You know, there are so many quotes about kitties that sometime not exactly flattering, and I would like to hear some NICE things about us—our gentle spirits, our searching souls, our incredible ability to stay perfectly calm and keep our head when all the insane anthros about us are losing theirs!
(What on earth is mama doing — I was ASLEEP!)
For example, my aunty in California just sent a card with a beautiful Tuxie on the front and inside it said, “It’s really the cat’s house — we just pay the mortgage.” Whatever that is…
Well, of COURSE it’s my house, and who on earth would question that? Not an issue! And if you would like more interesting observations on us kitties, try this.
So you see, there are many opinions about our illustrious type of animal, and okay, most are flattering, but almost every one of them seems self-evident to me. I mean, do we really need to hear that sleeping with cats is one of life’s most beautiful pasttimes? Who on EARTH would dispute that? Hey, try sleeping peacefully with a Jack Russell, haha, or a rat terrier trying to find moles in your bed…
Well, maybe they don’t really do that but still…we are peaceful when we sleep. It’s mama who moves around all night, checking her IPad, writing things down, waking me up!
Probably making sure my mortgage is paid.
Humans only have to know one thing…cats rule. 🙂
Thank you, oh wise Island Kitties. Well-spoken.
Yes, Loulou – we RULE. Oops I’m not a cat, but know to be calm in bed and snuggle. Everybody sleeps better. BUT I climb onto papas back at 5:15 every morning – just like an alarm clock – and demand my kibbles! Waking up to rain today. – maybe will take the ferry to Sirmione tomorrow and stay around the lake by the hotel. LOTS of doggies – all sizes! Lots of them look like me! Wonder how that happened…..?
That makes a lot of sense to me!
I like making sense, haha. It’s so rare.
My kitties wait until I am asleep and then sleep on top of me.
Oh, I sleep on top of mama, that’s for sure, but it’s more a kind of sleeping in the space between knees, to keep warm.
My Capucine walks on me whenever she wants to reach the otherside of the bed. No consideration for my precious old body.
My late cat, Found, used to watch me sleeping. And the moment I opened an eye, he would jump onto my bed and purr, and purr.
Now, Loulou, I have been kind of absent for some time. It was because I was devoting my time and attention to Domino, my darling Cavalier King Charles, who was “very unwell”.
Domino passed away in the early hours of this 1st October and I am so sad.
My consolation is that whilst his first year was hell, the following ten years were bliss.
Still, I am so sad.
Oh, Ralphe, I can think of nothing sadder than losing your sweetie Cavalier King Charles, Domino. We are so sad for you and that it just happened is terrible. I wish so much that we could bring him back…there is little anyone can say to console you, but we are thinking about you today and often, knowing what a terrible blow this is to your life.
And you still have the kitties, yes? But not the same, I know. Condolences from all of us.
Thank you so much
Yes, I still have my kitties Mimi, Capucine and Réglisse as well as my poodle, Charly.
But still, I miss Domino so much.
A special cuddle to Loulou.
Oh, sadness. But 10 sweet years…
