Cat

I am a biologist that never quite had a connection with animals...only with plants. I had birds when I was a kid, canaries, but the truth is that my poor mom had to take care of them, I didn't even think of a name to give them....and we always had a pond with fish. Animals you don't need to touch. I wonder why I am like this. Luca is the same way, he rather stay away from them, and I can't blame him, it's in his genes. I do love to draw and look at birds, I have a calendar of birds right in front of me to inspire me, and one of these days, I will paint one in that piece of furniture that I started painting some time ago. As for now, I am happy with my new acquisition, a colorful ceramic cat from Mexico. I got it around here so I am not even sure if it's from Mexico but it looks like it. I like when I find little things like this that bring some happiness to my home.

Soy biologa y nunca he tenido una conexion con los animales...solo con las plantas. Tuve pajaritos cuando era pequenha, pero la verdad es que mi pobre madre se ocupaba de ellos, ni siquiera les puse nombres...y siempre tuvimos peces en un estanque. Animales que no hace falta tocarlos. Me pregunto porqeu sere asi. Luca es igual, prefiere estar alejado de ellos, y no me estranha, lo tiene en los genes. Me encanta dibujar pajaritos, tengo un calendario de pajaros en frente mio que me inspira, y uno de estos dias, pintare uno en este mueble que comence a pintar hace mucho tiempo. Por ahora, me alegro de tener mi nueva adquisicion, un gatito muy coloridode ceramica de Mexico. Lo compre por aqui asi que no se si ni siquiera es de Mexico, pero lo parece. Me gusta cuando encuentro cositas asi que alegran mi hogar.
