A Monochrome Monday

Hi everyone, Katie here.

Don't let my ever-so-slightly-roundish figure fool you...it's clearly just a bad camera angle. Or possibly a little water weight from my last stop at the fountain. My official *weigh-in* at the V-E-T was postponed, so I'm going in this Wednesday. Glogirly says I feel light as a feather. I BETTER feel light as a feather what with Waffles chasing me chasing Waffles around the Townhouse all the time.

And don't even get me started on the food shenanigans. For someone who doesn't care much about HIS food, Waffles sure cares a lot about MINE.


I'm Innocent


He claims he's innocent. But don't let this serene monochromatic photo fool you. He's simply plotting his next caper.



♥ Abby ♥

The real reason we've gone monochrome this Monday is because we are thinking so very much about our dear friend Abby, from Manx Mnews

She is gravely ill and we are very worried about her. Her mom's heart is breaking, and so are ours as we read her updates and deep-from-the-heart thoughts about her sweet girl. 

They are in our prayers.

We love you, Abby.

  6. We're all purring hard for Abby and her Mom. It's just so incredibly hard when our fur babies are sick.

    These photos are all very cool, but esp. yours, Katie. You look like you are striding with a purpose.

  8. Don't they say something about the camera adding 10 pounds? Wonder if it applies to cats too? I personally think you're looking great though - good luck at the vet!

  13. Watching a good friend's kitty in pain or struggle with illness is so very heartbreaking. We just had to comfort our mom a bunch because one of her good friend's kitties, Amber, fought a long battle with cancer and finally went to the Rainbow Bridge.

    We will go leave them some purrs. We hope that she gets well very soon!!

    Katie, we hope you won't have to be on a diet much longer; that does not sound like fun!

    Purrs,
    Carmine and Milita

  16. We're purring fur Abby too. You look beautiful to us, Katie. We're not fooled ... We see a maniacal glint in Waffles' eyes. You're wise to be alert! Have a good week!

  17. It is just the way you are shown in that picture that seems to add a little to your girth. Look at your lEFT side, not your RIGHT.

    It is so upsetting how sick Abby is and we really are praying for a miracle.

  21. If we didn't know better, and we do, that does look an awful lot like some belly swing action going on. But we know it's all down to the photographer and poor framing abilities.

    We're thinking and purring for Abby

  24. We are purring like crazy for Abby.

    And Katie...we hope your weigh-in goes your way. :)

  25. Katie, it's the "lure of the forbidden". Why go for YOUR OWN food when attempting to steal others' noms is SO much sweeter - especially if you SCORE?

    I totally get that ... But I never EVER steal Morticia's food ... *wink wink*

    Besides, she was nearly finished with her gooshy goodness anywho ....

    Sending purrs for Abby.

    PURRZ

  29. I never realized Abby was one of my Twitter furrends too until last night. I started a #pawcircle for her and we're camping out on #Abbysporch. I hope she can fight this off and get well. And, no, you don't look rounded.

  32. I always love the way you photograph both Katie and Waffles. You have that eye for a beautiful composition. Love the BW (and of course Katie is BW!!). Thank you so much for sending out such a sweet thought for my baby girl. Just this moment her Vet called and said she is looking so much better. What it all means I don't know but it's good news and positive and I'll take that.Thank you too for all your kindness and your words of support. Going through all of this heavy heartbreak it helps to have the edges soothed by compassionate friends like you. Thank you. ((hugs))
