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
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.
