Our cat was slightly feral when she arrived. It took a long time to get her to trust, and even then, she only trusts me. In fact, she seems obsessed by me. I'm like some goddess to her. She lets me pet her, sits on my lap and follows me around (when it's not time for a nap). I think love and patience go a long way with these bruised souls.Marthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09262406079948479112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405619091794912972.post-55945097876581556182017-04-10T17:33:05.630-03:002017-04-10T17:33:05.630-03:00I like your poem and I like your cat-pics and I ha... I like your poem and I like your cat-pics and I have a long red mark down my forearm from when Ripcat Razortoes got feisty the other day. <br /> I don't have any cat-poems, but Briana does, and she's digging one up for me to share with you right now:<br /><br />Feline Performance Art: Form 2<br />Form 2. Vaudeville:<br />A Drunken Bender<br /><br /><br />The cat comes onstage reeking of dignity.<br />He implies a top hat,<br />holds his tail in a formal catenary curve,<br />all perfect grooming, to the whiskertips.<br /><br />A tiny smile seems to acknowledge audience anticipation <br />-his act is the justly famous Transformation,<br />sophisticated toff to maniacal degenerate.<br /><br />For the first drink he mimes tossing back a shot,<br />using his catnip stuffed mouse.<br />Ah, it must have been whiskey!<br />(we can tell by the headshake/shiver)<br /><br />Another, if you please!<br />Again he flings it back, with even more flair<br />and almost without pause<br />turns to snatch up the 'glass',<br />this time treating it a bit more roughly-<br />(the illusory top hat disappears).<br /><br />The following drink takes some time;<br />he carries it around awhile<br />making gestures as if he's at a party<br /><br />By the time he downs another shot<br />his aim is noticeably off-<br />it goes wildly sideways.<br /><br />He scrambles after it<br />pounces, and falls to the floor.<br />The crowd roars appreciation<br />and the piano player's tinkles switch to ragtime.<br /><br />Now he's thrashing about<br />mauling the glass<br />seemingly desperate to pick it up<br />but far too drunk to manage it.<br /><br />His audience is incapacitated with laughter<br />Success!<br />He retrieves the glass<br />holds it high, in a parody of his earlier snootiness<br />and exits to thundrous applause.<br /><br /> That poem was about our friend's cat Samuel L. Jackson.<br /><br /> -Doug in Oakland dinthebeasthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12941071534250216503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405619091794912972.post-66047443494233292892017-04-10T14:48:59.396-03:002017-04-10T14:48:59.396-03:00... and yet they still have us wrapped around thei...... and yet they still have us wrapped around their furry paws ...jenny_ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15475480579733466963noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3405619091794912972.post-9492725346557404282017-04-10T14:47:46.559-03:002017-04-10T14:47:46.559-03:00Thank you, Delores.
