Summer Cat Naps

When it's hot, there's only one thing to do in the afternoon ... nap! The cats have been quite entertaining this past week, seeming to capture the essence of summer in their napping poses. I caught Puffy the other day on the couch, completely abandoned to the summer heat. I have to admit I was a ...

Artistic Garden Cats

The temperatures have been warming up during the day on the Amalfi Coast, but it's still cool enough in the evenings that our long haired cats haven't started shedding their winter coats yet. The other day I opened the window to look for them, and this is what I found directly below the window. I'm ...

Grateful Not Only for the Good Days

Last Thursday I was sitting in the sun in Amalfi and enjoying lunch outdoors overlooking the Marina Grande beach. There were a few brave souls making their way slowly out into the cold water and returning soon enough to lay in the warmth of the sun. Spring is just about to burst open here on the ...

Photo Friday: Il mio gatto arancione

Feeling more than a little homesick for so many things, and one of them is this little orange cat. Please excuse me for shameless promoting Puffy's cuteness for this week's Photo Friday. Wishing you a happy weekend ahead! ...

The Winter Coat

The temperatures have begun to drop on the Amalfi Coast, especially at night with the cold north winds blowing down the valleys along the Lattari Mountains. It's time of year for throwing an extra blanket on the bed and pulling out the heavy winter coats, hats, scarves and gloves. Our cats have been ...

Photo Friday: A Room With a View

  The other morning I didn’t see Puffy as he snuck out of the kitchen while I was cleaning up after breakfast. Instead of finding him in his usual window in the  living room, I found him instead squeezed onto a much smaller windowsill in a nice sunny spot. Smart cat! It’s been a wild ...

Addio Musetto!

    Yesterday was a sad Sunday. Musetto, one of our older garden cats, died unexpectedly. This was a cat that we nicknamed “Survival,” and I think we all thought she was invincible – at least a little bit.  Musetto was about 9 years old and was one of the first kittens of the big ...

A cat’s life on the Amalfi Coast

Last summer you all met Puffy, my sweet, silly orange cat that loves to come into the house and crash during the hot summer days. As the temps have been climbing, he’s found his new favorite spot sleeping in the window. After a long night doing whatever tomboy cats do, this is how you’ll find him ...

This morning I said my goodbyes to Bruno Catalano’s “Travelers” on my morning walk. Tomorrow I’m off to be a traveler myself and they’ll likely be gone by the time I’m back. They’ve been good company, but it’s time for them to move on to their next destination. 🧳

I’m back! After some time in the USA with family I’m back! After some time in the USA with family, I’m back home in Amalfi and adjusting to the time with my usual early morning walks. What’s not usual is that there are so many people out and about now compared to when I left in July. At 7:30am this morning there were already people set up at the beach to get those first sun rays that you can see just hitting the beach. Very clever! The water is so clear and pretty in the morning. I enjoy watching the changes that come throughout the season. This morning there were two guys tossing a football on the beach. That was unexpected! 🏈
