The Dog House

Greetings hairless apes. Sparta Puss here. It’s been a long time. My trained monkeys have been keeping me away from the pooter box but I managed to distract them for a while. It’s Spring and every year I bring them some rats to play with. Such fun. The she-ape jumps on chairs and squeals andContinue reading “The Dog House”

Bye Bye Birdy

Richard the Bird, our little visitor, returned home to his humans today. They’re back from their travels and picked him up this evening so I had a final few scribbles. He’s been with us for a month and we’re missing the little tyke already. He’d gotten used to us and treated Husb like some sortContinue reading “Bye Bye Birdy”

Fatty Bum Bum

Sparta Puss has put on a shedload of weight over the Winter! She resists all attempts to put her on a diet so I’m naming and shaming her! I can’t cut down her rations too much because we’re looking after a Senegal parrot for a few weeks while his humans are on holidays and wheneverContinue reading “Fatty Bum Bum”

Thanks For That

One of those days, I haven’t stopped and now it’s really late and I haven’t done a drawing to blog. So it’s going to be sketches of the cat again. Except she stopped cooperating and went off in a strop, so then poor Husb had to stand in for the cat and just as IContinue reading “Thanks For That”

Another Night, Another Cat

Another quick scribble at the end of the day: another cat. It’s just so easy when I’m slumped on a chair, panicking because I haven’t done a drawing for my blog yet. She’s slumped on the chair too. I get annoyed with myself because I haven’t produced a great masterpiece, or misstresspiece, but the importantContinue reading “Another Night, Another Cat”

The Cook In

Such a busy day, I only had time for a few quick kitty scribbles this evening as Sparta Puss dozed at my feet. After shopping this morning at the excellent Uplands Market, Husb and I did a massive cook-in, making split pea and ham soup, tomato and vegetable soup, spelt and seeded bread, Seville orangeContinue reading “The Cook In”
