Dearest Thistle: I have to admit that I was startled when I first saw your picture, but then I realized what had probably happened--you were posing for the camera and your human was fumbling with the focus and the backlighting and you got bored and impatient (and probably sleepy too), and just as you gave a BIG yawn, the camera took your picture. Isn't that ALWAYS that way?? Then everybody giggled and said "oh, look at Thistle," and now this is how you are memorialized as Cat of The Day--nobody will see the real, very beautiful you, doggone it!
