The Chairman's letterhead complete with his photo and pawprint.

Dear Humans - WHAT WERE YOU THINKING?!!

It could have been tragic with a terrible outcome. A human butt squashed Eve 2.0...TWICE!!

Seriously humans?

Eve 2.0 cat doll holds a kleenex to her moutn. She is surrounded by her cat doll community.

Eve was sitting on a sofa looking so pretty and a human she'd never met before sat down on her like she didn't even exist.

But first

SHE MADE FUN OF HER

And then she sat on her AGAIN.

We decided to recreate the event so we could all feel Eve's pain with her.

A very large denim butt is lowering itself towards Eve and she puts her paw up to stop it.

Look at this! HORRIBLE. HORRIBLE.

A more detailed look at Eve's ordeal.

The Kreatrix was upset. Eve was upset. EVERYONE was upset. SHEESH! Even Wally has kept his eye on Eve 2.0.

Adorable real life cat, Wally, poses with Eve 2.0

So, we suggested Eve 2.0 list her life manifesto in light of her ordeal...(My idea! I've seen a lot of these manifestos on human blogs...hmmmm....but anyway)

Take it away Eve 2.0!

EvesManifesto

Bravo! Well said Eve. Just remember

You may have gotten sat on twice but you still look good!

Things are getting very interesting around here...

The Kreatrix flat out on her back surrounded by papers, a calculator, a bottle of Advil and the cat doll community.

Lots of little slips of paper with numbers. Lots of cursing.

I have learned the Kreatrix has a bad uncle.

His name is Sam. And every year he asks for some money.

I offered to have a word with him but I was told

“Naw. Everyone has the same Uncle Sam. He’s very large.”

Humans.

Just when I thought they all clock in somewhere around 6 feet (give or take a bit) I learn there’s one of you that’s even bigger.

So.

I googled Uncle Sam.

The I Want You portrait of Uncle Sam that has been used since World War 1.

I see no family resemblance to any human I know other than (possibly) a somewhat angry Santa Claus.

Is Santa a human?

MY LOVE AFFAIR WITH SIMON'S CAT CONTINUES

A photo of the cover of Simon Tofield's book "Simon's Cat vs. The World

Whilst I continue apologizing to the Chairman and soldier on through massive deadlines for clients those-who-shall-not-be-named, I'd like to share with you a short animation from the creator of Simon's Cat.

HOLD THE PHONE!! Did I hear correctly?

TWO TO THREE MONTHS to create ONE animation.

With a staff.

Humph.

And my army of those-who-shall-not-be-named believe I can create massive projects within a few days.

Love you Simon Tofield. You rock and thank you for stating just how long it can take to create work EVEN WHEN USING OUR LOVELY, TECHNOLOGICALLY MARVELOUS COMPUTERS. Mwah!

Fancy lettering that reads "sorry Chairman for betraying you by designing products for dogs!

A very well made box/package containing Doggie Waste bags.

This little booger of a box had to be designed and built from the ground up using very sturdy cardboard. Lots of fun when it comes to using an Xacto blade to cut it out, score it and fold it! Wheeeee! But, sweet Chairman, you should be happy because I had to load up the curse jar with lots o' cash!!

I promised a booty shot of Eve. Well hold your horses.

Extreme closeup of a very colorful and cure cat doll.

We spent some quality time together...just the two of us.

A human hand is reaching in and holding Eve's, the cat doll, paw.

Once I explained that a huge part of the fun of her community is being able to pose them, she said

"Like this?" and she struck a dainty pose indeed.

Eve turns and looks into the camera with her paws at her sides and her legs tucked femininely off to one side.

And here is the reason she's soooo easy to pose.

A photo showing the revised bottom for the cats so that the sit better. Colorful lettering states that this is Eve's New Booty!

Booyah! Ta Da! Mission accomplished!

A dear chaiman note saying this post will provide evidence as to why I couldn't help him with his community building. The dreaded clients are to blame.

Beautiful bird artwork for fancy bar soap packaging.

These attached exhibits are for, well, one of those who shall not be named. They look odd here because they are on their dielines (these are the guides that allow the printer to cut and mount the artwork on a bar soap box).

Very colorful damask designs for bar soap packaging.

Abstract and fun, colorful flora patterns for bar soap boxes.

And here is how the above designs had to be translated to liquid soap labels for a pretty glass bottle.

The pretty bird, floral and damask patterns as applied to a liquid soap glass jar.

BUT WAIT! There's more!

SOHO DOG shampoo labels made for the holiday 2014 market.

That's right...I'm sorry Chairman but the dogs have kept me busy AGAIN.

SOHO Dog Subway Tough hang tag for a dog toy to be displayed on a peg.

And this isn't even everything! There's the matter of the Walgreen's dieline I'm not even going to get into but is filled to the brim with high intrigue involving a cast of tens spanning from China to California to Illinois.

The closing statement saying further evidence will be presented in several days along with a better photo of Eve 2.0's booty.

Our Newest Cat Doll Model, The Eve 2.0

An adorable cat doll sits on a chair with its legs dangling over the edge of the chair.

Adorable cat doll sits on a white sheet. One leg is bent at the knee and she rests her paw on her knee.

Yowza! Check out the new and improved feet!!

Adorable cat doll sits on a white sheet with both legs bent at the knee. Her arms rest comfortably at her sides.

Hi Everyone! It’s me, The Chairman. Eve is very lovely and M.O.D.E.S.T. Seriously. She wouldn’t let me photo her new, improved, beautiful booty that makes it soooo much easier to sit. Kreatrix will submit photos whenever she manages to STOP WORKING FOR THOSE WHO SHALL NOT BE NAMED.

Day after day after day.

NONSTOP.

Even though said people pay her money, I would like to tell them to

“Back off buckos, I have a car that needs finishing and a community that needs building and…”

Uh-oh. Here she comes. Gotta go! Toodles.

Kreatrix here.  The Chairman’s got a point. He sits patiently watching me, IMPLORING me with his gaze while I work. His presence reminds me I have dreams and goals to pursue! And massive deadlines to meet from THOSE WHO SHALL NOT BE NAMED. (hint: clients)

The Chairman just hollered from down the hall

“For heaven’s sake! At lease take a photo of Eve’s new booty. Ya worked hard enough on it!”

Point taken.

Our Newest Cat Doll Model - The Eve 2.0 is Almost Here!

Very colorful and fancy announcement from the Chairman. He invites us to join him next week for the debut of Eve two point oh, the newest member with the bigger booty!

Ginger is  jealous because of the attention I have been paying to Eve 2.0, the newest cat doll (and yes, cat doll is the keyword for the hungry spiderbots)! Whew!

Even though Eve has a nice, firm BIG booty (oh...my!) thus allowing her to sit firmly...I still don't find her as fascinating as Ginger. Okay? Ginger? Are we good?

Ginger has her own letterhead now! She is an adorable soft sculptured cat doll. Her letterhead features beautiful handwriting and a beauty shot of Ginger.

It's Awesome Cats Time!

Hello sugar plums! Ginger here – feline reporter on call.

Things are tense here. You didn't hear this from me! BUT. The Chairman loudly suggested he could search for the meaning of life a whole lot easier if he had his World Dominationmobile.

Woah. Crickets chirped in the silence that followed. The Kreatrix still toils under massive deadlines and firmly told him:

“You, little buddy, need to practice deep breathing.”

Well, he went overboard and passed out. So…Here I Am. TA DA! And I choose Tama, a very cool Japanese cat as our Awesome Cat for this post!

Tama is indeed awesome! In 2007 she was named stationmaster at Kishi Station in Kinowkawa, Wakayama Prefecture, in Japan. She is credited for revitalizing a run-down train line and was responsible for bringing a whopping $10 million (apparently that would buy a lot of tuna) into the local town when tourists flocked to the station to check her out!

Now, at 14 years old, railway officials have decided to introduce a likely successor, a young calico named Nitama. A special ceremony introduced Nitama to the world!

Tama and her successor, Nitama, both dressed in velvet robs and fancy hats.

In the meantime, Tama continues her duties with her new trusty assistant, Nitama.

Tama even has her own really cute train!

Tama's train painted with cartoon images of her on the side.

Enjoy this video of Tama, truly deserving of our Awesome Cats honor!

 

And if you want an extra peek at her train, lookey here:

Finally one of us cat dolls gets control of the mouse!

Look at us. We are meditating! More on that later.

A row of cute, colorful cat dolls sits crossed legged as they meditate.

First order of business are photos from our annual retreat and our class on using Bondo.

Since it’s been soooo long (ahem) I will remind you of  this:

Beaten up child's electric car with potential.

That's right, this is what passes for our World Dominationmobile.

ANYWAY, the CEO and the Prof led the workshop which we held outdoors due to Bondo fumes and my delicate nature with said fumes.

Three cute cat dolls, including the Chairman and CEO, are applying bondo to the hood of the car.

Here I am sanding the Bondo after it dried.

The Chairman sanding away on the dried Bondo.

And since I originally thought the Bondo workshop was going to be learning all about James Bond and how to be ultra sneaky, the Kreatrix put this together.

The Chairman cat doll's head replaces Daniel Craigs on the Movie poster for James Bond 007. The poster reads The Chairman is James Bondo in double oh seven.

Laugh all you want. I look good!

As for us meditating. I was inspired by a comment from our fan Candie on the previous post. She suggested I “ponder the meaning of life” while waiting for the Kreatrix to get around to my stuff.

Have you ever Googled “what is the meaning of life”? WOAH.

I did find this guy with a very long name – His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama.

Photo of His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama.

I decided I like him (Note to self: why is it people who wear robes all the time have so much power? Judges, Priests, Monks, Dalai Lamas...)

Check this out.

The Dalai Lama is riding a ski lift with a group of men in suits.

The Kreatrix and I LOVED this article.  The story about the Dalai Lama riding the ski lift will make you smile AND he has something to say about the meaning of life!

Thank you Candie! This 007 cat doll is going to sit and meditate some more.
