Abby cat is everywhere!

Abby was my mom's cat. When my mom went to live in a nursing home Abby moved in with me. She immediately made herself at home.

She LOVES the bathroom.

Apple jade and fresh water pearls.

These beautiful dyed stones are so versatile. Their different colors, sizes, and shapes have so much character.

My sweet Babygirl

We had to say goodbye to my Babygirl. She was 16 years old. When I brought her home she was a tiny thing. She only weighed a pound. I've had her for 16 years.

She was in kidney failure and she was not eating and just loosing weight. You could just look into her eyes and tell she was sick and did not feel well. She will be miss.
