The Cat Whisperer

There is a strange situation in my house.  I'm just going to put it out there now before you start to ask questions.

My daughter Madison, aka Maddie, has the same name as my cat Maddie.  Please just accept it and don't ask questions and we can go on being friends.

Ok, now that I have that out in the open.  My daughter Maddie has a very unique gift with animals and with Maddie the cat in particular.  

Now, let it be said that of all the cats I've ever owned, this one is the most persnickety.  She's the prettiest, the dumbest and the most likely to have an apoplectic fit.  However, Madison is able to tame her in some manner which the rest of us know nothing about.

The most recent event was the one demonstrated in the Layout below.  Have you ever seen a grown cat calmly riding a girl?  I do understand that all feline kind believe themselves to be royalty.  I get that, but I'm pretty sure that they normally would consider themselves above such undignified behavior.  

Well, see for yourself.  The proof is in the picture!




Everything came from the Glee Club kit over at Studio Calico.  I zinged the 'oh snap' phrase in Aqua.   And I did add some grey star patterned Washi Tape by MT which is actually going to be in next months kit!

As always, thanks for stopping in!  Have a lovely day!

  24. This layout is awesome. Not only the beautiful page itself, but the content. How funny of your cat.
    We have a cat that has the same personality of my daughter (who owns her).
    They are truly two of a kind.
