This is the 15th year of continuous daily publication for 365Caws. All things considered, it's likely it will be the last year as it is becoming increasingly difficult for me to find interesting material. However, I hope that I may have inspired someone to a greater curiosity about the natural world with my natural history posts, or encouraged a novice weaver or needleworker. If so, I've done what I set out to do.

Young Master Tip
Day 364: I am convinced that the superstition which designates black cats as "bad luck" originated because they justifiably sunk their teeth and claws into people who stepped on them in the dark or sat on them when they were sleeping on dark upholstery, bad luck for the person who was clawed and bitten, but worse luck for the poor cat. Whatever the reason, the reputation is undeserved. I have shared my home with several black or black-and-white cats over the years, and Master Tip is certainly one of the sweetest and most loving kitties I've known. My Boy has been with me for five years now, and certainly qualifies as a stroke of good luck in my book.
