Birdroom art

Luciana drew this picture last night while we were in the birdroom. The bunny featured front and center is Scraps, holding a carrot. Scraps has a little fluffy pouch under her chin, which Luciana captured nicely. She is also white on the front half of her body and black on the back half, as shown here. Standing on Scraps' head is Tooky, our lovebird. Notice the detail L. captured in showing Tooky's right leg and foot, which grows sideways and twisted. In the upper lefthand corner is the window which looks into our birdroom from our living room. Hallie, our cat, is looking in the window watching everyone. She does this quite frequently, as do many of the cats, and she was peeking in while L. was drawing this picture. From there, we leave the reality-based portion of the picture and head into the creative license that the artist took. We do have a tree in the birdroom, but it doesn't look like this tree. L. has really gotten into drawing evergreens lately and is enamored with the way they look. She also added a waterfall. She works these into most of her pictures, and while I wish we had one in the birdroom, we do not. Then if you look carefully, right above Touky, she added Thumper to the picture. She didn't have a gray colored pencil, so she used blue. She also gave Thumper wings--not sure why.

I was at my parents for the evening, having our final consultation with Dr. Krebsbach, the cat behaviorist. She was quite pleased with the amazing progress Emmy and Camille have made. My parents will continue their hard work to keep the girls moving in the right direction. We are all so happy with how well the cats are doing. If you have any cat behavior issues, I would highly recommend Dr. Susan Krebsbach of Creature Counseling.
