Kats, Cats and Even More!
Hello all!
My name is Kathryn. I live in suburban Cleveland. I have 2 cats, who are my kids. I’m a preschool and school age teacher at a local childcare center.
I love to bake. My coworkers get to be my taste testers. I enjoy coloring, and I even participate in a coloring Meet Up group. I’m a fan of all kinds of music, but country is my favorite. My kitties, Gidgette and Ivory, are my favorite models for my photography. I play around with photo editors to create what I call “Works of Art”. I’m not very good at it, but I do it anyway.

I just found out about this internet sensation cat today from a post on MetaFilter. Clearly, I’ve been out of the cat loop. Sadly, this cutie passed away. Lil Bub was the runt of the litter born to a feral mom. She had several genetic mutations, including feline dwarfism. Because of this condition, she could not…
Who knew there were so many cat comics and cartoons out there. Here are some that are in my RSS feed… Ten Cats Breaking Cat News Fat Cats Ask a Cat How to Cat Heathcliff And of course… Garfield (And, just for fun….. Garfield Minus Garfield)
Here are some sites I’ve bookmarked that might come in useful for you Kat Parents (and other Pet Parents, too). PetMD Veterinary Partner Cat Friendly Homes Merck Veterinary Manual Quality of Life Scale for Cats When Might it be Time to Say Goodbye Is it an Emergency?
I’ve finally gotten around to editing recent videos of Ivory and Gidgette. I’m no pro, for sure. Basically I’ve figured out how to remove the existing soundtrack and add a new one. That’s about it. I’ve been using iMovie on my phone. Later (when I finally find some energy) I might see what kind of…
I’ve been playing with photo editing apps again. I find it quite relaxing. Gidgette and Ivory are the perfect models.
I caught the sun shining on the tree in my backyard. You can’t really tell from the picture, but the sun lit up the red leaves. I’m planning on going back to Bridal Veil Falls this weekend if the weather is nice. However, I’m not getting my hopes up. There’s rain in the forecast both…
Last weekend I went to the Bedford Reservation of the Cleveland Metroparks. The Metroparks are known as the Emerald Necklace. They cover over 23,000 acres and contain more than 300 miles of trails. I’m lucky enough to live just a few minutes from Bedford Reservation. I used to hike down to Bridal Veil Falls quite…
Bowie is my brother’s cat. My youngest brother, Chris adopted Bowie when he was in college. When he got married, Bowie went to live with Billy because Kristin is allergic to cats. Bowie is actually an old man now. He’s somewhere around 15. Bowie loves boxes. When I was over Billy’s house last weekend, Bowie…
Catnip….. Some cats are crazy for it. Some cats could care less. Ivory and Gidgette are sort of in the middle. Today, they were into it. I don’t give them ‘nip very often. I usually end up vacuuming it up off the floor.
Last night, I went to Severance Hall to see our world famous Cleveland Orchestra. The program consisted of Schubert’s Symphony No. 3 in D Major and Act 1 of Prokofiev’s Romeo and Juliet. I found out reading the program that Welder-Most, our current music director, has a important relationship with Schubert and his music. As…
