Years ago, Gordon left home, determined to see the world over. Some nights, he drags out his chest of souvenirs, and The Kitties gather around for his endless stories of adventure.
The Kitties protested this week's topic. After all, no kitty is plain. Some were mad, some were snobby, some were sad, some left, and one didn't know what all the fuss was about.
Gordon was immediately inspired by this week's topic. While I can't blame him since I have been just as delirious over Johnny's fantastic new movie and his well-deserved Golden-Globe-winning performance (It's about time!), I told him it would be too gruesome and un-kittylike. But he's proven me wrong again. I don't know where he got the outfit, but he's put the rest of The Kitties in stitches!

The Kitties love visiting their favorite animals at the zoo! The Mother Kitty is partial to polar bears, and Gordon has always had a kinship with the lemurs. Comet, BJ, and Ashes like to have philisophical discussions with the big kitties. Norman, as always, is hungry. And Simon, who has made some new friends, isn't sure when he'll be leaving.
Everyone but Norman picked out his/her own hat for this week's topic. Ashes took the liberty to create one specifically for him. We'll see what he thinks of it when he wakes up from his nap (or if he'll even notice). Comet just finished watching Buster Keaton's ultimate collection on DVD and is a little obsessed. Gordon chose one of Johnny Depp's old knit caps (and is doing his best impression!) And Simon spent all afternoon knitting his own special concoction. They are about ready now to hit the town!
This drawing took me a long time to finish. I told Gordon to stop singing so much because coloring around lyrics is a pain in the butt. He's now writing a Blues song about that.
