In ancient times cats were worshipped as gods; they have not forgotten this.
Terry Pratchett
Hay(na)ku: kneel, servant
My
Shrine is
wherever I am
A
Self-cleaning
Constantly preening
Self-serving
Butt hole observing
God
The oldest cat in recorded history was Creme Puff, who lived in Texas, for 38 years and 3 days.
From what
I’ve heard
creme puffs
in Texas
Don’t normally
live so long
Although a group of kittens are more commonly known as a litter, they can also be called a “kindle” of kittens.
Sure, it is a cute kindle
Very fluffy
But…
What?
How many cats are in there?
Really?
Ummm… that’s impressive.
Tell me
Is there any way to stop all that bleeding?
The exsibilation
From an audience of cat lovers
who weren’t fans of that last joke
Sound much like
the litter of angry cats
That had been pressed
Into that very same kindle
Word of the Day:
Exsibilation:
The collective hisses of a disapproving audience
Happy International Cat Day!
Apology and Disclaimer:
As a cat lover, and owner, I am sorry. I did what the material told me to do.
No cats were harmed during the writing of this post.

Mouse, well done. Should we consider you (as Mouse) an enemy or at least a non-fan of the feline? I agree with you that cats still expect to be worshiped. I love the phrase that dogs have masters, cats have staff.

I am laughing at your feline humor. Why do I like cats ? I like cats because I am afraid NOT to like cats.

Hey Magi!
Did you have to fly to get to that?
Never tried cat before. I think I work with a few guys who have. I’ll have to ask them for a few recipes.

Hey Murdoch ! Yes, I had to fly to California. It was the first time I returned to the USA in 5 1/2 years.
Being back in the USA was VERY strange. I went to see some old friends and say goodbye because I doubt that I will ever see most of them again. Emotions all over the map. It was fun but difficult. I just turned 68 years old in September and I was SHOCKED at how many people in my school have already departed for the next level. I try to think positive about it and keep faith in Our Creator of the Universe. Above my pay-grade !! I was glad I took the time to go. It was on my BUCKET LIST.
DO YOU KNOW WHAT ” THE BUCKET LIST ” IS ?? IT IS THE THINGS THAT WE NEED TO DO FOR CLOSURE SO THAT OUR NEXT LEVEL OF CONSCIOUSNESS WILL “HOPEFULLY” HELP US TO BE AT PEACE WITH OURSELVES , FAMILY AND FRIENDS AND OUR CREATOR.
MURDOCH, HAVE YOU EVER LOOKED AT MY BLOG ? I DON’T REMEMBER. I LIKE YOUR BLOG BETTER THAN I LIKE MY BLOG. TAKE IT AS A COMPLIMENT. I LIKE THE WAY YOU THINK !
I PLAN ON KEEPING MY PROMISE TO VISIT YOU IF I CAN. THAT IS UP TO OUR BIG BOSS.
NOT ME ! Hope you and family are happy and healthy. THE MOST IMPORTANT !
LOVE YOU MURDOCH !
YOUR FRIEND, MARC MOUSE aka WHITE HORSE in Chinese Astrology. 9/25/1954
However, I have been called other names. ( NONE OF THEM ARE FIT FOR YOUR BLOG !!)
You just keep being you Murdoch and I will keep being me ! We don’t have a choice anyway !!
I wish you and your friends and family, AND FINLAND joy, peace and happiness !!
