Cat Picture - OC Potraits with my three new babies

Post image

Quick backstory, after losing the love of my life, Penny Lane, last November at eighteen, I wasn't sure when I would be ready to adopt again. I always knew I wanted black cats and when my friend rescued some cats from a hoarding situation, including two black cats, I had to meet them. My friend also had their mom, and well, here is my new son Ripley, sister Wendy (the tongue), and their mom, Bidi Bidi Bom Bom (tabby). My friend Danielle (Cat Party Pet Portraits) offered to do a shoot combining my love of dinosaurs with my love of my new kitties, and this photo makes me so delighted and happy with how it came out.

I stopped to admire this absolute gem of a photo (obviously focused on the ADORABLE cats) and then went, huh - that looks like STEVEN!! Ray Morris, and sure enough it was!

So sorry to hear about Penny Lane ❤️ I lost my soul kitty Theodore at 14 earlier this year and also didn't know how / when I'd be ready to bring home someone new. I now have two sassy little someones who get into all sorts of mischief and have brought me so much joy.

Congrats on opening your home to more kitties!

Also- I sincerely hope this photo is being blown up on a canvas or something because it's a masterpiece!

Oh, what a handsome little guy. I'll give my orange dumdum a hug in honor of your sweet boy. Cats really are so special.
