Kitty Pie Update

I told you about the Kitty Pie that I knitted, and I can finally show you pictures. Why so late? Well, it’s because although Pumpkin LOVED the K-Pie before I felted it, she didn’t spend a minute on it AFTER I felted it. Now, whether that was because she didn’t like it felted, or if it was too small, or if it smelled too clean, or if it was simply because summer had finally got here and it was just too warm… I don’t know. It may have been a combination of these things. But the bottom line was that although I had a “before felting” shot of her sleeping on the Kitty Pie I could not get a photo of her sleeping on the felted Kitty Pie.

Here is a “before” photo of Pumpkin sleeping happily on her Pie.















I do know that the summer heat must have had something to do with it (to my relief) because hours after I finally turned on the air conditioner last weekend (Hey, I’m Dutch you-all, and it’s gotta be dang hot for me to turn on the A.C.) there she was, sleeping almost happily on the K-Pie.















I have the Kitty Pie situated on a bench right inside my front door. She honestly sits there on weekday afternoons and waits for me to come home, staring longingly through the window at the squirrels, robins, and chipmunks. You know she’s not waiting for me as much as she is waiting for her supper.

You see here that she is half-in and half-out of the K-Pie. I think she would fit if she would try to, but it was still about 77 degree in my house. Once October comes around again I’ll bet some pie and coffee that she’ll curl up in a pretty bespotted ball and nap all day long!
