I Will Always Walk With You Animal Sympathy Card

I Will Always Walk With You Animal Sympathy Card

Text reads: I will always walk with you. If you live with and rescue a lot of cats, you end up with a fair number of losses. I received sympathy cards from many people, and we all remarked on the lack of animal-themed, especially cat-themed, sympathy cards. For years I’d dreamed of creating my own […]

I’ll Always Remember the Way You Looked at Me

"I'll always remember the way you looked at me."

Namir turns his gaze up to me, enchanting me with his “bedroom eyes” as we spent a morning in the garden. To visitors and to me, once he was sure he had you under his spell he turned on those famous bedroom eyes, narrowing them just enough so they looked mysteriously slanted and angling up […]
