October 2005

I delivered a Halloween treat a bit early this year...
In mid-October I received a call from a long time client asking if I knew of any striped kittens that he might give his daughter and son. Less than a week later, a tiny stray black kitten wandered into the yard. After a lot of coaxing, a little bowl of milk, and a short drive, there's one less homeless kitten in Worcester, and two very happy kids in Acton! Pepper, as they named her, made big points by immediately crawling up to their shoulders and giving them both a kiss on the neck and nose! They didn't even care that she wasn't striped...so maybe it was more of a Halloween Trick!

... Happy Halloween to all the ghouls, boys and black cats out there! Debi

As you might remember from one of my previous e-news letters, I am a member of an online stock images community called istockphoto. Aptly called the "designer's dirty little secret" istock is a wonderful resource for very inexpensive, and mostly professional, stock imagery. Images include not only photos and vectors, but also flash templates, preloaders, and some fun animations. In fact you'll see several istockphoto images and effects on my catoliner site... even the running cat, which started out as a animation of a cheetah!

Get in on the fun... As a new promotion, istockphoto is offering you 3 free photo credits when you set up a new account. Just go to their sign-up page at: www.istockphoto.com and enter the code: F4AA1100276465 in the member code section. You could even buy the halloween picture of my cat Taj shown to the left... and still have a credit left over! Now that's a halloween treat!
