Wonderful, wonderful old pillow, with so many memories in every stitch...love it!
You and I and our strays...I catch a glimpse of my lil' feral soul every once in a while, but another adult cat has come around to share goodies...Scratchy the terrorist terrier is going INSANE...I sure hope she doesn't push the door open, she's famous for that.
Have a safe holiday!
Wow! What a treasure to have in your family. Thanks for sharing!!
