Caricature at the Cat Show

Meows from Mudpie!

Over the weekend, in between hospital visits, Mommy treated herself to something fun - a visit to our area's annual Cat Fanciers' Association cat show.

She loved seeing all the beautiful show cats but said not one of them could hold a candle to me! 

The highlight of the show for her was a caricature artist doing on-the-spot sketches of attendees' cats. The artist, Joe Ferris, only needed about 15 minutes to work his magic. Mommy had to wait quite awhile for her turn, but it was well worth the wait.

Didn't my drawing turn out pawsome??? Mommy just adores it.


Conveniently, the hotel that hosted the cat show is practically next door to the hospital, so Mommy was able to visit grandpa right after leaving the show. To gauge his reaction she told him she had just adopted 3 more cats at the show. Hey, if he never wants to be home with us, why can't she have as many cats as she wants?!?!?! 

Actually...grandpa wouldn't really mind if Mommy adopted another cat or two. I, on the other hand...

Mudpie, what a fun outing for your mommy. And look at that beautiful sketch that was done of you. Magnificent. I bet your grandpa might have felt good enough to laugh when your mommy said she was going to get three more cats. That would be a very good thing if he's feeling better.

I would have to put my paw down like a thunderclap if mom told me she was adopting mr a sister.

I LOVE that drawing. I might make Mom try her paw at such.
