Possibly the one and only thread I'll ever do

….about cats

Never had one, and don’t understand them. But visiting a niece who had cats I politely asked about them, since I had heard about her having cats, and that they recently also had babies.

I became enamored with them, and the photos show a real lack of concentration I just loved looking at them and playing with them.
Do NOT tell Dixiegrrrrl. She hounds me with images and jokes about that in her opinion my life will not be complete without a cat.

Hope you like them.

This is the Daddy



Here is the Mom



and now babies. There were 4 of them





the tiger lining made it hard to even distinguish babies from surrounding



I think that's the Mom again

5. I kept thinking

of how that would work in the plane tomorrow, the creature I don't understand under the front seat at my feet.
Sanity prevailed.
DO NOT tell Dixiegrrrl. I would not live it down.

9. I will NOT get involved with cat vs. dog discussions, but will note that...

cats trend to be solitary and dogs tend to be pack animals.

Which only means cats don't rush up to make friends. But once they do accept you, they are amazingly intelligent and affectionate. Ad there is something amazing about a purring cat curled up by you, or on you.

It's just damn difficult to teach them to do tricks, or anything useful.
