My human’s boyfriend is off doing shows back east again. It took him so long to pack that I started to use his suitcase as a cat bed.
You may wonder why I look so annoyed in this photo, since he is pretty useless to me anyway — after all, he is the one who forgets to keep an eye on my dinner and lets Binga steal it. And he is also the reason the dog is here… actually, I am annoyed because he is not taking the dog with him.
My human, in a misguided attempt at art photography, decided to take a portrait of me while I was sitting there. She was going to call it “Still Life With Cat and Hat.” Might have worked if she had decluttered the background.

Sparkle, any image with you in it is already a work of art!
Ah, Daisy had the purrfect response! 🙂
WE have to agree with Daisy. We just love the expression on your face. It is the best. Take care and all of you have a great day.
Well, at least she didn’t try to make it Still Life with Cat Wearing Hat…
That is part of why I looked so grouchy… it was a warning…
You look a little (or rather a lot if we’re truthful) peeved with the scenic background to your beautiful portrait picture Sparkle.
Daisy is right Sparkle,if you are in the picture it is beautiful no matter what else is there.
You mean there was something else in the picture? All we saw was YOU!

You DO look grumpy…
We hope you will have a really good weekend in spite of the fact that he didn’t take the dog with him!!!!!!!!!!
Sparkle, maybe while the boyfriend is travelling you can send his dog on a vacation too?
Please tell your Mom that we like that she drew whiskers and frootbats on the generic avatar snowman! We love that she personalized it for cats. We just didn’t like looking like everyother cat who commented on your blog. We puzzled and puzzled over it until we found out a Gravatar was what we needed. Have a good weekend!
I’m glad you figured out the gravatar thing… and yours is very cool!
I believe the look of total disdain on your face says it all!
Sparkle, isn’t it good news when you human’s boyfriend leaves because that’s more space for you on the warm, comfy bed! We think any photo of you is a great work of art!
Sparkle you look SO TINY! No wonder your human is always bothering you to eat more!
Not only am I small, that suitcase is HUGE! So I look extra-small here.
I think we all agree with Daisy!!! You weren’t kidding, he’s all over the place on that tour!
Sparkle, you look like you HAVE a hat on…your annoyed airplane ears are so expressive. As for the clutter; that’s what Photshop is for.
You do look annoyed! Us kittehs have to go through so much.
Great pic, I love it! 🙂
Just think – some good quiet time with your mom!
Sparkle, be very thankful your human didn’t try to put the hat on you or you in it! MOL!
Wow, a Bein what doesnt protect yer food from a woofie (an brings it in the place ta begin with)… We’re thinkin peein in the suitcase (blaming the woofie), an goin ta match.com fer a better Mom-boyfriend!
Hahaha ! keep the suitcase bed it looks so comfy and kick the man and dog out.
What a pity that your female servant messed up the still life ! “Cat with a hat” is a wonderful title !
Sparkle – we would call that look P.O.’d. Seems you do everything very well! Send the dog outside and have a calm quiet day.
You certainly look annoyed – such an expressive face!
Have you really been blogging since 2003?
While the human is away, you can try selling his dog. Just mieowing…..nothing purrsonal against the woofie.
Yes, I have been online for eight years, when I was just six months old – my first posts are about my arrival at my human’s.
Too bad that ‘bed’ is going–it the color goes good with your fur!
And don’t be too hard on your human and the declutter. Our house looks like that too. Tommy says it’s cuz she’s a creative sort and creative sorts don’t have time to sort thru junk and stuff.
Sure.

Oh no, your human uses that excuse too? Poor us.
