My cats and I had a special visitor today - PICTURES TOO!

What a great time you all had. I love those kitty toys, Autumn would love those springy ones. I'll have to look around and see if I can find one for her, thanks for sharing the pics.
It was a wonderful afternoon, though it went so quickly. I am lucky to live so close to Lauren. It's the second time we have gotten together, and we have another date planned for very soon. The first time Lauren brought me this wonderful statuette, about 2.5" tall, of a black cat on a base of polished agate. It's a little image of Bastet, I think. I treasure it. It was so sweet of her, but that's just how she is.
Lauren's house is very beautiful and elegant, though comfy and warm also. It is set on the edge of a woods.
Her cats are just gorgeous!!!!! I was flattered that Perkins and Perla let me get so close to them as they are especially shy. They know a crazy cat lady when they see one. The others let me pet them, even Pipsqueak, and Walden even rubbed against my legs!
They all are so happy and healthy. They have a wonderful home.
Her dogs, who I met before, are just adorable, also, and so nice.
I'm thrilled that they liked their toys. Those springs I buy from Amazon. They are made by Spot and are called "Colorful Springs Wide 10-Pack." They don't cost much - compared to most cat toys. I also got the "Crazy Cat Lady Action Figure" from Amazon.
We had a delicious lunch and great conversation - almost all about cats (big surprise there). Lauren is going to come over to my house and meet my cats next time.
She is a lovely person inside and out and I am thrilled to have met her. It's the best thing that has come out of tcs, for me.
The only thing is, that picture of me is just awful. If I looked that bad in person, well, I'd head for the hospital.
I took some pictures of her cats and dogs, and I want to post some of them, but I'm currently having computer problems. If I can, I'll post them later.
Thanks for all the nice comments, everyone. Go ahead and be jealous. You have good reason.

Looks and sounds like a great day together!! I LOVE the crazy cat lady doll!
We've got some of those springs too, I got them from Entirelypets.com when I was buying Advantage. I think the 6 pack was less than $2. Definitely worth it! They roll, they bounce, they don't get chewed apart (yet).. highly recommended.

OH Robin, how very kind, the things you say. And you DO NOT look awful in that picture. I think I look terrible too. But, it was hard for us to take our picture. I had to hold the camera while we tried our best to look "pretty"Originally Posted by bastetservant

Thanks friends
. We just look a bit "not like ourselve" in that photo because it was taken so close and I was holding the camera.
. We are going to a play next Sunday and I will be going to her house to meet her cats. Maybe will get another picture of us then. My cats have already LOST those springy toys! I am looking everywhere and I found two. They just love those and I am going to order some more. The best cat toy EVER!!
Thank you, Lauren and Robin, for sharing your lunch date with us. The pictures are great; it seems that a good time was had by all! You're very lucky to live so close to each other---sounds as if you guys have each found a new bestie!
Oh you're completely crazy!!!!! We're our own worst critics - you both look completely WONDERFUL!
Yeah, thanks, rub it in why don't you?????????Originally Posted by bastetservant

And yes we do feel completely the same about you.
Here are some of the better pictures I took at Lauren's house. First Lovely Perla!
Perkins (red and white) and Wendall on one of the many cat trees at their house (sorry about the glare).
Here is sweet, sweet, Henry, with Presley passing by in the back.
And dear, dear Wilbur on his "water bed."
The other pictures of the other cats weren't so great as I didn't have the time to really work on it.
Robin
Great pics!! The cats looked happy, the cupcakes look like they were delicious and I loveeeeeeee the cat lady action figure!! lol
