Merry Christmas to all from T. Mato & the gang.

Whatever religious or spiritual beliefs you observe, I wish the very best to everyone here at MyOlympus this holiday season!

These pictures were taken two years ago with a borrowed camera. I was between cameras so to speak at the time.

Frannie is a cat I rescued. She started showing up at an office I had but would never let me get near here.

Finally after two weeks of putting food out for her and talking to her for an hour every night, she let me pet her.

To help tame her, I put a little house out for her to sleep in. It took a while to get her to use it but soon she was very proud of it!

I kept looking at the house and thinking it looked like a gift box. So when Christmas came around, I spent $6US at a dollar store and decorated it.

If possible she was even prouder and loved to pose in it.
