Form a slide I took in July 1983.
My parents cat, a Siamese Seal-Point, he was really lovely. He would have been 4 when this was taken.
View from Seal Point, San Mateo, Northern California
According to Google Map’s calculation, from my photo location to downtown San Francisco, the distance is about 18.8 miles. Of course, if viewed from above the San Francisco Bay directly, it would be shorter than that. On a cloudy day afternoon, this harmony of the seas scenery is a touching sense of sight for me.
Thanks a lot for your visit, wishing you a great and joyful weekend!
I spent a few days with my daughter in Calgary this week and met her newest member of the family, Alphy. Pippin is now a big brother and as you can see in the picture below, the boys get along very well together.
So much fluffy cuteness, I now have 3 reasons to visit Alberta on a regular basis! :))

Seal Point on a foggy morning. I decided to go with a long exposure to smooth out the Ocean and give it a little more of a dreamy effect. I hope you enjoy it!

Florence doesn't venture outside very often as she's a bit of a "scaredy cat" so it's a whole new experience when she sees something for the first time, this was a spider... she ran back inside soon after!
This is the first video I've posted on Flickr, but thought I'd post for Happy Caturday.
So Florence decided that because she didn't like the fact I was paying more attention to Corny (our cornsnake) than her, so she decided to flaunt herself on top of the snake tank, purring away, until she nearly falls off the back, which she has done before. Excuse the funny squeaking noises, no idea what it is, but i have a new phone which seems to be very sensitive!
Happy Caturday everyone!
This is Florence just before she disappeared under the fireplace this morning. She has a habit of clambering under the fire grate then spends 10 minutes meowing her little heart out, one of the few times she makes a noise! Fortunately it is not a real fire and there is only carpet under there. We used to have a hamster (a good 10 years back) and he used to roam around the house and this was his way of getting under the floor boards so we wonder if she can still smell Tigger?
Seal Point at Samuel J Boardman State Park on the southern Oregon coast is but a part of several geological wonders on the Oregon coast. The length of the park is 20 miles along the coast and that means 20 miles of spectacular beauty, coastal headlands, hiking trails and more. Seaside prairies, spectacular vistas, secluded cove beaches, rugged cliffs and forested sea stacks come one after the other at this park.

This is my gorgeous baby Moriarty (named after watching far too much Sherlock Holmes) sitting watching the snow fall.
He is so soppy and affectionate as well as being the most beautiful cat in the whole World, I know I'm slightly bias, but those eyes!
Moriarty is a Ragdoll. I chose the breed Ragdoll because of their laidback temperament, beautiful blue eyes and affectionate behaviour, and he definitely lives up to it.
Here's a bit of info about Ragdolls, for anyone who's interested in the breed.
Ragdolls are large, laid-back, semi longhaired cats with captivating blue eyes. The Ragdoll is a pointed breed, which means that the body is lighter in colour than the points (the face, legs, tail and ears). The Ragdoll cat is carefully bred to produce large affectionate animals in three patterns, two with white (mitted and bi-colour) and one with no white (colourpoint). The ideal Ragdoll is a well-balanced cat, with no extreme features. Neutered males will usually top the scale at 15-20 pounds; females are proportionately smaller and usually weigh between 10-15 pounds at maturity. Ragdolls are slow-maturing, reaching full coat colour at two years, and full size and weight at four.
Ragdoll cats tend to be more interested in humans than some breeds of cats. They are known to run to greet you at the door, follow you from room to room, flop on you, sleep with you, and generally choose to be where you are. Many Ragdolls have been taught to come when called and play fetch. They are gentle cats, and usually play without extending their claws. Ragdolls tend to be floor cats, not jumpers. The Ragdoll's semi long coat is plush and silky, and requires minimal grooming to keep it looking its best. They should be combed with a steel comb on a regular basis to find and remove any loose hair or tangles. Quality coats consist mainly of long, soft guard hairs. Ragdolls, just like all breeds of cats, will shed, usually with the change of seasons. The absence of the thick, dense, insulating undercoats results in reduced shedding and matting. In all, Ragdolls are well behaved, and easy to care for perfect pet for our modern, busy, lifestyles.
Ragdolls were developed in the 1960's by Ann Baker; a breeder in Riverside California. The origin of the Ragdoll breed consisted almost entirely of free-roaming cats. Ann bred Josephine, a domestic longhaired white female that was found running loose in her neighbourhood, to other cats she owned or found. The offspring of this female had unique temperament traits that were very endearing. By selecting individuals with the look, temperament and criteria she wanted for her breeding program, she created the Ragdoll breed.
I gave Flo and prawn to play with, it's the only thing that sends into a mad frenzy. Unfortunately I wasn't able to capture her tossing the prawn into the air but you'll get an idea of how fired up she was with her flattened ears and fierce eyes that she meant business. If you look closely you'll see the mangled prawn on the mat. For some reason though she never eats it!
