Girl and cat

Ink cats… Just hanging out with furrends 😻

I came home today to see Moussya sleeping like this on a cat tree 😹 Kitties are fearless sleepers, aren’t they?!

Watching the sunset 😻 Any sunset is beautiful but it becomes even better when you share it with… a cat (even when it’s a snowcat). Cats make everything better, actually 😹

I thought you need to know this! These hanging ceramic decorations (that don’t need to be for Christmas only!) are now at 50% off! Say, you can get a tiny house for only $10!!! And the round ornaments go at $17.50. It’s a great time to get one of these and keep them for the next year or put them on your wall 😻 They come in a special box designed by me. Available in my Etsy shop: https://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/GirlSamAndCatMia?§ion_id=30275989

What I find especially amazing is that in 2023 we collected $150 for Tinykittens to support the important work they do! Thank you for supporting them and also choosing my art to be a part of your holiday season! Thank you for your kindness! 😻💖

This is more on a fairytale side. I just imagined what if snow birds brought snow to us and it wasn’t a mere natural phenomenon… Kitties love having fun in the snow as usual!

At a skating rink… Finally, they started opening skating rinks and the kitties are having so much fun on one of them. What’s your preferred winter activity?

Last year I was lucky to visit Chateau Pierrefonds in Oise, near Paris, France. This castle was featured as Camelot in my favourite show “Merlin” and it felt great to walk around “Camelot”. I’ve been to lots of castles and this one is one of the best! Kitties, apparently, live it too! How many did you spot?

A little bit of winter magic… 🪄 ❄️ 🐈

One thing that I especially love about holidays is people getting together around a table full of deliciousness and amazing conversations and laughter…
What about you?

Happy New Year! I hope 2024 is kind to us and is full of positive moments!

Moving towards 2024 and expecting the year to be better and happier than 2023! Hopefully, it will be a beautiful journey full of amazing memories and exciting experiences!

These kitties are having fun in the snow ❄️ 🐈 🐈‍⬛😺

Stars and planets… 🪐 🌟 🐈‍⬛

Tom was so well prepared for his Christmas party yesterday! How do you find his ugly Christmas sweater? I hope you have been having an amazing time! 😻🎄

Happy holidays to you and your loved ones! May you have a warm and peaceful holiday season! Meowy Christmas and Happy Mew Year!

P.S. There are 24 cats in this picture. Can you find them all?

A quiet winter night! ❄️ 🏠 🐈

A tiny throwback - my 2021 Christmas card collection (most of which were TinyKittens cards)

I love this season so much because everything feels so festive, houses become magical and there’s magic in the air. Did you give any of those cards?

Will that be the last moment of the Christmas ball? Do you put up a Christmas tree? What do your kitties think of them?

Just a cute snowcat 🎄❄️😻

My ceramic kitties are in my Etsy shop! 😻 These lazy desk companions aren’t happy to be doing any work but at least I managed to take pics of them in their natural habitat! https://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/GirlSamAndCatMia?§ion_id=46681232 Please use CAT2020 to get CAD$5 off. If you want to get a Christmas ornament I’ll give you personal off-season discount!
There are so many cool things in my shop! Ceramic cats, Christmas ornaments and a mysterious box collection: you don’t know what you’ll get - a minimum of 3 magnets or two plant stakes until you get your box at home. 😺

Winter days can still be a lot of fun despite all the snow ⛄️😻❄️

UPT: The kitties are up in my Etsy store: https://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/GirlSamAndCatMia?§ion_id=46681232 Please use CAT2020 to get CAD$5 off. Also, please note that all of the figurines feature crackled finish. It’s not your impeccable smooth glossy finish. It’s crackled but cute nonetheless and adds some purrsonality to each kitty. It may be visible from some angles. Also, all the kitties come in cute boxes I designed myself 😻 I also added a mystery box of magnets or plant stakes - it’s a surprise until you get it home 😹

This is what happens when you have super whimsical cat desk companions 😹 It all started as a regular photo session and then they wanted everyone in the photo and got into the drawers and on the keyboard. They were all over the place. Can’t wait to get them adopted. Will be placing them into my Etsy shop soon. They’re all finished now - some have touches of mother-of-pearl and gold and some are plain 😻 All of them have unexpected but cute crackling of the clear glaze that can be visible or not depending on the angle. These guys are just tooooo cute not to smile when you see them 😹

OMG! My ornaments are finished and they have some gold and mother-of pearl. They had to go through 3 firings and have some crackling in their glaze that gives them a vintage and aged look. Please see the last photos to get an idea of what crackling looks like on those pieces. It is visible from some angles and not from others. Even though that crackling wasn’t intended I love them the way they are - perfectly imperfect, cute and each with their own purrsonality.
Each house is CAD$25 and any two houses combined are CAD$40. The roundish/ovarian etc. ornaments are $35 each or CAD$55 for any two combined. They come in a cutest box that I designed myself 😻 It’s full of cats and can be used as a gift box further 😹 Shipping is CAD$15 in Canada and CAD$20 to the USA. They will be festively packed in the cute box (see in the comments) and then in a bigger box for safe shipment.
If there’s something you like and you want to get, you can DM me or comment so that I post it in my Etsy shop. The tiny figurines are coming soon 😻

This lazy cat pyramid is waiting on their third firing! They’re gonna be covered with touches of gold and mother-of-pearl. Not covered with those but touched here and there. If everything goes well on Monday I’ll have all these kitties back all ready to move to the shop 😻

Meet my new ceramic collection: Lazy desk companions. 😻 These are the laziest desk companions ever - while they won’t help you meet the deadline or get that promotion that you’ve always wanted or get good grades at school or even ace that job interview they can still help you… to find your zen, smile, feel a little bit better and accompany you while you’re having that well deserved cup of tea or a mug of coffee (did I mean a pot of coffee but said a mug?!😹). They’ll always be there for you making sure that you remember to be a little bit lazy and not work yourself out till you have a burnout.
These laziest desk companions still agreed to a short photo session but they weren’t happy about it and now I have a desk full of lazy cats that won’t go until someone adopts them to their desk 😹
I’ll be selling them at $35 each + shipping 😻 They’ll be coming your way in pawsome boxes that I designed for these little guys and can make a great gift for any occasion or why not keep one for yourself? Hitting my Etsy shop soon!

Let’s meet in person at the Ukrainian Christmas expo in South Shore this Sunday. I’ll be in St Lambert on Dec 3rd from 10 am to 6 pm selling my Christmas cards, calendars, prints 😻 :) You will be also able to find beautiful gifts from Ukrainian crafters and some delicious Ukrainian food!
