Our new little guy still goes under the bed and shies away from loud noises…
.
.
But when he’s out and about he’s a sweetie. And a bit of a goofball.
.
.
With enough of the typical you were put on this planet to serve me cattitude to warrant his name.

Two full days in and we managed to get the new kitty out from under the china hutch.

I don’t think he was thrilled to have a close up portrait taken, but I’ve got news for him. You can’t be camera shy and live in this house. Momma’s got a blog to write.

Yeah, I had no clue what it was either.
Anyway you look at it, they were all impressive. But when the docent asked us if we’d been in the masterclass room yet…
I realized there was a whole other level of craftsmanship.
These models?
Were simply works of art.
The detail was almost unbelievable.
I’d never heard of Mr. Crabtree….
But my proverbial hat was off to him.
I can’t even imagine the patience it took to create these beauties.
They were exquisite.
And if that doesn’t knock your socks off?
Oh, come on.
That’s crazy!
Bravo August.
You certainly did that…
