We Wish You a Merry Christmas!

It’s almost Christmas. This year, I brought in some more foster-cats – three, I think; I lose count sometimes – one was adopted, one died and one remains. Horace is among his new family, learning their ways, and showing them his. Minuet came and charmed all those who knew her in the short time she was with us. Kitten Zofia continues to bring liveliness to the Cosy Apartment, often at four o’clock in the morning.

Below is my Christmas card for 2022, the outside and the inside. (You can enlarge it, I think, by clicking on it.) It seemed fitting that Madame be included, and the card was designed before Ivory was adopted. I hope his new people will forgive this trespass upon their prerogative.

May this Yuletide bring joy and peace – contentment, at the least – and a little ease in what always seems a busy year.

God bless you all.
