Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween, Samhain, and beginning of the holiday season from our home to yours!




Tuxie enjoying his perch on the world and his safe distance from it. No kitty born in the wild renounced the world for a kitty condo as fast and decisively as he did.



Bingo and Sam enjoying a Halloween (end of Winterfilth) sunset.

More pics of this bucolic scene can be found here.

And I'll be happy if I can ever get rid of this cold/virus/thing, that started at the end of NYC trip, almost went away, and came for another round this week. Meh. Off to bed with me. Goodnight!

The inside is awesome, nothing tries to kill you and all the unpoisoned food and water you could ever want.

Where'd you get all the wee props for Sam and Bingo? That looks keen.

[lavendertook]

Well, that's the plan, anyway.

Assembled across time and space--lessee:

Backdrop pic is a poster I got years ago--maybe at the college bookstore.

The trees are branches from the woods around my apartment building.

The bench, garden tools, baskets, moss, and half their clothes are from the thrift shop.

The fake pumpkins, gourds, and grassy stuff are from the Dollar Store.

The 2 real pumpkins are from a farmer's market.

Sam's vest and Bingo's shirt are from ebay doll dealers.

The stuffed bear and witch cat are from a card store after last year's Halloween.

That covers it.

And thank you! (-:

Now that's a nice bit of scavenging.

[lavendertook]

Yes, I was a starling or magpie in a former life.

Love the pictures.

Funny how different animals deal with the inside/outside thing. I know plenty of former ferals that regard Outside as the uttermost reaches of hell. But Gabriel loves being able to go out. And come back in again, preferably 4,000 times a day.

Thank you!

Heee! Loveable pain in the butt!

Tuxie's moving in particularly amused me because he decided to move in before his mom, Moo, who was the socialized one who adored being petted by anyone. She did not decide to become a completely indoor cat until I moved from my efficiency into the one bedroom in the building next door, which she checked out and approved before I moved into it. In the efficiency she'd cry nonstop to be taken back out, but in the one bedroom, she's never made a peep at the door.

Aiiii!! A black cat!!!! Fortunately it's not Halloween anymore, so it's safe to gaze upon him! Such a handsome cat!

*sends hobbits with hot tea and honey*

He's a very pretty kitty.

Yay! Hobbits are just what I needed! *hugs*

Sending tea and warm thoughts your way, feel better.

Tuxie is a handsome lad.

*offers hot tea and soup and Ranger-healing*

He's a a very pretty kitty. A good singer too. Though sometimes a bit of an oaf.

Thank you! *hugs you*

Tuxie is a smart cat, he knows it's better inside than out.

[lavendertook.livejournal.com]

That he is.

Tuxie!!! I miss Tuxie and his friends! :) ♥

[lavendertook.livejournal.com]

They're all bigger hugmuffins now that it's getting cold. (-:

That's a scary cat! :D

[lavendertook.livejournal.com]

More like a scaredy cat--he runs and hides from anyone he doesn't know. But when he wants to be hugged, he wants to hugged as tight as you can squeeze him. (-:

Awwww, your Tuxie is such a cutiee!! *steals* :))))

*squishes* I said it before but I have to say it again - that is one gorgeous Halloween hobbit pic!!!!!!! Thank you!!

[lavendertook.livejournal.com]

He can be kind of a jerk sometimes the way he punches Saki and Moo, but he snuggles up with me and Saki like a little sweetie. (-:

Thank you, hon! *hugs tight*
