Hi there doodlers!

I apologize for my lateness this week, I just got a brand new kitty and she is hogging all of my attention!  I hardly painted in the days since she's come - she's adorable.



I'll tell you about her - Abby is a rescue kitty, she was living with an elderly woman who could no longer take care of her.  Instead of giving her to a shelter, I stepped in and took her myself - giving my current cat, Ruka (also a rescue), a new companion, and also hogging all my free time!  I am currently managing and coaching both cats to get used to eachother.

sidebar aside, I am so proud of the continuing work you have all been doing!
