m not ready to say good-bye.
I can’t imagine you not in my life
I am so sad…today I had to cry.

I am grateful and blessed
For my six years with you.
You’ll live in my heart forever.
You’re one of the best ever Kitties Blue.

YESTERDAY

Many yesterdays have passed since
You gained your angel wings. Today
Is six months since you left us behind
To remember and mourn. Our hearts
Continue to hurt, and we miss
You as much as the day you left.
Giulietta whined from the catio
Yesterday as I worked in the yard.
I know you put her up to it. That
Was your way of getting me to,
Allow you to join me as I
Gardened. You were there with me
In spirit. With every meow
I thought of you and how much I miss
Your sweet face and disposition.
In these past few months, many friends
Have traveled your same path in your
paw-steps. I am certain you were
Waiting to greet them with purrs and hugs.
I pray you and your friends are laughing,
Frolicking and having fun together.
Picturing that makes me smile, but
Does not lessen my sadness at your
No longer being here to snuggle
And receive our love, care and kisses.
Fiona, please do not ever forget
You are still and always will be loved.

ONE YEAR MISSING YOU

One year has passed since you flew away,
And I still think of you everyday.
I see your sweet face in my mind’s eye
And wish we’d never had to say good-bye.
It’s nice you’ve sent us kitties needing a family,
But my dearest love, we are now at capacity.
You thought it would take more than one cat
To take your place in our habitat.
We love Cooper Murphy and baby Sawyer dearly
But thinking either could replace you makes me teary.
You were one-of-a-kind and will stay in my heart
Until the day I join you and we’re no longer apart.
When once again I can hold you in my arms
And revel in all your love and feline charms.
Together with you and all who have passed.
I will spend eternity contemplating how blessed
I was to share my life with my furry children,
Each and every one of you one-in-a billion.

UNTIL

I miss you each day.
Until we meet in heaven,
The pain will remain.

© Giulietta Blue 11/01/17

ONE OF A KIND

I don’t know how to say good-bye.
I thought you were invincible; though,
You used up many of your nine lives.
You ruled us all with an iron paw;
Never took “no” for an answer
And always got your way.
If not, you’d bark to signal your
Displeasure and sometimes raise a paw.
I always joked that you were bi-polar.
When I told people you were a calico
They immediately understood what I meant.
Today was unnaturally quiet in the house.
Can a home seem empty with eight cats?
I will miss waking up at night to find you
Sitting next to me and staring at me.
I will miss you yelling at us as you did
When you wanted breakfast and dinner.
I will miss watching you lounging and snoozing
On the porch settee on a warm afternoon.
But most of all I will miss your kisses!
When kitten Sawyer befriended you,
We suspect you were imparting your
Wisdom and secrets for controlling us.
Time will tell if he was a good listener.
But whatever he may have learned,
Neither Sawyer nor any other cat
Can or will replace you in our hearts.
Lily Olivia, you were one-of-a-kind.
