Please take me with you

 

I am not feeling well, so decided to skip What's On Your Workdesk this Wedneday.  Instead, I am going to try to rest and play catch up with all the lovely art I've missed at Art Journal Journey.  I also want to share another entry for Elle's theme, which is Books, Cats, Tea.

Please take me with you.  When I saw this calendar page, I was reminded of the kittens I saw at the Humane Society where I adopted Squiggles.  They all had that pleading look on their faces, hoping I would choose one of them.  Here are a few detail shots.

I adhered this spread, part of a calendar using a glue stick.  I created it in my Cats altered book.  I noticed all the leaves on the page and decided to create a few of my own from my stash.  I also ran brown dye ink around the outside of the pages.

If you have room in your heart and your home to adopt a cat, dog, or other animal from your humane society, I highly recommend doing so.  When I adopted Squiggles, he had a microchip and had been neutered.  He was also sandbox trained, something important to me (after the mess I had with Bleubeard).  Bleubeard doesn't have a microchip, but he has an ID tag on his breakaway collar.  I paid a fortune to have Bleubeard neutered and the entire service was already performed for Squiggles, who was six weeks and three days old when I adopted him.  

Don't go to your humane society to just look around.  You will never be able to leave without a new pet who is looking for a forever home, just like I envision this kitten in the basket is hoping for.

Thanks beyond belief for joining Bleubeard, Squiggles, and me today.  We are grateful you stopped by.  We also hope you will join us at Art Journal Journey with your take on Books, Cats, and/or Tea.
