This is splendid Vicky, great as always

This looks very good. o3o I'm actually really in love with it. * 3* I love Siamese cats!

very elegant!

A beautiful Meezer indeed. Our own is, as we speak, snuggling her new box.

About to have another box. This one is yours, Justine. Thanks for everything!

Justin. I can't type...

*blinkblink* Oh, my goodness. You're absolutely welcome, of course, and I'd love the piece. Let me note you, though, with something I thought about over dinner, with regard to more pressing matters on your plate...

And, um, thank you so much, and wow, and gosh, an...it's beautiful and I can't wait to frame it! :)

Such pretty blue eyes...

We used to have a siamese when I was young. She escaped one day and ate something that had been poisoned. Sadly there was nothing the vet could do to help her.

Dammit this picture brought back some memories cos it just reminds me of her. :/

Sorry, dear. I was thinking of our family cat Nefertiti. She's been gone thirty years.

Noo don't take me wrong because it's a beautiful picture. And with the wings..

If you don't mind I shall think of it as a picture of our own kitty, too.

Siamese are guardians. They guard everybody. Even us.

"We are Siamese, if you please...
We are Siamese if you don't please..."

A cat as guardian angel? I don' t know how well that would work out in practice. I can imagine the following incident:

Helpless Mortal: "Help! My SUV is on fire and out of control! I'm going to collide simultaneously with a school bus full of orphaned lepers and a tanker trailer of nitroglycerin!"

Cat Guardian Angel: "In a minute! Can't you see I'm eating my Friskies."

HM: "But I only have microseconds to live!"

CGA: "It'll just have to wait."

HM: "Noooooo -- KA-BLAM!"

CGA: "Just as well, I feel like taking a nap now anyway."

It truly depends on the cat. The Evil Peep... Absolutely. Shadow... He'd be happy to help, he just wouldn't know how. Sully... He'd pull you out pf the burning car. Ditto Saffron. Polly... would go get an exstingisher, put out the fire and cry. Cleo... would pull you out of the car so you could open a can of cat food. Squeak would call 911, then cry.

Nefertiti, the old Siamese who is the subject of this exercise, would pull you out of the car, then bust you upside the head for disturbing her.

It certainly looks very graceful and dignified. It has a pretty peicing stare to its eyes and a confitient stern expression on its face. I love the blue of the eyes and the deep brown of its body.
