Here is one of the little monster kitties I recently adopted keeping me busy. One of the many things she has taught me over the past week is that everything is a toy. This includes the roll of paper towels I left in her room last night that someone blew up into a million tiny pieces. The actual toy next to her that is supposed to entertain her automatically as it rotates around lasted about 5minutes. It is much more fun when I play with her. I mean, other than filling her water dish (also a toy), her food bowl, and cleaning her cat boxes, that is my purpose, right?

Hopefully, once we get all four cats together in the next week or so, I will have more crafting time, which is what I consider my form of play. Until then, here are my weekly craft links, enjoy.
