A little while ago, my parents' cat Bridget went missing. As the weeks dragged on, they became extremely worried. My dad devised a way to distract himself: he began to paint Bridget's adventures, imagining her travelling through time and popping up in some of art and music's most iconic scenes.
My cat was gone for 18 months, then he came home weighing only 8 lbs. Don’t lose hope 🤞. Apparently putting their litter box outside can attract a cat.

There's probably enough for a five book series. Even not counting the ones that have somehow vanished.

"31 notes" is rip roaring hilarious. Thank you.
Thanks Serena!
A Bridgeted version ❤️
Love the posters on the wall too (the expression on painted Bridget’s face). And ‘lard-be-gone’ inspired work there, Tom’s dad.
It would probably sell, too
I'm laughing that this post is flagged at my end as adult content 😄
bluesky, more like prudesky

Those are fantastic. Made my evening.
Whistler's Mother is just perfect! 😂
Bloody brilliant!
These need to be a book
They are all so wonderful!
So lovely to see this again. I agree with another poster - it would make a wonderful book!
Wandering Bridget. I follow your mum on The Gram. I enjoy her limo prints and cat travails.

Has Bridget returned? These paintings are lovely
She did! the-villager.ghost.io/the-cat-who-...
This is so lovely! He's very talented and Bridget is so charming!
These are so brilliant. I remember seeing some of them before. They're just great, aren't they?
Love it!

Genius
Really amazing
They would make a fantastic book!
I remember reading this on the other platform and thought it was utterly charming. So glad you have posted it here. Please can it be a book?
So lovely!! I’m glad she returned.
Will you let us know when she returns?
I already did.
Did it turn up again?
These are wonderful, and your dad is very talented ( and creative)
