beauty and grace...
a tabby cat lying in the shade on a path. to the left are some dramatic looking agave plants. the sky is very blue. I like the perspective of this picture but don't have the visual vocab to describe it

saw this perfect gentleman again today
a sleek, mostly black tuxedo cat with a mint green collar sitting on the sidewalk examining some flowering plants, facing away from the viewer the same cat turns toward the viewer with an inquisitive look. his eyes are yellow and he has a white patch on one side of his face.

some things never change
excerpt from Dread Journey by Dorothy B. Hughes (1949) that says "he was wearing a hat and a necktie so he couldn't have been in California long."

thank you for supporting this important venture, I am happy to report progress!
I am petting a small tabby cat in the back yard. the cat is scratching a welcome mat with its rear in the air and tail curled like a question mark, seeming pleased. my face is censored with a silly cat emoji.

a little miracle
a tabby cat, outstretched, sharpening its claws on a small plum tree in the middle of a grassy area. it is late afternoon and the outline of the cat is glowing with sunlight a closer view of the cat, who has turned to look at me

met a divine creature
A small gray and white tabby cat rolling on the ground. The photo is taken in mid-roll, with the ears comically blurred. The kitty is winking and making a funny expression. The same cat rolled on one side, back facing the viewer, stripey tail very straight. The ground is covered in red fluff from bottlebrush flowers. My shoes are in the foreground as I stand observing the cat.

something magical about seeing peonies unfurl from their tightly wound, spherical bud shape! I thought I took a before/after picture but it turns out I only had the after.

I went on a lil trip 🏖️
the nyang plushie cat standing in front of the Oceano sand dunes and beach with a happy expression. it is a beautiful day and the water is deep blue. nyang has faceplanted into the sand. he cannot climb. a lifeguard hut is in the distance. they are unaware of his plight. the dunes are deceptively vast. water bottle for scale. I almost got lost because I went back one signpost to the right of the way I came
