I could not resist making this card! It is for LSN (Linda)
Linda posted a thread looking for a specific birdie stamp. I was trying to help her find it and made a comment about Rocky...her really big black male cat and how important it might be to him that she get that stamp. Little did I know she had just had an episode with Rocky. Here is her description of what happened:
****This was occuring around 8:30 PM. Rocky is not allowed out after dark (as he is a black cat) so I was getting panicky as he wasn't coming.
I went out in the front yard and there he was, pouncing on this poor bird. He'd pounce, walk a way a few feet, hunker down and run and pounce again. There I was standing over the darn pigeon, trying to protect it and keep Rocky from pouncing all the while trying to catch the darn cat. He was covered from head to toe in feathers.****
Like I said, I could not resist. Linda...hope you don't mind me sharing your funny story!
BTW - A special thank you once again to Stamp Owl for sending me these cat images......and don't worry Frances, it was a pigeon, not an owl...
PS: The bird survived..

Yeah for the bird!! I love your Rocky cards and your wonderful stories. This one is really nice with the black and white. I had a grey cat once that had tabby markings but someone told me it couldn't be a tabby because tabby's were only the golden orange color. I'm cat stupid so I dont know if it was true or not. Either way, your lovely card reminds me of my kitty ... his name was Kit Carson ... Carson for short. blah blah blah .... I'm done.
