I don't suppose you have a cat print that looks like my buddy?

MarkOnArt,

@randynose Not even close at the moment. Sweet kitty tho!

I will save his photo. I am often adding to my cat art. Some of the others on that link above were similarly done when I didn't already have anything close. So stay tuned! ❤️ 🐱

@MarkOnArt

What about a commissioned print? What would something like that run?

MarkOnArt,

@randynose I've very rarely done actual commissions. Partially it's the pressure, partially it's simply that most of the time people are requesting something I feel like others will want. Especially true with cat art. There's almost certainly another person down the road who will see the same image and it will remind them of their kitty. I know you already purchased prints but I still think your kitty would be a fun subject. I'm working on another request right now but soon! 😃

@MarkOnArt

Not a problem.

I look forward to seeing fresh art from you.

Whether it's a cat or not.

She’s beautiful, contemplating the cosmos!

Yes, she is. - Just like Cupid.

I’m happy you’re making your home more beautiful. 🥰

@TywyllSeren

It's part of the widower morphing process...

I have to make the space more me. More now.
Less her, less of the past.

It's not an easy process.
Guilt creeps in.

@MarkOnArt

TywyllSeren,
@TywyllSeren@spacey.space avatar

@randynose

I am sorry for the painful process; I hope you keep going in a direction that is helpful and healing for you.

@TywyllSeren

The 25th will make it two years since she passed.

I can assure you, I am in a much better mental state than two years ago.

Come on, I have a great therapist. 🐾

@randynose
Good!

MarkOnArt,

@randynose @TywyllSeren My sympathies for your loss but I'm happy to be part of making your space yours. I've never been married but I can empathize a bit. I've been cleaning out things since my father died. I've also started going through my Mom's stuff. She's still living but she won't be coming home again (dementia). Not so much making the space mine but going through decades of their lives as I find the energy.

randynose,
@randynose@fosstodon.org avatar

@MarkOnArt

Mark, I feel for you too.

Grief is a weird thing. It's different for every person. But one thing we all share is the sense of loss. The deeper the bond, the greater the pain. I think.

We've all lost someone whom we've cared about one or the other. I lost a high school friend a few years back, and it hit me in ways I did not expect at all.

But I'm finding my way to work through it.

May your heart stay strong 💪 💔 Mark.

@TywyllSeren

MarkOnArt,

@randynose Yes, the grief varies by the person (both the person feeling it and who was lost). So happy to know you are also working through your loses. Take care!

@TywyllSeren @MarkOnArt

I felt like I need to make some of these walls here more of my own... So I've got this headed this way.

MarkOnArt,

@randynose @TywyllSeren Aww I saw that order this morning! I see the location but not who ordered so thank you for the order and for giving me the chance to say thank you!! ❤️

@randynose@fosstodon.org avatar

@MarkOnArt

Mark, you got lots of cats to choose from..

You got a gray one, I'm going to have to get too..

There's a gorgeous cat that Graces my backyard... His name is Tux.. he's not a house cat, but he's part owner of my backyard.

@TywyllSeren

MarkOnArt,

@randynose @TywyllSeren Aww look at those sweet kitties!

I have 8 because my Mom loved them and they brought her happiness when nothing else did. I love cats but honestly caring for this many would not be my first choice. LOL They range in age from 1.5 to 13.

TywyllSeren,
@TywyllSeren@spacey.space avatar

@MarkOnArt @randynose
Sounds like you inherited some good friends. My son and daughter in law have FIVE.
I won’t mention how many are hanging out with you, I don’t want to give them ideas. 🤭

MarkOnArt,

@TywyllSeren @randynose LOL I really don't recommend this many especially for one person. Their basic needs are met but I know they miss Mom who had more time to take up with them.

TywyllSeren,

@TywyllSeren

Well you can always open up a coffee shop to where people can pet cats.

🤔😆😺

@MarkOnArt

MarkOnArt,

@randynose @TywyllSeren sounds familiar... 😉❤️

@TywyllSeren@spacey.space avatar

@randynose @MarkOnArt

It’s like you two know about this place!!

https://www.tinkerscatcafe.com/

MarkOnArt,

@TywyllSeren @randynose I didn't know about this but now I hope to visit some day! Thanks for that info!

I was thinking of Call Me Kat which was an American version of Miranda Hart's show, Miranda.

https://youtu.be/_8CwMGlZKQc

Recently canceled. 🥺 Miranda did not share the Cat Cafe theme.

randynose,
@randynose@fosstodon.org avatar

@MarkOnArt

Oh, wow I didn't even know that show existed.

@TywyllSeren

MarkOnArt,

@randynose @TywyllSeren I vaguely remember it being advertised but didn't start watching it until this past season. I was re-watching Miranda for the thousandth time and a friend asked if I had watched "Call Me Kat" yet. That was when I found out it was based on Miranda. I think Miranda was better but it wasn't bad

randynose,
@randynose@fosstodon.org avatar

@MarkOnArt

Oh my. Eight of them huh?
That is a lot.
I hope they're fixed.

@TywyllSeren

MarkOnArt,

@randynose @TywyllSeren oh yes! I can't imagine! All of them are former strays.

MarkOnArt,

@randynose @TywyllSeren PS Funny - we had an outdoor kitty about 15 years ago that Mom called Tux. He was GIANT. I think he was the biggest cat I've seen in person. And he was very feral. He let us feed him but not come within touching distance of him ever. I think my two 13 year old cats are probably his kittens. Their mother was feral but we were able to tame them.

randynose,
@randynose@fosstodon.org avatar

@MarkOnArt

Yeah, two of the outside cats I can't get within touching distance.
The other two come up to me to get their ears scratched. And I've tried letting them in the house a few times but they're not interested in sticking around.

@TywyllSeren

MarkOnArt,

@randynose one of our past outside feral cats my father finally managed to tame her. He was determined because she kept having litters of kittens and we couldn't trap her. He started feeding her and sat closer and closer to the dish until she finally tolerated hm touching her. The funny thing was he wasn't a cat person. And he succeeded where Mom had failed. 😂 @TywyllSeren

randynose,
@randynose@fosstodon.org avatar

@MarkOnArt

He saw a challenge and took it on...
Nice.

@TywyllSeren

MarkOnArt,

@randynose Thank you for sharing! ❤️

@TywyllSeren and thank you for the compliment! ❤️
