Cat Vomit
When I was away for the holidays, I hired my neighbor AJ (who's 7 years old) to take care of my cats Yaphet and Spike. He gave me this drawing to document the event. To the left side you see Spike, and next to him "cat vomit". The fat one next to the cat food is labeled "Yaphet". Seems he got the names of the cats mixed up because Yaphet is the thin one who smiles, and Spike is the stoic fat one who vomits. In the center you see me with my bags in two of my arms, paying AJ with the third of my arms, leaving my fourth arm free. I am also wearing a rather devilish expression, and some kind of skull-type T-shirt. Next to AJ is "cat chow" which I am assuming was the beginnings of the "cat vomit", and underneath is my tri-level cat tree. To the top right there is a cat labeled "Olive" saying "meeeow!". I don't know this cat, but there are about 50 in my courtyard, so far as I know there may very well be an "Olive" among them. Olive is next to something with the numbers "5:10" that could be a water heater or a bomb. I'll have to consult the artist to find out which.

That's awesome!
I'm currently watching my sister's cats, fish, and frogs while she's away.
One of her cats is 9 months old, the other is 2 years... they run a muk in the appartment chasing each other and destroying stuffed animals.

That's fantastic. Let us know if it was a bomb or not!

Dude, did you get a haircut or is that jet-lag hair? Something is really weird in that courtyard. Evidently, it makes peoples' feet disappear. At least now it'll be easier to get that whole "four hands playing the guitar at once" vibe that Keith Richards talks about going on. :)

I love kids drawings, especially when they're as funny as this! Excellent work

I love that he picks up on your ability to multi-task and allows you extra appendages to keep up. Child-vision is a glorious thing.

Steve, If the bags of money you give away for looking after your cats are really that big, give me a shout next time and I'll happily babysit.

That was just too cute. I have tons of kids' drawings, from my own, of course, and I can usually tell what they were feeling when they did them.. Was this at your place or his?

That's great!!
My one little nephew drew me a picture in my yard a few summers ago. He drew a picture of my dogs and one of then pooping (Ok, it's gross) but funny! I have the drawing hanging on my fridge with other neices and nephews art work.
Do you hang kids art work on your fridge too? Or better yet-maybe that one needs to be framed..lol
