Meet Velesa

aka She-Devil!
We are cat sitting for Mom and Dad while they vacation in southern IL checking out the state parks and wineries. Chris says we must be cat people if the number of cats in the house out number us. I’ll give him that. Velesa, yes named for the dinosaur, is an old kitty. We got her the year Jurassic Park came out on video. She was jumping around like a raptor and so she got her name. She’s half Siamese and half Persian, so that explains the long hair and her vocal qualities.
All these years she’s been the only cat in Mom and Dad’s house. She’d never even been in the same house as another cat until we got Orion. And that didn’t go over too well. Last November we watched her and she was not a happy camper but she did ok. This time around she wants nothing to do with me. She’s kept separate from Orion and Mira, and since they have each other they leave her alone. But if I go in the room with her she lets me know how upset she is. Chris went in to feed her last night and she became her lovey dovey self. He brushed her for a bit, she ate in front of him while he rubbed her. So at least she likes someone in the house. The picture is one Mom took and caught her yawning. It’s pretty much the same look that she’s been giving me the last couple days while hissing except her eyes are open! She’s actually a very pretty cat, she just misses Mom and Dad.

Here’s the next flower I uploaded…. Just Beginning. I showed it a couple months ago when I was fist making petals for it. I think it finished up really great. I’m loving the layers of petals. This is also the first flower I’ve given a bud.
