Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

 This week the flashback comes from September 2008 and is called:

To Hunt or Mooch?


While Flynn is jumping around in the grass trying to catch a mouse, I think I will just have a mooch around and see what's about.

It's nice to just get out in the fresh air when the rain stops.

We both really enjoy our walks in the fields.

No, I am not peeing, I am listening because I thought I heard a mousie.

After a nice walk, it's good to sit and look at the view from our fields.

And yes, the grass really is that green. It's been like that all summer because we have had so much rain this year.
2022 update. The fields were certainly not like that this year after the hottest summer on record!

And a Wordless Wednesday from Flynn amongst the crocuses in February 2009.


I am joining Athena the Cat Goddess for Caturday Art.



For Flynn I used Landscape at 60% followed by Scribble at 15%


Eric was Watercolour at 50% and then Delaunay at 40%.

Delightful post! The field looks like a lot of fun to explore and just relax. Mom's catwork is really pretty. Hope Mom and Dad are doing well. Until next time...Jean

The lush fields of the past would be pleasant to walk about in. Like Flynn and the flowers especially.

Ha! Eric read my mind: I was thinking about how green the grass was. You can almost smell it, and feel it under your feet. May it be that green again next summer.

septemeber is the time for the opening... so you can hunt sure ;O)... we had no green grass this year too... and this in a part of the world where it normally rains 365 days per year...

Kea said...

Hmm, that was a tough choice, hunting or mooching! (We thought you meant mooching treats. LOL.)

We love those lush views and hope that next summer they will return.

As always, the artwork is wonderful!

Sweet memories. Nice artwork and thanks for the puzzles!

My Mind's Eye said...

I guess you two had to hunt to Mooch so that was a win win.
I love the first two photos!!! Definitely hunting mode
Hugs Cecilia

Sandee said...

Very sweet memories. When I come here I think of past kitties in my life. Makes me smile.

Thanks for stopping by to say hi! That Flynn was a good jumper. That first photo is that pounce move. Get em' Flynn! And we love that crocus photo. So pretty!

Eastside Cats said...

Oh, I so long to see crocus!
Spring cannot come fast enough, and it's not even technically Winter yet...eeeks!
Lovely memories, and I'm off to puzzle...thanks.

Diana said...

Wonderful memories!
I smile seeing Eric and Flynn - I remember the cats I had over time and - especially - I remember the "ginger" ones (with white). :)
I wish you a nice weekend!

Beautiful pictures and artwork!

messymimi said...

That was a fun day!

CCL Wendy said...

It's always so lovely to see the boys roaming free. Very heartwarming. I must say your art this week is purrticularly stunning. Love Flynn with those crocuses, and Eric front and center in the bountiful grasses. The colours are amazing.

meowmeowmans said...

Wow, the grass was so green that year! Terrific art of Eric - that watercolour effect is wonderful. The photo with Angel Flynn with the crocuses is our favorite, but we love them all. XO

Jen said...

We have some mousers if mice dare to enter. LOL! Great pics and artwork!

Athena Cat Goddess Wise Kitty said...

We bet the grass smelled really nice after the rain.

Great artwork!

pilch92 said...

That was a cute flashback. I like both works of art. Thank you for the puzzles. XO

The J-Cats said...

How lovely to be able to roam around such lovely, lush fields and then come home to a nice, safe, warm place of one's own.
We loved the art, too.

Marvelous Marv said...

Such gorgeous photos! And I thought I lived in paradise on earth! Eric and Flynn sure had a terrific place. Thanks so much for sharing the flashbacks! We had a hot summer, and we whined, but it was not quite as hot has the previous summer. This winter though has been our 3rd cold one in a row (It is a triple dip of La Niña) and an extremely early start. Keep being awesome! Marv and Mom

Marvelous Marv said...

We clicked too soon! We LOVE the Art, Jackie you have a marvelous eye and the puzzles will keep us busy! Thanks so much!

Toffee said...

Two busy boys in their own way! Gorgeous pictures and art.

Mickey's Musings said...

That grass looks so lush and tasty!
Maybe not this year though...darn.
