Lucky Thai Elephants

Oh boy, I hope the weather is as beautiful where you are as it is here!!! I wish I could bottle it up and save it. Unfortunately, I need to sit here on the computer and do prep work for our taxes. Ick. Oh well. I'll feel a lot better once it's done!

We started our weekend cat trapping adventure early this morning. We got 3 so far and will hopefully have 2 more by the end of the day. They are such beautiful, sweet kitties...not feral at all...just neighborhood cast offs :(. It makes me very sad but fortunately, their sweet caretaker provides them with plenty of food and shelter. I'll write more about what happens later.

I finished up a few cake toppers yesterday...several elephants. The ones in the photo below are particularly special. A woman in Australia ordered them. She and her fiance are getting married in Thailand on the beach. They are riding in to the Buddhist ceremony on an elephant! So cool! She requested that their attire match her bridal down and the groom's outfit. The wedding colors are magenta, orange and lime, and she wanted the elephant's trunks up for good luck.

this is so cool! i love your work!
also, i'm so glad that you took the initiative to get those kittehs to the vet, even if it turns out they had owners that have let them go. it breaks my heart to hear about abandoned pets, and i'm ecstatic about your efforts, as i've already mentioned. i've just moved, and there are a couple of sweet little kittehs around here that i've been providing some food, shelter, and comfy bedding for on my back porch. hopefully, after i've been here for more than a week, i'll be able to figure out what needs to be done for them. any tips would be amazing!
