Cute Photos Of Cats....


As bloggers well know, when all else fails and you don't have anything really worth writing about, pull out shots of your cat doing something cute. Or unusual.

Wally Jr. really does like to hang out next to the shower when it is in use. He'll even walk inside afterwards while the floor is still wet. Of course, I've never turned it on while he is in there. Really, I haven't. That just would not be right. Plus, cats find ways to get even.

A shower is a human thing and not something a cat would use. They don't like water. They prefer to avoid water. That is, if it might get them wet.


Mine has learned that water is available even when I am not at home.
Hmmm...maybe I can get rid of the litter box?

"I'm not from around here..."

Two years ago, after I had retired and was in the midst of a 30-day Amtrak North America Rail Pass excursion, I was in Montreal sightseeing and about to enter the Catholic Basilica to look around.

A tv newsman with a microphone in his hand caught my arm and said something about "what's your opinion on the election?"

I looked back and saw his cameraman was rolling tape and zooming in as I answered "Sorry, I'm just visiting, I don't live in Montreal."

I continued on into the church and my buddy asked me if I had heard the question. "No, not really, some local thing I guess."

He laughed and, as our eyes roamed around the interior of the beautiful cathedral, he said "he wanted to know what you thought about Benedict, the new Pope."
