We Are Two Cats & This Is Our Blog!

Welcome! We are two cats, named Quinn & Masako...

We asked Mama today if we could have a typepad blog too, and she said okay, and now we have one!  Just the whole idea of it makes us purr and chirp!  We hope you like it...you will find all kinds of things in here about all kinds of things that we like about being "cats" - but mostly mama calls us "creatures of fur and light".  Also we like to make art and so we'll share that with you too.

Masako made this happy face with the last few crumbs of a snack to bring a smile to catmama's face and it did!  Do you like it too? 

A LITTLE MORE ABOUT US:

We really like a fresh cardboard box to think in and we like to think outside of the box too and another favorite thing we love is a nice fresh bowl of cool water.  And lazy afternoons and each other...we are brother and sister and we are best friends!

Quinn's loving the fresh cool water and the beauty of his little dish.  He takes note of the design as he happily laps dew amongst the flowering blossoms of a quince tree in ancient Kyoto garden...after this he'll get back on his cardboard boat and drift into a dream.  

...Quinn drifts off and wakes up in a bed of dreamflowers...

"Pretty blue blossoms big as life and full of llght -

like the miniature blue blossoms of that lovely tree

at the center of my water bowl

in the middle of that mystical garden

in Old Kyoto."

...AND OF COURSE, SHE GETS IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 

 

 

We Are Quinn and Masako and We Are Beautiful!

 

We know we are because that's what our catmama tells us and other people always say it too...not too certain what it means but it sounds good and makes us feel good too.  We think beautiful is something good and something good is beautiful

Masako Thinks Orchids Are Good and Beautiful...

So pretty!  They are bigger than I am!  Enjoy some pretty flowers today!

Maybe you can find some that are bigger than you...

I know when Mama sees me here, she will want to take my picture! 

We Want To Thank You!!

We two cats, Quinn & Masako, feel really fine about our new blog on Type(paw)pad ---- we thank you for visiting us and making your nice comments to think about and answer....we like to share our dreams & art & stories & everything feline & fine with you.  WE extend our paws to you in friendship!

Since we are doing this blog together we refer to ourselves as "we" or else in the thirdcat.  Maybe you don't know this - a cat does not think of itself as an "I".  Quinn is Quinn and Masako is Masako and we are mysterious to everyone but us - because we just are just like that.

Here is Masako making a little magic - imagining a room into a bamboo garden and in the lower left-paw corner Quinn is stepping in thinking a little koi-pond might be nice too.
