This is the look of a first time bungy jumper cat. Not exactly the perfect poster cat to represent this sport. I named him Simon and after one jump he has a new found respect for birds.....in fact Simon is now a vegetarian with maybe just a mouse from time to time. No more climbing trees for Simon either....Simon says four paws on ground at ALL times.
I asked my sister, mutnik, what should I do to make Simon look dizzy.....of course she would say DRAW stars and swirls. So to those who were wondering what is above Simon's head......they are stars and swirls!! I still cannot believe mut and I are real sisters. Mudder, I brought lots of trees too in case the lines get long!!!
Thank you for looking.
Hugs to ALL of my sisters!!!

Aw, poor Simon! Looks like bungee jumping scared about seven lives out of him! Love that image and your DP is perfect, especially the way you positioned the text above Simon's head. That's just what he did, fall from the sky!

Oh what a cute little fellow!! I hope he doesn't suffer too many bruises. I love your coloring on Simon, and the wonderful dp. It's also good to see the famous tree - (no snow yet?)

Bwhahaha! This cracks me up! I can so see the swirls and stars! And wouldn't you know that would be your sis's response...duh....swirls and stars! Giggle! I can believe you two are sisters....you have her same sense of humor! Tee hee!
OMG! I love Simon...Con air, don't let the other cats get a look at him! In order to get a good price on bungy jumping lessons, I had to promise a good turn out to Boing! If the other cats get a glimpse of Simon, they might go get in line for the flying lessons! Snort!
This is absolutely precious beyond precious! I love it! Snort!
