Photo Of The Week
Legend – Mister Big Paws
Thought For The Day
Bless their little pointed faces and their big, loyal loving hearts.
If a cat did not put a firm paw down now and then,
How could his human remain possessed?

BTW – I have been dying to create a layout or collage and am so squeezed for time…grrrrr. Hope all is well with you !
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
I know what you mean! I have been SO wanting to join the art challenges but am still trying to dig stuff out of boxes!
Here and there I am trying to squeeze in a few moments to play with scraps though – trying to make some tags and ATCs when I can –
Of course, now I’ve run out of the adhesive that I’ve currently found so need to fight the holiday traffic at the craft store – ugh!

They are not only big – but they are weighted with lead!!! 🙂
Good Morning! Stop by and see the newest addition to our family.

I LOVE your beautiful new kitten! This must be the week for new kittens – you and Deb are putting IDEAS in my head!!!
Well she’s not a kitten. She’s 5 yrs. old. Are you going to get a kitten or an adult?
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
I would love to get a new kitten… but both of my boys are the VERY jealous type!
Love all those little tufts of fur!
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
Aren’t they the cutest thing? Happy Thanksgiving to you Pam (and to your cats too!)
Oh! We love big kitty paws! Speaking of that, we have a new family member over at Zee & Zoey’s that will just melt your heart. His name is Kizmet and we rescued him from a Pet Supermarket. He appears to be part Maine Coon and is the most adorable creature ever – I hope you and your furry gang will stop by to meet him! Not to mention… he has enormous hind paws and it seems we will have a big boy on our hands!
Have a great Thanksgiving!
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
Oh my goodness Deb – I am in LOVE! Kizmet is the sweetest thing every!
YES – cat lovers, if you haven’t met Deb – be sure to visit her, Kizmet, and her family of Maine Coons and Bengals!
You will NOT be disappinted – I promise! 🙂

My children really enjoy the cat photos! Our beloved cat, Tribble, died two years ago this week, and there isn’t a day that goes by that we don’t miss her. She was with us for 15 years.
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
Thank you so much Jennifer – it really makes me smile when I receive word that people’s children love visiting my cats!
I am so sorry, though, to hear about your loss of Tribble. I know that anniversaries are especially difficult times!
What a beaut, and it looks like he doesn’t mind the camera at all!
Mr. Big Paw’s is right!
Thanks for linking up for WW!

Wondering if he has saber sharp claws sheathed in those enormous furry paws.
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
You would not believe his claws… they would rival the sharpest of swords… I will have to feature them in a future post!

I love kitty cat paws!!! They’re so soft and fluffy!
Cats with big paws, which we call meat-hooks, are my favorite!
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
First time I’ve heard that!
We call them his scoopy paws!
Those paws do look awfully big.
He he. Cute.
His paws are so fluffy, too!!

Maine Coons are built for cold weather. The tufts help them navigate snow (although mine will never experience it!)
At first I thought he’s (or she?) wearing shoes 🙂 So cute!
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
Nope – he just has huge paws – lol!
Love the perspective. I miss my Persian…
Twitter: CreateWithJoy1
says:
My very first cat was a beautiful Persian – they are so sweet!
I hope that when the time is right another one steals your heart (and takes over your home!)
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!!
Your TX furiends,

Oh my, what big paws you have (just need Goldilocks and we’d be well away here…). Such a beautiful boy – am very sad at the moment as I lost my own old beautiful boy Posky yesterday after rescuing him 17 years ago…

I am SO sorry for your loss Barbara. I am sad too.
