Group for Cat-Lovers

That's me, "MomKat"...Blame it on Val (and his ridiculous hat!)

OH, I see. Momkat! I'm starting to put together these pieces of the crazy iuoma puzzle!! And yes, Katerina, we really must make Val change that bloody hat!!!!

Have you lot got nothing better to do than to criticise my new hat?

I give up.

No I don't.

But I've changed my hat.

All I need is to find someone to take a photo of my new Gavroche Marseillaise hat, and then you and your cats will all be rockin' in the aisles.

And as to the origins of the Group, yes i started it, yes I made a right mess of sorting things out, and yes Katerina and Angie & Snooky have subsequently done wonders to make it all a lot better.

If you don't like the tag line/intro, you can always start a campaign to get Angie & Snooky to change it.

Bestest and Miaou, Santa Val

Oh, so it's a new tagline? I didn't think it was there when I joined! Thanks for all the history of the group Angie and Momkat! That story is so funny, that I think we need to start a campaign to get the group name changed back to Katerina Nikoltsou!! Very funny. And look, Momkat, Val's back, our work here is done. ;)

Nooooooooooooo, no need to get "Katerina Nikoltsou" as a group name...she's really not that groupie! We cat lovers are just fine with this title ;-) And Angie might have a SnookyDog here, but he's a real cat lover , too. 

'Got your cat-mail, Angie, which-is-really-not-the-New-Year-mail-but-the 365-mail. You go, girl, this is a beauty and #7! Great start! And I put the cat up-a-tree! (a Christmas tree ;-)

Merry Christmas, Happy holidays to all the cats and critters!

COMICAL RELIEF SELF PORTRAIT WITH KITTEN BUZZ

'Love Buzz! Happy New Year 2012 to you, Guido, and all you cat lovers! xxx

Cats and kits from Angie and SnookyDog!

xxxThank you so much!

Thank you Angie and SnookyDog, I am glad the green-eyed cat on green arrived in "sunny" Wisconsin ;-) Here is a CAT on mail art from Art Tower...must be a relative to Zombie Kitty Kawai? Fun!

Some fine New Year's cats are coming in while mine haven't gone out yet.

This guy I call Irish Cat.  He is rolly polly and lives in the Irish store in Troy NY usa.

The sheep, the cat, and the Cat:

Ha ha, good to see an exercise machine put to good use Dak! They are also good for hanging up wet towels.

My cat from MadMadge arrived in Greece today...'love the details. Thanks MM

(Great Cat Stamp, too!)

Valentine Mark Herman is not in the Cat New Year mailing, BUT, he can't resist cat-stuff either! His new series of lino prints that arrived today in Greece has a cat! Oh, yes!

Pinka in her basket in my studio, where we are both happiest!

What a wonderful picture!

Thanks Fleur!

She's also much cleaner than I am, I always have ink all over my hands!

Dear Cat-Lovers!

Please come to my 6th birthday party tomorrow. There'll be chocolate cake!

Love, Pinka.

Happy Birthday Pinka! 

   Ben Benini and I will be delighted to attend and we both love cake.   Pinka, your colors are beautiful.  

  Cheers,  Ben and Elizabeth

Chocolate cake! Josefina and I will be there ...... cheers!

Thanks! I'll start pouring the pink-a champagne!!

Fleur, did I get the puzzle right? (in photos) Love your ABC Josefina!!

Any way that you want to arrange the puzzle pieces is the right way, visma. Your solution looks great ... cheers!

Thanks from Pinka for all the good wishes! This is me wearing PINK earrings made by Lisa Fraker, and an altered card which has Pinka in the carriage after she pushed out the princess!!!

Please ask Pinka to tell us when it's Vizma's birthday, so that we can get the Mail Art -- and ear rings -- organised. Bianca and Trouble

Happy Birthday greetings to Pinka from Greece (a day late?)

But Zombie Kitty Kawai, and FatKat, and MomKat (me) send warm greetings! xxx

More cats and kits in today's mail art, too.

These stamps came from KDJ in Florida,

inside a package that also had these Top Cats! 

Great cat-cards!

Thank you, KDJ xxx ( and she asks if I like cats ;-)

Three more cat-cards! 'Love 'em!Thank you, KDJ!

Thanks Momkat and Zombies!! And Bianca and Trouble!!

My birthday is on the 24th March and I can't wait to see if I share a birthday with other mail artists!!! I actually share my birthday with my sister, 9 yrs apart, not twins. But I think Katerina and my sister might be twins!!!!!!

The harmony of Buzz and Tarantino, part 2

  Thank you for this reminder of contented home. Just looking I can feel their warmth and their purring.  What a good way to start my day.

Zombie Kitty and Phat Kat were outside with my stray cats "MomKat" and "Whitey" today:

p.s. Yes, Vizma! I think your sister is my "lost" twin?

(but my birthday is Feb. 7th)

The "Kats" here are helping me sort the mail art...Zombie Kitty like Val's "Darlington" and Dean's "Bar Codes", and art from Lesley in South Africa!

Those are such sweet pictures, Janine!

Nice warm dog mattress!!

The kittens are adorable, Janine! My stray cats and kits were in hiding in our cold unusual freezing weather. Yesterday a "new" KitKat join the group of my strays. Can't say where she came from, as she is not a "cow" cat like MomKat.

A couple of scribbles from my old sketch books:

Here's Botas in his nest. He loves the cold terracota pot.

Also received Cat New Year from Elizabeth Zois! Now I have 5 KitKats for 2012! Thank you all! 'Love the little stamp that Tha Dak did:

Oh yes, Debbie, Little Bug gets away because Kitty is busy looking looking out at us.  Thanks, Katerina, for showing the stamp,  cheers,

Botas has grown!!

Dak, what does it mean on your stamp Pondidia Xoleus?

Xoieus is my fooling with words, the sound. Sounds the same,or almost, as "joyous."  Like xois and zois or vixma or brunx, oh no, that's going too far.

Oh, no wonder Google rejected my question!!! It's a Droll-ixm!!

No, that's not going too far...I like it!!

Vixma!!

This is my love Gino aka 'Pitu'

Always drinks my water or coffee :)

These pictures made me yawn! Angie, I thought that was a bat!!! Cat, bat...whatever. ;-)

No no.. bats are nice too! I didn't mean to offend her!! Gorgeous stamp by the way, did you carve it? Eraser? Sorry Daisy. :-)))

That's not Pitu, La Koki: that's my Trouble. Val

I looked at those photos and yawned again..it's contagious! Must stop looking at yawning cats and dogs!

Aaaaahhhhaaaaa! So true Angie!
