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.

Someone tell me how to get rid of this annoying new kitten!

He scares me.  He has so much energy and runs around constantly.  He chases me & swats at my butt with his paws.  And my mom is paying way too much attention to him.  I don't know why she thinks he's so cute.  I hate having attention taken away from me!  I've started spending more time playing with her beads.  At least that way I get her attention.
My Mom told me that in October she's going to do something called a promotion.  The 25th person to sign up to follow this blog will get a free pair of earrings!  You can choose any earrings in her Etsy shop.  The 50th person will get a free necklace.  For that you can choose 1 of the necklaces shown in the Necklace page of this blog.  To follow, just click the Follow button on this page.    If you have any questions about this post a comment and we'll post the answer.
Okay, so here's a picture of this annoying kitten.  Can any of you tell me why my mom thinks he's so cute?

Labor Day? What is THAT??

I've heard labor is the same thing as work.  I'm a cat, so I don't do that.  My only job is to look pretty so my mom will scratch me, pet me, and feed me. 
I'm getting used to the little black kitten, although I still don't like him.  I've figured out that as long as he's sleeping I don't have to worry about him.  This is great because I feel safe enough to lay on the bed with my mom again.  I missed that.  I like to lay beside her while she watches that box with moving things in it (she calls it "TV").  Lately I've taken to sleeping on her head while she sleeps.  It's nice and warm there.
She hasn't made too many new jewelry pieces lately.  I haven't been in the mood to help her design - I've discovered a new spot to look out the window, so I spend most of my time there.  Since I turned 16 last month, I've been a little sleepier than usual.  I suppose I should take a look at some of her beads and give her some advice, though.  But that sounds like work, and like I said, I don't do that.  She did make this necklace without my help - she said something about "om".  Maybe she just said "um".  Who knows?  Time for a nap.
Ta ta!

New addition to my design team

A few weeks ago my human mom brought home an annoying, tiny black kitten.  I don't know where he came from, but he's driving me crazy!  He follows me around everywhere, tries to get me to play with him, eats my food, sleeps in my spots, and takes up too much of my mom's attention.  I can't imagine why my mom did this.  I just hope that I can get him to help out with the jewelry design business.  If he's going to be here and annoy me he can at least be useful!

Meet my partner, Scully

She's my adopted younger sister and is going to help me with my fabulous beaded designs.  Since she's a few years younger, maybe she will motivate me to write posts here more often.
She came into my life back in 1997 when she was only the size of Mom's palm.  Mom said she found her in the middle of a busy intersection.  The silly thing ran into the middle of the road & just laid down!  It's lucky for her that my Mom was driving by and Mom is a big sucker for homeless critters.  I wasn't very happy when Mom first brought her home.  I didn't want to share my space and I certainly didn't want to share Mom's attention.  I hissed and growled and gave the little one the evil eye so she'd leave me alone.  She kept following me around like she wanted ME to be her mother!  Eventually she gave up, though, and left me alone until I got used to her.  She still follows me around some times like the tag-along that she is, but it doesn't bother me so much.  I guess I've grown a little fond of her over the years.  She is kind of cute, in a little kitten kind of way.  (not anything like my beauty, though.)

So we should have some pictures of our fun jewelry to show you soon!  xxoo Buddy and Scully
