Hi, I'm writing for Buddy today

My name is Max.  You may have read something that Buddy wrote about me.  I've only been here since July.  I've been trying to make friends with the 4 other cats who live here, but they haven't been very receptive.  I want to play with them, but most of the time they run away from me.  Or they hiss and growl and swat at me.  They're all bigger than me, so I'm a little afraid of them.  I've figured out I'm much faster than them, though!  I guess being little helps me to run faster.  No matter where they run, I'm right behind them.  AND I can squeeze under dressers and they can't, so if they get pissed at me I can hide.
I like it when I get to go outside.  There's so much more to do there.  Lots of bugs to chase, trees to climb, places to explore...  I can spend all day outside.  But I like being inside, too, especially to sleep.  I have a nice cushy pink bed that reminds me of my kitty mom.  It feels like being at her belly and nursing.  I don't know where she is now, so I'm making the best of my new family.  Someday soon I think these other cats will realize how charming I am and then they'll want to play all of the time.  I can't wait!
Nice to talk to all of you!
Max

Oops - It's custom dog jewelry, too, and I forgot to post a pic of one of the pendants

Here's a sample of one of the necklaces my mom made.  I'm sure there's some good reason it's not a picture of me.  It's that annoying black kitten again.  I guess she needs a more glamourous pendant for ME.

Custom Kitty Pictures

While I was staring out the window this week, I came up with a great idea for my mom.  She can make tiny little pictures to go in small pendants and attach them to necklaces.  Now she can wear a necklace with a picture of me all of the time!  (I'm sure that mine will be her favorite one.)  Aside from the ones created for her, she can make them for other people who have pets.  The only downside I've noticed so far is that she's so focused that she doesn't always notice that I'm ready for more food.
Aside from that, it's getting cooler and some days it's too chilly or rainy to go outside.  I'm a little bored.  I'm sleeping more and spending more time sitting and staring at my mom.  It's a fun game I play.    I sit on the floor and just stare at her.  It freaks her out.  She asks me what I want over and over, and  eventually she just gives me some kind of food.  
Time for another nap.  Be sure to check our Etsy store 405 creations and our web site (http://www.405creations.com/) next week - we should have some of those cute picture pendants on there by then.  Sweet dreams, everyone!
