It's the end of the first work week of 2005. I don't know about you but I'm badly in need of a calming influence. Since this handsome creature looks pretty calm, I thought she might do the trick.

Could I trouble you to eat in the kitchen? I'm just getting comfy here.
This is actually a blast from the past since, sadly, Oyster is no longer with us. I'm told she was absolutely fearless, a ruthless hunter of spiders and The Queen Of All She Surveyed.
I certainly believe that last part. Look at that regal bearing.


Beautiful cat, and I'm a dog person.
pogge,
Some calming definitely needed here. Between job loss and computer crashes, this has been one awful week.
Och, Melanie: strongest good vibes coming your way from five kitties and moi.
It's good here, y'know ... ;-)
You're an small-minded, smug, ugly, bitchy Canadian (all synonyms, btw).
But - you recognize a superiour being when you meet one. Like a Cat.
So I suppose you aren't *completely* evil...
What a mystifying response.
Perhaps it is to me. Perhaps I expressed myself badly in my message to Melanie. I wished only to assure her of warm feelings and welcomes here. No smug claims from this Canadian, just expressions of affection.
