On Friday, July 8, we began a series called VIEWING JUNE. Todays post, Viewing June, 24 is the last in this series. These images posted over the past 24-days were all old photos, pulled from our files and mostly my favorite ones. We had assembled them as best we could into "similar categories". Just over two years old now, June tends to be an active and photogenic cat. However, the confines of our small apartment mean I have to get a little imaginative with her from time to time to makes things "interesting" ~ for her, and to share with you!
This series came about to give me some personal time away from new posting, blogging new every day, time to focus on other things that needed attention in my life (so we did not visit or comment on other blogs as often, sorry) and it was a good and needed break, but still a fun way to stay "out here". Sure hope we didn't bore you with all the old stuff!
Mentioned above, our studio is small: one room, with a day bed, two chairs, a couple of chairs at the little table for eating which also serves as our computer work area. Early on, June took over the polka dot chair, claimed it as hers! Oh, of course, she will sit, lay anywhere/everywhere else when the mood strikes. You will find her atop cabinets (or in them), in the bathtub, under whatever she can get under, or behind. As small as this place is, she finds places to hide. Don't most kitties? But her chair, she always returns to her chair. So it was only natural that she became the Polka Dot Kitty. And so it is natural to end this series with the . . .
Today we all celebrate National Mutt Day.
And there is no better choice than our sweet friend MISS MACKEY as our mascot for this day.
Mutts! Mixed breeds! Forty-Nine Flavors! Whatever you may call these woofies,
they are the best of the best, and when you are looking to rescue or to adopt,
consider the friendship of a mutt, you'll have a friend forever to be sure.
Tomorrow begins a new month, August: the dog days of summer!
And the way it's been 'round the USofA and most of the planet, it is also
the cat days of summer! Hot and hotter. But be sure to check out
where all the "cool events and badges" for August
will be posted tomorrow. You'll see some of your pet friends there,
and we hope you'll be joining in the fun of these events!
And remember, if you'd like to volunteer to sponsor future events, just
email me, thanks!
Zoolatry will be back later this week, see you in a few days.
I had a girl friend who lived in a studio apartment for 25 years. Alas, without aid of kitty, but purrfectly content with the simple life. Tough on young cats to keep active, but Precious is now going on 11 and a house makes no difference to her as the days and nights are spent sleeping.
ReplyDeleteYou managed the art of keeping us entertained while you tended to looking after you !
ReplyDeleteWe are always happy to see June on her polka dot chair :)
Enjoy your "me" time and relax and have some FUN!
Purrs, Julie
June we think mew look gorgeous on your polkadot chair!
ReplyDeleteHi June! At least your mom kept your blog going when she was attending to other things. Ours isn't as organized! You are the cutest polka dot kitty.
ReplyDeletePolkadot June is my most favorite June.. and I had no idea ll the photos this month were archives. I loved every single one of them. Feedly or blogger is not working well and your posts are not coming to feedly. mine are not either. I found out yesterday when Sandy said she thought I quit posting. I am using dash board reader and found several over the past few days that did not see. enjoy your time off
ReplyDeletePolka dots just seem to say June to Us (mol). As for the small studio apartment - it's as big as your heart, and June must know that.
ReplyDeleteHi Sweetie. You have an amazed look on your face in one of those. I enjoyed that!
ReplyDeleteWe adore your photos, June...such an adorable kitty!
ReplyDeleteLife is a marathon, not a sprint.
Sometimes, taking a seat while the rest moves along, is the bestest thing.
I was not at all bored and appreciated all the photos!!
ReplyDeleteYour pictures are NEVER boring, Miss June!! We loved this series, actually!
ReplyDeleteAnd we totally forgot, that we as mutts, ( Petcretary calls our breed Muttski), had a special day...bad petcretary, BOL!!
We enjoyed this retrospective of sweet June and always enjoy seeing pictures of her both old and new.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you two got some much needed time away, you both deserve it! Viewing June was wonderful, I just love that sweet little one!
ReplyDeleteWe love all your photos but the ones on your polka dot chair are always special.
ReplyDeleteIt may be the end of the Viewing Series, but we never tire of viewing June. Mom is like you, running out of good blog ideas plagues her all the time.
ReplyDeleteHope all is well.

They are lovely photos. Feedly is playing up again and I got several of your posts in one go this morning, and from The Eastside Cats too. A couple of weeks ago it was Erin's posts!
ReplyDeleteIt was a great Juney viewing party, if you ask us. We're like Eric and Flynn's mum -- Feedly has been wonky about showing us posts on time. We see FIVE from you today. Hope you had a nice break!
