A Cat A Day: 341/365

Hello friends. I am running a day behind as a consequence of tiredness, boredom and general bad-temper. However, my iPhone 4S has arrived at last and here is a festive pic of Rosie and John’s tummy. The tv programme is Rev, which I highly recommend if you haven’t seen it.

Well, I have never seen this before; Rosie likes garlic bread. Cats have far fewer taste buds than dogs or humans, but I would have imagined the smell would put her off. Nope. Not at all.

Stop Press! My friend Dominic has informed me that garlic is poisonous to cats. Rosie is still alive; we’ll see how she looks tomorrow.

Willow’s heart-shaped nose-pad. With 30 posts left to do, boredom has struck me at last. I will finish my 365 Project, but be glad to reach the end. I have enough sources of pressure and guilt without adding an unnecessary, artificial one to the burden.

 

Is this 4am insomnia talking? … Probably.

Cats may not be our servants
or our defenders,
but give us life.
Lying softly in laps, tuning their
heartbeats to our own,
singing away sorrow,
erasing the mind,
unravelling the day.
Sharing the empty dark.
Like flowers, inexhaustible in beauty.
Like flowers, most necessary –
in ways we scarcely understand.
Healers, Companions,
Mysteries.

Thank you again to Emilie Burguin for the French cat pictures. I’m very tired and it’s great to have lots of lovely photos in my computer’s memory to choose from.

Today’s photograph shows Zaza and Mickette enjoying a sneaky snooze on a bed at Easter time in France earlier this year. I wonder which one is which?
