Colouring with Cats #16 ~ Getting Your OM on with Mandalas on Mondays! PLUS Free Colouring Book & Gemstone Bracelet Give-Away!


Supurr Monday greetings beautiful furiends

We hope mew've had a pawesome weekend and didn't get too excited with the souper-bowl yesterday if mew're stateside.  Here's to feeling all calm and nicely chilled fur the next few days, but if mew're not we know we can assist mew in getting your Zen Harmonies happening and that fuzzy feeling of zen-ness back.

 Let's begin with our little breathing exercise, we're sure mew know what to do but if mew've furgotten: purrlease take deep fulfilling breaths; counting to five on the inhale and five on the exhale:

Breathe in
Breathe out

Breathe in
Breathe out

Breathe in
Breathe out

Just let it all go, find that place of serenity and close your eyes and imagine mew're floating on a big, soft, fluffy-white cloud drifting through a blue sky.  Feel the gentle warm breeze ruffle your fur and let the delicious rays of the sunbathe mew in a golden glow of warmth.  Hear the birds singing and just see where your mind takes mew.  Don't fight it just let it happen...

Five minutes of this and mew'll feel as fresh as a daisy.



Guys, I was taken back to the vet on Friday as I've been vomiting again and we learned that I've lost the 200 grams that I'd put on last month.   So I was given some anti-nausea meds to be squirted on my food 3 x a day and I'm under close observation right now so paws crossed I'll start to feel a bit better in a couple of days, and then the vet is going to give me some of this special paste to help build me up.

The P.A. says I need to get a kilo on asap. Got any ideas?

All the mandala's featured are designed and made by us, unless otherwise stated.



So without further ado here's this weeks Mandala:

Just right-click the image to save and print it...

  7. I really like the center of this mandala! I'm impressed that your Mum uses such a variety of color ... without realizing it, I lean toward the same colors every time. We hope you feel better soon, Basil ... it makes us sad to hear what you're going through. Bear Cat loves the knitted kitty ... he carries it around with him ... it's adorable though I haven't gotten a good picture yet. When he walks, he kind of hides it a little bit, he's got a great treasure :)

    1. Hiya Momma Kat & Bear, the P.A. loves pinks, reds and blues, so we have to make sure that each week she uses a new colour palette otherwise they'd all look the same! MOL And we're so happy that Bear loves the Knitted Kitty, they are fab, and the P.A. has some fun things planned to showcase soon with the lady who knits the kitties, it'll be really fun! MOL XOX

  9. Oh Basil, we're so sorry to hear you've been ill again. We're sendin' lots of purrayers. Now as to dat weight gain thing, mommy says altho' she hates it, she gave sis Lexi some kibble to eat on occasion. 'Pawrently, dat stuff'f fattenin'. Back when she was just a little kitty girl and needed to gain weight to be spayed, mommy gave her french fries and pizza. Again, 'pawrently it's fattenin'. We also recommend Gerber's ham only baby food. It's really tasty and is also 'pawrently fattenin'. Fried or baked chicken skin is also good and yet again, is 'pawrently fattenin'. We do hope you find somethin' to fatten you up. Big hugs fur all. Oh and of course mommy would luv to win da give away.

    Luv ya
