Royalty

A L O H A !




“If toast always lands butter-side down,
and cats always land on their feet,
what happens if you strap toast 
on the back of a cat 
and drop it?” 

Stephen Wright










“ Cats are dangerous companions for writers
because cat watching
is a near-perfect method
of writing avoidance. ” 

Dan Greenburg









“ The cat has too much spirit
to have no heart. ” 

Ernest Menaul







“The cat lives alone, has no need of society,
obeys only when she pleases,
pretends to sleep that she may see more clearly,
and scratches everything
on which she can lay her paw.” 

François R. Chateaubriand








“The cat is above all things,
a dramatist.” 

Margaret Benson

I miss Cleo and Sophie - two wonderful cats that were in my life, both gone now. I travel a fair bit, so have elected not to get another pet for now. But I love looking at yours, especially that lying on the back thing. Adorable.

I never understood cat people until my son brought one home. It's taken some time to win me over - because they most certainly aren't dogs - but I have been won.

Greetings,

A cat as procrastination, maybe I should get one as I'm a huge fan. Not of cats, of procrastination. Great pics!

Cat - such a simple 3 letter word for
Baset - the Cat Goddess of Egypt.
Someday Baset & I will find each other and I will do her bidding.

my fingers no longer are reliable on the keyboard.

BASTET!

Our cat disappeared 1 year ago at some point during her 9th life. Now our lives are run exclusively by our dog, Sasha.

Love these shots, and the quotes.

Aloha !

Akannie said...

I have a houseful of cats...and 3 dogs...and an insolent cockatiel who screeches even louder when I tell him to hush.

So, mostly, the cats. Read a sign one day that said: Dogs have masters. Cats have staff."

LOL...aloha, dear girl!

Now there's a conundrum! LOL
