Hey y'all. Christmas is less than a week away. Do you have your shopping done? More importantly, do you have your sewing project-gifts done? Yeah, me either.
I've been working on Christmas gifts and some finishes for CiL, but nothing I can show you right now. Instead, here are some cute photos of my boyfriend's new cat.
He's a two-year-old blue tabby from the animal shelter and we named him Moo.
Moo is the sweetest boy! He loves to be with his people, be carried, sleep on the bed, and nap on the desk while boyfriend is working. He wrestles without ever using his claws or teeth and plays with his toys like a wild man.
From shelter cat to spoiled house-cat in just a month and I don't know who is happier about it, him or us :) Adopt, don't shop!
Covered in Love has been so blessed by donations from quilters, I want you all to see what each other have going on! For purposes of the linky, I'm going to define "charity" really generally. If you're sewing a quilt for you co-worker's mom with cancer or your friend's uncle who lost his home, that totally counts! Anything you're sewing out of the goodness of your heart for someone outside you immediate circle of family and friends.
Some Quilt Charities:

Moo is adorable!!!! All my cats have been strays or from the shelter and all have been the best cats!!!! Stray cats have a way of attaching themselves to my hubby!
ReplyDeleteMy two feline buddies was a stray and from the Bengal cat rescue. I feed the stray cats and have rescued and found homes for four so far. So glad Moo found a loving home.
ReplyDeleteMooooo! What a wonderful addition to your little family :) Shelter cats the best, hands down.
ReplyDeleteMoo is so pretty (handsome)! He looks like he's fitting right in. You've gotta love a cat that loves quilts & seems like he's come to the right house for that. The cat we have right now was a stray, born on our property. His other two siblings left but he stayed on & is a regular "farm" cat. He stays outside & never comes in the fenced yard (we also have 2 dogs). He patrols the 1 1/2 acres along with our chickens and a sheep. Merry Christmas to Moo!
