Spring Birthdays

It's Spring, but we have snow falling outside here in New Mexico! I've been thinking about my little sister who lives in Oregon. It's her birthday tomorrow, which got me thinking about Spring birthdays and so the new birthday card idea! Here is a rabbit (think Easter and Spring :) with cupcake and birthday wishes for all of you who have birthdays in the months of March, April, and May. Hoppy Birthday!

Pet Loss

Losing a pet is one of the harder things we face in life. They are friends and family. They loved us unconditionally, gave us a chance to play like kids every day, looked forward to exercise even when we didn't, and greeted us with eagerness and joy when we came home. How can we not miss the love they offered us every day of their lives?

We can celebrate their life. A memorial is one way to pay tribute to a furry friend. Celebrating the life we've shared with a beloved animal reminds us of what we were gifted with and helps to ease the pain of losing that animal. The gift remains in memory forever.

Thanks to zazzletops for featuring my cat full o' blarney! The inspiration for this cat and "Peace Cat" is Amma, my big beautiful 7 yr old Ragdoll cat.

For the Pirate in Every Cat

I live with five cats, all rescued. At least two of them would be pirates if given half a chance! This design is from Rotem Gear by R. Jean Roth. She has a great sense of humor and a wonderful shop online.
