My Nova Scotia Cat, Dill... Auntie Lou-ease is back by Weezilou

My Nova Scotia Cat, Dill... Auntie Lou-ease is back

We've got so many wonderful friends up here in Lunenburg, I decided I couldn't play favorites with one before another. Who did come to see us this morning with his daddies, Billy & David, is our dearly loved kitty, DIll. (See http://365daysintheyear.shutterfly.com/586 to see how he came by that name. Pictures there, too, of friends and a bit of the house.)

We keep treats for Dill, and we often find him at our back door. Today he arrived at 11, and finally at 7:30 we carried him back to his home. If a cat can show you how happy he is to see you again, Dill did it today in spades! I hope you like beautiful blue-eyed white cats...you'll be seeing him more than once this summer.

*Love*, as we say around here:-)
Dill looks like one content kitty with you back around. What a cute shot.
May 14th, 2010  
What a precious looking cat, I can't wait to see more of him! Glad you've all arrived safely, and I look forward to your photos from your new surroundings.

I know you've seen Amelia at least once before because she was your sign holder in the "For Louise" project, ;)
May 14th, 2010  
No worries, I'm sure Amelia doesn't mind a momentary canine confusion. :D
May 14th, 2010  
Oh my gosh, I could have sworn I just saw him flex his paw. Really! Ha! He is such a sweetie....he reminds me of my friend's little Hurley that I put up here day before yesterday (without the two little smudge marks on his forehead). So glad you're still gonna get some kitty-lovin' over the next four months. :-)
May 14th, 2010  
What a gorgeous cat. Enjoy!
May 14th, 2010  
An adorable shot, and such a typical cat pose. You've brought out all the different textures in this shot superbly.
May 14th, 2010  
He looks thrilled to see you. Your presence obviously relaxes him.
May 14th, 2010  
I can figure out that Dill is really relaxed knowing you were back. I'm happy that you reach safe to Nova Scotia.
May 14th, 2010  
Adorable.
May 14th, 2010  
What a cutie---nice nap!
May 14th, 2010  
Louise, I Love Dill!!! And Brad's comment above is so funny! :-) If Dill is sleeping so peacefully, it means he fully trusts you and is comfortable around you! Looking forward to seeing more pictures of this white blue-eyed beauty! It must feel great to be back among all your friends and catch up on life in Lunenburg! Thank you for stopping by and leaving a sweet comment on my photo! :-)
May 14th, 2010  
He is such a pretty cat! What a wonderful friend to have come visit!
May 14th, 2010  
Love this photo...and was about to be a smart alec like Brad and say I can tell he is "thrilled" to see you by the way he is zoned out...but Brad beat me to it...sweet kitty though!

Louise and Ken...want you to know I tried to post this reply (see below) on Shutterfly but couldn't...it allowed me to login but it did not seem to want to accept my comment...maybe it will show up later...but in the meantime...here is my comment about "Clark discovering his street!

Re - the photo you posted on Shutterfly with Ken pointing to his sign!
Love, love, love it...and of course we *know* Clark deserves his own street, but knowing him, he'd probably just say, " Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn!"
May 14th, 2010  
yes, as I read Brad's comment, I was laughing and laughing...not "LOL", but *really* out loud!
May 14th, 2010  
Karen...Brad...you guys are cracking me up tonight! No wonder I just love you all!
May 14th, 2010  
@Louise - the Irish Pub is in the Andersonville/Ravenswood neighborhood. You'll have to check it out on your next trip through town!
May 14th, 2010  
what was kittie dreaming of? i'm wondering.... =)
May 14th, 2010  
Treats...The little crunchy snacks...He knows I'm a push over and always keep a jar handy for him... http://365daysintheyear.shutterfly.com/590

IB - International Bacelaueate - another form of advanced placement classes, only each class lasts two years! It's possible to "cherry pick" but the diploma candidates take a full course of IB classes, so she's in the throes of exams right now.
May 14th, 2010  
Great shot odf Dill - glad to meet your NS kitty!
May 14th, 2010  
That is one contented kitty in a rather fab chair! Glad you have arrived safely and looking forward to meeting some of your neighbors. Say "hi" to B for me! Hopefully I will have another batch of Tahoe magic to share soon. =) *hugs*
May 14th, 2010

May 14th, 2010  
Louise, where do you find the time!! Not only posting up pictures but keeping in touch with us all! Thanks for taking time out to even look at my pheasant's egg. And yes, they are very common in this part of the world, not only in the fields but in the garden.
Sounds like you are already 'at home' :-)
May 14th, 2010  
Oh, what a sweet shot!
May 14th, 2010

May 14th, 2010  
He looks so peaceful. What a cutie!
May 14th, 2010  
So sweet. Great capture.
May 14th, 2010  
What a beautiful kitty...looks so sweet atop the patterned cushion....I guess he sure is glad to see you
May 14th, 2010  
It seems like you have arrived safely :) and with a nice warm, white welcome. Have a great weekend Louise!
May 14th, 2010  
the white cat looks very beautiful on a multi-coloured couch, this is such a great capture, louise! thanks for your note about florence n., i must always remember her meaningful and fruitful life to inspire me in what i do.
May 14th, 2010  
I think Dill has decided he is going to summer at your home, perhaps you should stop carrying him back! You'll ruin his summer plans! ; ]
May 14th, 2010  
I forwarded your note, Jojo, to B&D... In actuality, I may be spoiling *their* summer plans...they keep trying to give me a litter box for him, and they already stocked me up with food and treats!
May 14th, 2010  
Good to see you back again.... and yes.... the statue is in an open plaza in Belfast near one of the main railway/bus stations.
May 14th, 2010  
Glad to see you've settled in nice and easy.
May 15th, 2010  
Oh my, Dill looks like one happy cat :)
May 15th, 2010  
He looks so happy to have you back :-) I'm glad you guys made it there safe and sound
May 15th, 2010  
Oh my gosh, what a gorgeous kitty pic. He just looks so relaxed :)
May 15th, 2010  
omg! this is hilarious! looks like antie Lou spoiled the crap of him already :)) btw, sue forward that "magazing photo" to us, i was cracking up! thanks for sharing! :)
May 15th, 2010  
OMG....your comment screen is longer than the trail for a shooting star, Louise! When did you add Ken to your profile title? I love that you did this!
May 15th, 2010  
OHMY! I saw the picture and this cat's name of Dill. And I thought to myself...Hmmm is it because of my most favorite book? And YES IT IS! I LOVE THIS BOOK! That's such a perfect name for this lovely creature! hahaha. I really learned about people and accepting each other for their differences. It's so good to walk around in other people's shoes! :)
May 15th, 2010  
This picture makes me miss my kitty. We had to give her away when we moved. Luckily we found someone who already had a few playmates for her and lots of acres with birds and such to look at.

Beautiful picture. He is so handsome. Hey Louise I didn't realize you were headed to the east coast. Welcome! I love Novia Scotia and hope to get up there for a visit this fall. My family used to spend a couple of weeks on Prince Edwards Isle every summer when we were kids. Beautiful up there. Glad you made it safely!
May 15th, 2010

May 15th, 2010  
Zonked. Out. What a great picture. So many things to like about it: the framing, the colors, the subject matter. This almost makes me want to get a cat. Almost.

Oh pretty kitty! So cute! Sorry I've been outta touch awhile, Louise. I got to read Ellen's email about your NS connection. Love it... great stories & what a bunch of wonderful experiences in so many places! Things have been busy so I've been posting, but barely. Anyway, looks like you're having a wonderful time up there and what a beautiful place!

February 4th, 2011  
Makes me sad all over again to see this sweet picture and read your loving words.
September 24th, 2011  
@allie912 Poignant for me to read this again as well. But as I scroll through the many comments, I see how many people we once knew here who've moved on and left 365 behind...
September 24th, 2011  
aw, Dill!
