Beautiful Miss Peach came by

We are all so happy this evening. We are Trixie and Pyewacket from topcatrules and also Tigger the FBI cat. You see, Miss Peach was well enough to come and see us on our new blog. We are going to celebrate this evening. A small drink for Her, and a new packet of our favorite food for us.

Do you know, we took on the city's Department of Education to have Miss Peach's blog available to students as it has an incredibly high standard of photo composition that She wanted to use to inspire Her students with digital photography work.

A silly moo from the department saw the tiny little "chat box" and took it off the air just as She was starting a lesson in the computer lab! We put one on the first topcatrules site and at school, it showed a huge red sign on it saying it wasn't allowed due to "chat". She jumped up and down, told the principal and got it reinstated. (She has had Her favorite Beatrix Potter sites and Winnie-the-Pooh sites treated like this before so She is actually used to it.) You'd think they would spend more time watching what the high school students are downloading and not interfering with Her teaching.

They take off ALL Her best sites. Then She has to jump through hoops to get them released so She can teach with them. *sigh* But Miss Peach was worth it. We are more pleased than we can say about her getting well. She is such an important cat to so many. We both share an appreciation for the art of Nastasha Wescoat, and I'll bet we have a lot more in common too.

She is also using Zoolatry to teach and inspire students and Daisy's posts are also becoming regulars on the class homework website - The Cat Ate My Homework.

Again, we thank God for Miss Peach's feeling better and we are so relieved.

It's MY blog

And I WON'T share.



"OW!"

*hiccup* *sniff* "I'm in trouble now!" *wail* *sob*

Sky rockets in flight



Happy birthday to the very talented lady at Zoolatry!

Hi from me. I'm turning into a big cat now and I'm working really hard on my new website. I want you to know that I really value some of my old posts, so I am going to put them up on here because I want to close down the old site.

So I really hope you don't mind if you've seen some before, but I need to do this for my personal record. Thank you for your patience.

Pyewacket


Pyewacket is an Old Style Siamese kitten. She taught herself to play fetch with her toy mouse. Her favourite time to play this game, is in the middle of the night! And she doesn't like to play alone!




Thursday haiku

Written by one of Her students - S.

I have to chase mice,
I don't like that much at all.
I walk gracefully.



The young artist Natasha Wescoat is a new favorite of ours.

Pyewacket arrives on a 'plane

It was mid May when Pyewacket came up on a 'plane from Victoria. The whole family turned up at the airport to greet her. Well, the other two cats stayed home.

Gran came to stay to meet her.

Pyewacket is named from the 1959 Jimmy Stewart and Kim Novak movie, "Bell, Book and Candle" in which Pyewacket was the witch's familiar. She is a sealpoint Old Style Siamese. She comes from the Rosemarie Cattery in Shepparton, Victoria.
