December Day Twelve

We've always shared our home with furry creatures but over the last few years we have said goodbye to all of them.
Most recently Nigel —
There was Timmy  —
Seen here with Nigel —
Katems (aka Katie-Cat) —
Jingle (16 in this photo)  —
And the most precious Oscar-Riley —
YD used to knit him the most fabulous jerseys.
They all lived side-by-side with interesting relationships. Nigel was definitely the boss of Oscar. Katems and Jingle both spent time living down at the barn to get a bit of piece and quiet.
And they all lived long and happy lives.
However it has been quiet around here over the last few months and the girls and I decided the biggest cat lover of them all (the MOML) needed a special treat for Christmas. 
Meet Tammy, who joined our family today —
She spent time in The Palace this afternoon, and seemed particularly interested in the right things!

'til next time,
happy stitches,
Raewyn

  3. Tammy looks just like our Sammy who wandered into our barn and lives a little over three years ago and filled out our little family perfectly.. Congratulations, I think you chose the best Christmas gift of all!
