This cat hates me




It's not his fault really. His story is sad. He had an owner that had some issues. He was thrown against the wall repeatedly and starved. Eventually, the cat's original owner's caretaker took him away and gave him to my boyfriend. The cat doesn't like very many women in general.

He's getting better with me. He'll play with me and sometimes allow me to pet him but he still won't let me hold him like my boyfriend does.

Playing in Snow

For New Years, my boyfriend and I went to visit snowy Prescott, AZ.  I have lived my whole life in areas where snow only shows up about every 30 years or so and never sticks to the ground.  We figured out a way to go sledding without any sort of toboggan, made snow angels, had snow ball fights, and tried to build a snow man. 

We had the idea to make a snow monster instead. This was what we intended to make:


This is what we ended up with:


The "people" running away look more like they are worshipping the monster than running away. Did we accidently make a false idol? 

I wasn't about to leave behind my awesome bunny monster hat but the monster looked like just a mound without it so we made a face out of sticks for him.


Now he looks sad. We went back and checked on him the next day and he was still there. I really hope no one knocked him down.


What do you guys think of me posting photos? I'm just trying to get more content for you guys and I don't have ideas for drawings that make sense without a real life connection.
