An orange cat named Ziggy whose snout and whiskers are just visible has his paw curled up with the little pink pads facing us in the cutest way. But his demands are real.

If Christmas is meant to pause everything, why do searches for what’s open spike every year?

On the fifth day of #Christmas my true love gave to me... the commemoration of a man who should probably be the patron saint of England: Saint Thomas of Canterbury.

Robin in a holly bush is a hand painted watercolour painting in landscape format painted by the artist Karen Kaspar. A robin sits on a branch in a holly bush and looks to the right. It is surrounded by green leaves and red berries. The background is painted with loose brushstrokes in different shades of green, which form a strong colour contrast to the red winter berries of the bush and the red-orange breast feathers of the bird. The Ilex is also called Holly or Christmas Holly. The evergreen branches with the red fruits are often used for Christmas decorations.
The painting is also available in a square format and cropped to portrait format in my shop. Choose for yourself which format fits best in your rooms.
Here I added the text Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year as Christmas card design for your seasonal greetings.

Director George Kuchar reads a newspaper. Front page headline: WITCHES ARE TRYING TO STEAL MY CHILD

To his right a jolly Coca-Cola Santa, above him a kitschy painting of I assume Veronice, holding up a cloth with the face of Jeebus. To his left a small bookcase with toy figurines of Donald Duck and Popeye. A gypsum mermaid and a fake crab complete the scene.

A cute black and white kitten sits in the snow wearing a red Santa hat with a white bobble. A red Christmas ornament lies next to it. The background is created in soft blue tones as an abstract winter landscape. Snowflakes trickle gently from the sky and spread a wintery atmosphere. The little Tuxedo cat with green eyes is smiling and looking forward to Christmas.
The bright red Christmas baubles and the Santa hat adds a festive touch to the scene.

It's the time of year where a lot of people are thinking about buying PRESENTS for the humans in their lives.

Für alle Katzenliebhaber und Romantiker!

Zwei Katzen treffen sich unter einem Mistelzweig

Zwei Katzen, deren Silhouetten erkennbar sind, sitzen nebeneinander im Schnee unter einem kahlen mit Schnee bedeckten Ast. An diesem Ast hängen
grüne Mistelzweige, die mit einer roten Schleife zusammengebunden sind. Sanft fallen Schneeflocken vom Himmel und verbreiten winterliche Stimmung.
Als immergrüne Pflanze, die im Winter blüht, symbolisiert die Mistel Leben und Hoffnung.
In der Weihnachtszeit symbolisiert der Brauch, sich unter dem Mistelzweig zu küssen, Glück und ewige Liebe.
Zwei Katzen treffen sich unter einem Mistelzweig ist ein Aquarellgemälde im Hochformat handgemalt von der Künstlerin Karen Kaspar.
