Beautiful black walls paired with light bedding and colorful details. A recipe for success if there ever was one.

This is more traditional than I usually like, but darn it, it’s just so well done. Blue and yellow are a classic pairing. With the right shades it can be very sophisticated and cheerful at the same time.

I apologize for the radio silence the last couple days. Wednesday was just hella busy and then yesterday I got some bad news that rendered me listless. Remember the cute kitty named P. Kiddy that I adopted a few months ago? He has been diagnosed with diabetes. He also has the Feline Leukemia Virus (which we’ve known from day one) and a nasty sinus infection.

I’ve barely begun to process the implications of this. It’s daunting, but I am enormously blessed to have the world’s best support community in the form of the wonderful people that volunteer at the cat shelter with me. Several of them have diabetic kitties of their own and have reassured me that giving insulin shots becomes an easy routine very quickly. P. Kiddy brings me so much joy. There’s no question in my mind that his life is worth fighting for. Heck, after everything this cat and I have been through together I’m definitely not about to throw my hands up now.

If you have any questions about Feline Leukemia Virus or the shelter I volunteer at, please don’t hesitate to comment below or contact me.
