What's Blooming - October 2007
Hello all,
Here's the latest photo! [Note! Click image for a larger view.]
 This photo makes it look as though everything is green and white ? though fading pink and yellow overwhelms the rest of the garden. I picked this shot since it features my new cat Nimbus ? from the Calgary SPCA, of all places!
I was teaching there in August and met him - full of mats and grunge. We spent two lunchtimes clipping and cleaning him to increase his chances of adoption. It worked: I found I couldn't bear the idea of not having him living in my household. He was so wonderfully tolerant of all we did, so friendly and easy-going. He's a Quebec cat now - after a flight with Westjet cargo - and settling in pretty well, making the most of any opportunity to explore the place and meet the other cats and the dogs. They are still trying to make sense of him, but it looks as though it will be just fine, and he may help my timid cats become a bit more confident. What's blooming at this point are a lot of relationships. May they all bear fruit!
All the best,
Edie Jane
