Three little Kittens
Click on the photos to enlarge .The third kitten is a bit shy and refuses to pose for the camera!Dogs and children for some reason, gravitate towards me! I’m really good with both. I can spend hours in the company of dogs or children, without getting bored.
I’m not a cat person. I don’t hate them either, like some people do. Then again, I love most animals and since childhood, I’ve always had a variety of pets, ranging from a rescued bird that couldn’t fly, hamsters, fishes, a rescued kitten, a rescued squirrel, and dogs. I was forever, bringing home, one kind of animal or the other. In one of the places that I lived in, my house was next to a Blue Cross shelter. I was a familiar figure there.
Now, these three kittens and their mother have clawed their way into my life, with their cuteness ,charm, cunningness and antics. I have a patio that leads into the garden, and there is a rocking chair there, where I usually read my morning newspaper. The kittens have now discovered the joy of rocking! I laughed when I saw the bewildered expressions when they first climbed on it. And now,by Jove, they rock!
Not surprisingly I like cats, but then I pretty much am an animal lover! I have also had various pets in my life - fish, injured birds, budgerigars, rabbits, dogs, cats, hamsters and such like. Of course, at the moment I have a dear old cat named Bob who is 17 years old and outside of my realtives is the longest relationship I have had in my life so far!
ReplyDeleteThose kittens are so cute. I love the way the last one is popping up behind the chair adn the picture of the two with the bowl is fantastic!
Bob-Kat: No wonder, we both have the same seduction style! Animal lovers --Hunters in seduction :-)Freud would have a field day on analysing this connection!!
ReplyDeleteBTW,I showed my daughter your blog (The absolutely marvellous photos,I had to share) She wanted to know if you were really a cat, and whether cats could write!! (I laughed so much) Of course,later when I thought about it,I realised that in all the childrens story books, animals do talk.And she has seen my blog, and seen my photo on the right side.So she presumed that whoever writes the blog will have their picture displayed! Will tell her about your cat, Bob.

Sweeties!
ReplyDeleteI can spend long periods of time watching animals interact too. Even this afternoon, I went to visit my "borrowed cats" and I laughed so much at their behaviour. I can't say the same for children. Well, it depends on whether they're well-behaved or lunatic, but most of the ones I know are insane...:=)
nice pics..
ReplyDeleteAw, so falttered that you showed your daughter my blog and it is so cute (and so natural) that she assumed I am a cat.
ReplyDeleteI borrowed my cats name when I first started blogging as I had no idea what to expect from the virtual world and wanted to keep my anonymity. I kind of like being a cat :-)
Freud would have a field day with the hunter / animal lover thing wouldn't he? LOL!!
Aw, too cute! Who can resist kittens?!! So sad that they have to grow into cats and become all aloof and indifferent. Oh wait, that's me, no, kittens will be fine, not to worry. :)
ReplyDeleteI had a cat who sadly died in 2003..she was 17 years old. I love cats!..in fact this has been the longest I've lived without a cat all my life. My daughter Annie would love a cat..so this year I plan to find another!!
ReplyDeleteOver the years there has been: Sammy, Winky, Tiggy, Beauty, Moses and Zippy, Baggins, Misty, Smeagol and finally Dusty. Cats names are fantastic!..isn't that right..er..Bob?
Absolutely adorable.
