I Love Cats



But I couldn't eat a whole one.

(JOKE! Just a joke, I promise.)

I really am fond of cats as friends. I was neglected a fair bit in my early life- before Tim and Mandy got me from the RSPCA- but I did live with a cat and we got on well. I got on better with the cat than the other dog. These days I get to socialise with people and dogs a lot but not with cats. Today, I was calm on the lead saying hello to this one. Often, when I see a cat, I, as Tim and Mandy put it, I "go bananas." To the observer and possibly the cat, it may appear that I might want to attack the cat but nothing could be further from the truth. I am desperate to say g'day and play with the cat. I only want to make a new friend. So remember; things aren't always as they seem. Someone who you perceive to be your foe could really be your friend.

Some people and dogs are anti-cats or "don't get" cats. They are different from us but that doesn't mean we can't share a lot with them. Just look at the adorable Miss Kitty. We don't have to be a person-dog or a cat-dog, we can enjoy the company of all animals. I found a nice water-dragon lizard to play with on the walk this morning. I think I might have scared him a bit as he ran off and hid. Occasionally, I am misunderstood.

Life is great when you enjoy all creatures great and small.

Aww... Miss Kitty would blush if she could. :-)

Cats are like people...OK....cats are people. Love'em as you find them and don't try to make them do what you want to do. And then everything is just fine.

I would do the same thing...be excited and only want to play but probably scare the poor kitty away.

Kisses,

Ok, we're going to get Gus to come and read this! He doesn't understand that we only want to play with him....and maybe taste him, just a little bit...ha, just kidding!

Good to see you're all cat lovers.

I think I would like a cat that lived with me, but sometimes outside cats can be scary.
