Hanging out with Sora in the sun for awhile after lunch. Who wants to go back to work on a lovely Friday afternoon?

Choco’s First Anniversary
I remembered that our beloved Choco passed today, a year ago.
She was a wonderful cat, very intelligent and personable. We mourned for months, and eventually adopted Sora from the SPCA, and she’s filled a void in our hearts.
But Choco was amazing, and we honor her memory, her spirit, and the love that she showered upon us for so many years.
One of my fave shots back in 2004.
The Cat at the Window
Sora now regularly visits my office window in a half-basement. It’s at the perfect height to get a ground view of goings on outside . This was one of Choco’s fave places, too. . .
I Wuvz You With Kizzes, Daddy
Sora the Cat has come a long way since we adopted her as a terrified, untouchable young girl about half a year ago. Love, patience, and trust-building can do wonders. She is now a total love bug.
Keyboard Kat
No get work done, no buy cat food. . . : – )
Kitty Sora Gets Twisted
Sora has been comforting me through my hacking cold. She’s stuck to me, and has grown accustomed to long snoozes in my recliner.
Here she is protesting that she wasn’t ready when I decided I had to get up and get a few things done today.
Nurse Sora Provides Unconditional Love & Purrs
Nurse Sora. I’m certain cats know when we’re sick. Despite my heaving coughing bouts she’s stuck to me all day long and even placed a moratorium on her usually incessant demands for play. Thanks, sweetie…
Sora-Chan Photo Shoot
Between the two of us, Yumi and I shot 110 photos of Sora basking in the sun today. Here are a few of the better ones:
This and following are Yumi’s shots. Great eye!
Streamkeepers Install Dog Posters on Byrne Creek in SE Burnaby
Volunteer streamkeepers make dog posters that the City of Burnaby’s Parks Department gives us permission to zap-strap to trees to remind dogs to stay out of the creek during the salmon spawning season, and until salmon eggs hatch in the spring.
Byrne Creek Streamkeepers volunteers Maho and Yumi have created several whimsical posters that impart the information with humour.
We’ve been doing this so long on Byrne Creek that dog walkers start asking us in the fall when the posters will be up!
They’re also a conversation piece, and we chatted with several walkers about them today.
Office Assistant Getting Noisy
Grumble, meowk, grumble, meowk, grumble. Jeez she’s gotten so talkative!
Hard to get any work done with the critic behind my shoulder.
Will you pay attention if I scratchez the back of your office chair?!
