Distracted by a handfull of fur with an attitude.

You know how it goes. You're reaaally busy and then, exactly at the most insane moment, something unusual happens that completely screws you all up? Well,...

This little fella had been hiding in various basements & scatting around the Zaagmolenstraat where i live for about 3 days and crying bloody murder. Many people had tried to grab him but to no avail till, last Monday. We were on our way to do a Ukulele Workshop for Seniors and suddenly he came out and i was able to grab him. Of course this meant 3 days of dealing with the cute little trouble maker. (I rescue the little dude and then he pulls a bad attitude on me. Click on the photo to enlarge and fully experience the bad ass kitty attitude) He's now safe and awaiting a new home which i was assured he would soon find. All is well that ends well, right?

Well not exactly. It's the strangest thing. When i grabbed him up and brought him into the house with him against my chest, i instantly got a terrible pain in my throat. I could hardly swallow suddenly. My only guess is that he had been under those damp houses so long and was breathing out lots of mildew and mold or something. Anyway, i'm still trying to get over it. Lots of posting to catch up on...The Workshops are going wonderfully & The Ukulele Jamboree was absolutely mad. Sure hope i got some decent video's on my crappy camera. Hopefully we'll find out soon. Stay Tuned!
