Hi Folks!
I am having a wonderful week. I did a
portrait of a lovely blind cat called Murdock. Murdock is a real character and I found him on facebook where he has a
page. He had a chronic
infection in both eyes that had caused them to rupture. He was adopted by a Vetinary Technician who took him home
who says "I didn't plan on keeping him while I was fostering him, but we went through so
much and we were very attached to each other by the time he was finally
fully recovered. He was really sick for a long time and almost didn't
survive his first surgery. He had to have a blood transfusion and was
hospitalized in an oxygen chamber.
Even while going through his
trials, Magical Murdock has been a very loving and happy kitten. His
positive attitude and sweet disposition steal the hearts of many. He
continues to thrive and doesn't let his disability slow him down. He's a
true inspiration, not to mention the most amazing, handsome cat I've
ever known!"
He is a bit of a star and you can learn more about him
here and vote for him over at Modern Cat Magazine. I hope Murdock is paw-sitively beaming about his paw-trait.
All right all right enough with the cat puns....

Brrr we are at 13 degrees and when I went outside my face froze so I am
staying inside. I hope the animals are okay - the squirrels and owls and
bunnies. I hope they're all snuggled together having a party in some
hollow tree! Here's my latest pic 'Owl in the Snow' which can be bought as a print over at Redbubble.
And here's some tips to help the birds in your neighborhood survive the winter.
Stay warm!
