Mom had a Cats-astrophic Event!

Yep! Right here!

Way out here in the middle of nowhere!

Yes our Peep is a total geek. Way-back, about 3years ago, before she started doing the badges for the Cats Blogosphere, and AI took over the interwebs, our Peep was experimenting doing Computer Art, using software tools, like Photoshop.

She got really good at it and was contemplating starting to do pet pawtraits THEN AI APPEARED! AI was doing in 5 minutes what used to take Mom a couple of days to create and anybody could do it! And then Mom got approached to do some grant writing for the local senior centre and she quit doing the art.

Mom got a new Windows 11 computer and installed all her old software on it and the old Windows 10 machine became her back up. Mom's old copy of Photoshop 5.5 did not run as well in Windows 11 and a bunch of functions quit working, but Mom did not need them anymore. Mom started doing the badges and she used Photoshop to make the badges. Fast forward to the beginning of summer...Photoshop died on her regular laptop.

Mom KNEW she was going to have to change (eventually) and has a new software, but she can do things FAST in Photoshop. Her brain muscle does not even have to think about where the functions are! T=he new software... has things in different places and it takes time to find them!

That has meant that the old laptop is now out and being used (so that you can get your badges!)

Mom's old laptop is great! ALL the Photoshop functions are there but the laptop had been upgraded to 11 and it is running way too slow. The Hard Disk is FULL of a zillion images and the bits and pieces that need to be run to create the cool art effects in Photoshop. And they need to get MOVED to make space.

Sooo, today, Mom figured she would take the time to move all the art files from the old laptop to her backup hard disk. And we found some gold!

Here are some wonderful Computer Art (Mosty using watercolor effects) of our good Buddy Beau!

We hope you enjoy them as much as we did!

August 26th International Dog Day

Does this dog look familiar? If you said yes, then you know Beau!

Beau has his very own Love Seat that he sleeps on by his dad Bob. Bob has not been well and Beau's Mom Sandra has been his primary caregiver. Beau's Mom is a terrific digital artist, lately she has not had the opportunity to create much, but this last week, up popped this gorgeous picture of Beau!

Here is Beau going for a ride in his car! Like most dogs, he LOVES his rides! Nutmeg loves her's too!

Beau! You are the bestest! We always LOVE to see your happy face!

Happy International Dog Day!

You and your Mom are always so furry happy and joyous, even when things seem difficult, you guys find the silver lining!

Thankful Thursday with Cinnamon

Mom needs a day off. The day before yesterday she made No-tomato Paste and to day she made Ukrainian Borscht

and Cranberry Garlic Jelly.

I Cinnamon, snoopervised from the Living Room. (I'm not allowed in the kitchen when there is canning).

Mom also made Chicken Cacciatore for Alex with some of the No-tomato Paste and I got to be the official taster and it was yummy. Mom also made me a batch of Dog Food. And tomorrow, there might be some Chocolate Zuchinni Bread and Zuchinni Cookies (for moi!)

Alex (and me and the cats) are thankful that Mom likes to cook and that she makes stuff that is good for us to eat. We are thankful that our furrends who were hit by Hurricane Fiona in Prince Edward Island and Cape Breton (part of Nova Scotia). We, in Canada are lucky. Fiona could have been much, much worse.

We are also purraying for our Furrends in Florida. We hope the Raz, Noelle, Reesie and Peep and Beau and his Peeps are not too badly affected.

We are Thankful for you ALL!!!

Love Your Pet Day!

Wow! We are celebrating Love Your Pet Day with the blogosphere because our furrends Beau and Precious are hosting! We love them and we love you!

Can you believe how many other days today is? We went and had a look, and September 20th is also Pepperoni Pizza Day, Queso Day, Children's Day (in Germany) Fried Rice Day, Punch Day, String Cheese Day, and IT Professional Day.

We started the Day early! Cinnamon woke Mom up the way she usually does. (~~Licking~~ Kissing her eyelids).

After Cinnamon has her morning walk (and is eating her breakfast), the Cat Love Fest starts.

Mr Kozmo LOVES Mom too, and especially when he is getting his on the sofa while Mom has her coffee. He gets cheese (his thyroid meds are in the cheese).

Then it is ME! I like to get cheese too! Acually, Mom makes sure to give us ALL cheese. Sometimes Mom is too slow...

And Jo Jo, she LOVES Mom and Cheese too! (yes we all line up for our turn)

We all love our Mom and she LOVES us! We know she enjoys celebrating Love Your Pet Day every day. I bet you Peeps ALL do!

Now, it is HAPPY TUESDAY and HAPPY TUESDAY Central is Comedy Plus! Now we are looking forward to coming around and visiting you. We are joining Sandee at Comedy Plus for Happy Tuesday! Please click her button to see all the other happiness!
