Wild Hairs

This is Squeaky, the little feral cat that came to live with us this last winter. We don't know exactly how old she is, close to a year we think, but she's spayed and vaccinated and learning what it's like to eat on a regular basis. She loves our dogs, Mac the Scottie and Emily the Shi-Tzu, and they love her too. One of her favorite places to sleep is in my chair, when I'm working at the computer. She winds herself around me - my own furry fanny pack! - and purrs herself off to dreamland.

The point of all this? Well, her hair has joined the dogs' hair in my knitting. In fact, I just finished felting another purse and found all kinds of stray hairs in it when I brushed it out. It occurs to me that if I keep acquiring animals, I'll never have to buy any Fun Fur again!
