Inquisitiveness eliminates ignorance -- very wise.  I must remember this when people say "you know what happened to the curious cat . . ."

Thanks for reading this - she followed that caterpillar for about an hour until the novelty wore off.  I was thinking when I saw her how wonderful it would be if we as humans, could be more inquisitive of those we don't understand, and then maybe we would all get along better too.  Wishful thinking - yanno?

Does she look guilty?  Of course she played with it Yeti      
    

         
This is quite the cat actually.  She is a snow spotted Bengal.
Her name is Sheba (after the Queen of Sheba,) and she loves Kit.

Awwwwwwwwwwwww ... I loved the thoughts behind this haiku Sharon, just as much as I loved the pictures of Sheba.

That last picture with her under the lace is absolutely adorable! What a cutie-pie!  Give that little girl a hug for me will ya?  

Loving this Sharon!

This cat is so spoiled!  Shhhh, she's trying to sleep dontca know? Yes that is her foot, at the bottom there!  She stretches right out in my featherbed, and makes herself comfy!

Thank you all again, guess we need an animal forum don't we to brag once in a while too.

Dear Sharon, I love your haiku, it's sooooo wise and of course I love  your pictures.
How our sweetie cats love featherbeds!
And how they love freshly washed things! I just found my Zelda sleeping on the freshly ironed shirts of my husband! She stretched and moaned in total happiness!

Thank you for this moment of joy.
Love, Margherita

What, no haiku replies?
Have to fix that:


Caterpillar crawls
across my cat's attention.
Undivided gaze!


thanks for the idea . . .

Sharon,
Speaking of getting along... I just needed to see you on the boards today. And I get to see who you are sleeping with too! Cool!

If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again.

You people are too much, and yes Larry, you caught me LOL, that is who is the lastest sleeping partner.

I saw this and truly - can't we all just get along like this - if it's different, ask, heck that is why I love ALL food, I asked how to cook it!     Maybe that is the answer, unite through food!  Thank you everyone.  Vote wisely.
