If only people were a little more like us.
Quiet, serene, affectionate beings…
…who understand the need of one-on-one comfort,
as well as solitude.
We totally understand why you enjoy nature…
…and we love to tag along.
Cats look at you a certain way.
We purr,
give you a nuzzle…
…or a head bunt,
to show how much we love you.
We don’t act as if we love you, then withhold it…
…and cats don’t care how much money you have.
Your company is what we want the most.
We don’t like it when things come between us…
…and we love you just for being you.
We care when you are hurt…
and we can’t imagine living our lives
without you.
❤
Big thanks to our feline e-friend, Buddy,

I have had cats all my life and they have personalities just like people do and will love you if you are kind to them. But don’t forget how hard it was for you to let go of your children (and your novel). Cats are very protective of their young for a handful of weeks then they lose interest. 🙂 I’m not sure I can be like a cat.

You have a point 🙂 Of course I hadn’t meant in every way. And I know my kitties never seem to lose interest in us! Thanks for your comment.

Jennifer, I’m so glad to hear that my daughter and I aren’t the only ones who think that cats care when you are hurt. I’ve noticed this for years, and she just brought it up the other day… You take wonderful cat pictures!

I am sure they know it, Wendy. Maisie and Vivian also care for each other, and one will act all concerned and come over if I scold the other one!
Thanks!

Thanks, Caitlin! Me too, I almost always had a cat or two around all my life, and I can’t imagine it any other way. 🙂 Forgive me for not knowing this but have you ever blogged about your little darlings?

Surprisingly, I haven’t! Other than having their pictures scattered in a few “Gratitude Lately” posts, I’ve never done one on my pets. Now I can’t wait to snap some new shots of them and put together a new post about my little furbabies 🙂

I miss my animal companions. My feral cats became tame and eventually lived lovingly in my home. They had short lives compared to domestic cats, but they had the most unconditional love of all.
