He sat beaming – eyes a gleaming

Drawing me in, can’t help staring
Dear God, how long has it been?

Lapin Agile is French for "Nimble Rabbit". There are many references to rabbits and moons - one that caught my attention is the story of Buddha disguising himself as a rabbit and sacrificing himself in fire to the god Indra. Buddha is rewarded with eternal life as the moon. Also the name of a play by Steve Martin. Einstein theory embedded at bottom.

Rescue Cat Series - Valimar was a rescue from a hotel hoarding situation. Sadly, he was mistakenly euthanized.

Rescue Cat Series - Darci was the first in the series. She had such a cute face! She was adopted to a great home!

Rescue Cat Series - She was adopted by a woman who runs one of our dog rescue groups. She had the most beautiful china doll face.

Rescue Cat Series - Parker was found in Santa Fe and part of the Felines & Friends group. I fostered him for quite a while. He is an old skinny guy.

Rescue Cat Series - Tiki was a cute girl. I wanted to try alternative coloring on this one.

Rescue Cat Series - Zig Zag was a big fluffy yellow tabby in the shelter. One of my favorite faces. He was adopted to a great home!

Rescue Cat Series - Yahtzee would stand up and paw at the glass door of his kennel - like a dog. He was adopted to a great home!
