It's Behind Me Halloween Card

Woo Hoo!  Today is the first day of the Cat Lover's Hop!  I've been looking forward to it since......well since the last one ended last year!  (Wink!)  I have to tell you what has happened since the last one at my house.  This summer we ended up adding not one BUT FOUR kittens to our "fur family."  First, we found a small Siamese kitten in our yard in June.  We "think" he fell off of a vehicle.  Then two weeks later, a stray mama cat got in our garage and had five kittens.  When it came time, we found good indoor homes for two of the kittens.  The other three came in our house.  If someone had told me years ago I would have this many cats in the house, I would have told them they were bonkers.  ;)  But sometimes I think things happen for a reason and with this staying at home (because of the covid-19 virus), these kittens came along at the perfect time.  They have brought much joy, laughter and fun to the house for all of us.  Be sure to join in on all the fun at the Cat Lovers Hop plus check out all the cat themed cards.  Thanks for stopping by....and always look behind you!  ;)

  2. Oh my gosh, I just love this fun card design. That cat image is the best frazzled kitty, and how creative to pair him with two giant googly eyes! As for your cat story, isn't that how it always goes? We had a similar thing happen, but with rabbits. We started off with one rabbit and then seemed like all the stray rabbits found their way into our backyard over the next several years.

    Cats also joined our family, but not at the rate the rabbits did! We had all the rabbits neutered, so these were all strays and rescues.
