Our lovely, loving, cantankerous, tuxedo cat Penny would have been 25 yesterday (26th April), so I wanted to wish her Happy Birthday & I hope she had a lovely party at Rainbow Bridge, lots of fish, kibble, plenty of paper balls to play with & many friends joining her celebrations including Chloe, Roman, Osiris & the latest addition to the gang Lexie.
Although 8 years have gone since she had to leave us, her coat will be just a glossy black as it was all her life, the white will be spotless and her claws will be needle sharp! She will still doing her party trick which she only developed at age 16/17 using the door to the kitchen which led to Mark's post:-
I can picture Penny right now. She's standing, precariously balanced on the very top of the Pearly Gates, grumbling at St Peter as the gatekeeper tries to coax her down, and every so often wobbling slightly just to panic him further.

So I have 3 more on the go , 2 started one yet to start , so far I have 2 pairs of stunning eyes 1 pair looking directly at me , and the other ignoring me ( I have had this painting since before Christmas so needed to get started on it as the paints start to dry out.)
Also ... I need to start looking for more projects , given the time it takes for them to arrive once ordered ( 4 weeks )
