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.

Beware Of Cat
Day 88: Once I had the idea in my head, I simply had to make a blue-point Siamese version of the pussy hat for myself, freeing up the grey one to be given to another marcher who may share my dislike of pink. A small amount (the ear linings) is tolerable in the name of the cause.
When I was young, we had a Siamese who was my constant companion, a smart and very personable cat, not at all yowly as some people claim Siamese to be. As an adult, I shared my home with another member of the breed, and a dearer little soul you'd never find. If I'd been out, as soon as I opened the door, he would leap into my arms and stick like glue for the rest of the day. I've had a number of cats in my life, but some left more enduring memories than others. My two Siamese were "special people."
