Just recovering a little

Miette currently looks like this, because he is recovering from his big day at the vet right now (he had the "fixing" surgery today) and a few other little, healthy, but never-the-less scary things done to him. So he's healthy, all stitched up, worn out and crashing on the record player.

I'm recovering from the Monday + Tuesday sale's orders (and will still be under the mail room pile for the next few days, though I can see the light now!).  A batch will go out tomorrow (as it did today, and yesterday) and then there will be one more big one for the weekend's duties.

I'm sorry it's so boring here right now...but I promise this won't turn into www.cutepicturesofmycat.com. Just bear with the cute cat pictures while I play catch up.

emily...what is the name of the beautiful green paint you have on your walls? you've probably had this request a thousand times but it would be much appreciated. I'm growing weary of my boring beige walls...not conducive to the making of the art!!!
thanks!

Come on sweety, I know what is it to have a pet recovering from a big surgery. My little adorable dog had a bad tumour about 6 month ago, she was all shaved, it was a so sad week for us. So I feel your pain with your little Miette, no need to apologize for posting about the kitty! Wish you better days soon! full of light too ;)

that has got to be the most adorable cat picture I've ever seen!! I just love that he's lounging atop that old-fashioned radio. ;)

good luck with finishing packaging your orders!! :)

I wouldn't mind if miette were in every blog!

Julie · September 20, 2007 at 10:46 PM

Awwwww. I like Miette pictures.

Janet · September 20, 2007 at 11:20 PM

Hey, that's a great domain name! Hope Miette is ok! I hate when cats are sick or unwell. Or even just lonely.

I second the request for paint color in your lovely living room. I've tried looking all in your blog for it and can't find it. Please, please, please tell. It's so perfect a color.

Lori · September 21, 2007 at 12:23 AM

I'm enjoying your cute cat!

Laura · September 21, 2007 at 12:31 AM

I wonder what Miette's personality is like. I like his color and the shape of his eyes...he seems like a gentleman.

what a darling!

Poor petite miette!

What a cool record player! And your cat is sweet. I'm posting photos of bunnies on my blog since I'm busy in the studio working on new work and not yet ready to share. :)

Aw... sweet Miette. He can't help but look all handsome, even when he's under the weather. Congrats on the successful sale! I could just see the virtual shoppers lined up around the block; some camped out with their sleeping bags from the night before. :)

(And in case Emily is stuck mailing in perpetuity, re: the paint, I'm fairly certain I've read her say the room was already that color when she moved in. Dreamy.)

lol...cutepicturesofmycat.com hilarious....

though I will only start to "really" worry when you start adding not so funny text that is poorly spelled on top of the images, like the damn lol cats.

seriously if you post a picture of Miette looking at herself in the mirror with the Taxi Driver "you talking to me" speech added in in a funny font, well then you're in trouble.

great photo!

awww poor baby!

Hilary Glime · September 21, 2007 at 10:07 AM

I like cute cat pictures. :)

Erika · September 21, 2007 at 10:29 AM

I don't mind! Poor Miette. But he's so darn cute on that record player. I know how he feels - well, sort of - I just got a major adjustment yesterday and I've been doing the same thing. Record player and all ;)

sarah · September 21, 2007 at 11:21 AM

why is it that cats always seem to look comfortable?

tiffany · September 21, 2007 at 11:33 AM

I don't mind the cute pictures of your cat! Look at the foot dangling! So cute!

ambika · September 21, 2007 at 12:51 PM

You darling dear heart ;)

I was envisioning you in a sea of parcels... And just one little arm peeking out waving a black applet flag.... :) xxo

aww! poor Miette

britt-sparkled vintage charm · September 21, 2007 at 02:01 PM

Woah! He's grown so big! There's more of 'em to love :)

Jeannie · September 21, 2007 at 02:52 PM

I don't care what anyone says....I'm all for cute pictures of cats anytime. Your Miette reminds me of my dear Moz who I lost this summer. So please..Miette can show up anytime.

Amy M · September 21, 2007 at 06:33 PM

Adorable!

Kim · September 21, 2007 at 06:55 PM

I always thought Miette was a girl! WHOOPS!
What a sweet kitty. I hope HE recovers quickly.

Tascha · September 21, 2007 at 08:05 PM

I just love your art and your shop.

I will visit here often, certainly!

Vê · September 21, 2007 at 09:00 PM

never feel bad about posting cat pics - when you are a cat as cute as Miette you deserve to be shown off!

"Boring" is okay, though I wouldn't consider this boring. It's nice to have a chance to just breathe sometimes.
XOXO

OOOOHHHHHH I do hope he cheers up soon!

My kitty looked awefully similar after her trip to the vet....!

Rachel Reeves · September 23, 2007 at 10:06 PM

I hope your kitty is doing much better now.

Carol · September 23, 2007 at 10:25 PM

*eep!* A jewelry box??? I'm intrigued!

Marilyn · September 24, 2007 at 09:48 PM

Cute, cute cat pics are always a winner with me.

gracia · September 25, 2007 at 02:55 AM

That is the perfect picture of a cat recovering from "snipping". He looks relaxed and a bit pensive, wondering what they did while he was sleeping that makes him feel... different. :) I had a cat that walked funny for weeks and kept shaking his back legs like something was missing.
