More cats

Now that I have managed to add the Imagekind button (thanks to the very kind help of Katherine Tyrrell of Making a Mark), you can see some more cat pictures.

Or you can just see them here.

Cat Photos

Let me introduce the models for my sketches.



Tom in characteristic pose, i.e. about to fall off something.



Biscuit in playful mood.

Both these kittys were adopted. Biscuit came first from the Blue Cross with his brother Felix, a handsome black and white tuxedo cat. Sadly Felix was hit by a car two months later. He joined the various guinea pigs and hamsters buried in the garden. (If we ever sell this house the new owners will be in for a few surprises if they dig up the flower beds). We thought Biscuit was lonely so when we heard of another male cat of similar age was needing rehoming (next stop RSPCA) we took Tom on trial and he made friends with Biscuit straight away.

Cat Sketches

Pen and wash in Winsor and Newton sketchbook

These are a few pages from my sketchbook, introducing Tom, (the black scruffy one), and Biscuit, the cute ginger and white one. No, I am not responsible for their names, they were both adopted.

As you can see, they like to sleep a lot.
