Do you see the bee flying by the flower?



I thought we needed a different kind of ginger-coloured animal today. For a change.



Otherwise, I am not a 'bug-photographer'!

Meet Anna-Lisa's kittens!



An unexpected turn of events made it possible to visit and take pictures of Anna-Lisa and her kittens.



This is what Anna-Lisa looks like as cat-mother nursing her two kittens.




And here they are! (Sorry about the soft focus.



I did not want to use a flash, so this is a paw-held shot under a sofa.)



My two-legged brother, Erik, has already decided what to call the boy-kitten: 'Nils'!



This is Moa who lives next door. She is holdning the girl-kitten that my two-legged sister, Elisabet, wants to call 'Anna Mathilda'.



Elisabet and Erik are very happy about the kittens!



I am too!

Purrs,
Sara Cat

New hope for The Red Cat Society

This is a photo of a lovely red cat-girl named Anna-Lisa. She's just a kitten here sitting in front of Elisabet, one of the two-legged's kits.

This photo was taken more than a year ago. Just a couple of weeks ago, Anna-Lisa had gave birth to two kittens that look just like her. Red kittens! I haven't seen them yet, but the two-legged kits, Elisabet and Erik, play with them a lot on the farm. If Calle Cat can't come back to us, we are hoping that maybe Anna-Lisa's kittens will join us. This means that I will have to continue to blog here until the kittens are old enough to take over. If they are interested in blogging, that is. Let's hope so!
Best wishes,
Sara Cat

Summer Reading About Red Cats



Red Cats in detective novels: Lydia Adamson's A Cat in a Glass House

Sara Cat and I thought it might be fun to try to find references or stories about red cats in books. It's summer. It's hot. Maybe you should read a good mystery while you are resting by the pool or gently swinging in a hammock. This passage, about a beautiful red cat named Millie, is to be found on page 11:
Then I saw the cat. An enormous red tabby, napping like a ragdoll on the ledge of one of the stainless-steel shelves, high up.
The only parts of the tabby moving were the tail and one twitching paw. What a wonderful place to snooze, I thought. And what a beautiful kitchen cat!
