Some Progress......

The 17th of this month has been two months since we brought in our rescue kitty ~ Patchy. She adapted quite well to our home....almost too well, lol. We took her to the vet to get her nails trimmed and found out that she has an ear infection! I was so mad because the vet we took her to when we brought her in cleaned her ears and said nothing about an infection. So my guess is she had the infection for the two months we had her and possibly even before that.....poor baby!! My other vet gave me some ear wash and ointment for her infection. No wonder she is crabby.





She is such a sweetie but still has some issues with our baby boy Boo Boos. Maybe it is because she is not feeling good with her ear infection. Boo is still scared of her and will hide most of the time when she is out. They are getting better but she loves to chase him when she sees him. She obviously thinks she is the boss and may very well be the boss. Hopefully things will get better and they will be friends with each other. Here is a pic of my baby boy Boo, who hates his picture taken.

NEW Early Style Rabbit Doll Pattern


It has been a rough week. I have been fighting a sinus infection and have been so drained but managed to finish the pattern for my early style rabbit doll. The pattern is located on the left side bar;)




I have also listed the last of the angel ornie tucks and relisted a couple other things on Ebay.

I wanted to let you know that I have left Lemon Poppy Seeds website. With working, family, furbabies and trying to list weekly on Ebay and keep up with my blog, I just do not have the time to make items for a website too. I enjoyed being on there but just had to let it go.

I am working on a couple new items and hope to have them ready this weekend. Take care and have a great evening. I will be back in a day or two;)

Alley Cat Rescue.....Please help!!

Jenny from "Wonders of Whimsy" has started a blog called "Alley-Cat Rescue" She is doing such a wonderful thing and needs our help!



Jenny's blog was created to set up a non-profit organization to help the feral cat population in her area. She is hoping to raise money by selling art and taking donations to purchase cages, pay for medical expenses and food. Her goal is to catch, fix and release the cats back to the same spot.



Jenny is offering hand made items up for a raffle on her blog "Alley-Cat Rescue". It will cost $1 per chance to win one of her creations. You can donate $1 or more to help these furbabies in need.

A little bit about feral cats.....

Feral cats are the 'wild' offspring of domestic cats and are primarily the result of pet owners' abandonment or failure to spay and neuter their animals, allowing them to breed uncontrolled. Feral cat 'colonies' can be found behind shopping areas or businesses, in alleys, parks, abandoned buildings, and rural areas. They are elusive and do not trust humans.

Many people assume their animals will survive when they move away and leave them behind. Contrary to popular belief, domestic animals do not automatically return to their "natural" instincts and cannot fend for themselves! Already, U.S. animal shelters are forced to kill an estimated 15 million homeless cats and dogs annually. The alternative to humane euthanasia for almost every stray is a violent end or slow, painful death. Many "throwaways" die mercilessly outdoors from starvation, disease, abuse --- or as food to a predator.

Please help!

Is anyone else ready for Spring????

I don't know about anyone else but I am so ready for Spring. We have had ice storms, thunder snow, blizzards, plain old snow storms and sub zero temps. I guess if I did not have to travel every day in it to work, I would not mind it so much. I took this picture during the week. I love the simple look of it and wanted to share.
