This morning?

There always seems to be a morning row that breaks out; usually Smokey and Ebony are the instigators!

There was an article in yesterday's Trenton newspaper about Meowmix House. According to the article, the Meowmix company adopted the participants from shelters and rescues. Each kitty "voted off" by the judges will go directly to a furever home with a year's supply of Meowmix food. None of them will return to a shelter, I love that part of it! A spokesperson for the company said they're doing this in part to raise awareness of all the kitties in shelters and rescues and to encourage adoptions especially of older kitties. I hope this will result in many adoptions by responsible, caring owners. Actually, I'm looking forward to seeing this on Animal Planet.

I still think that after a week, all you are going to get is a lot of sleeping Cats.
Unless they put catnip in the water supply.
Cats are not really that competative.

The Peace of Wild Things

When despair for the world grows in me
and I wake in the night at the least sound
in fear of what my life and my children's lives may be,
I go and lie down where the wood drake
rests in his beauty on the water, and the great heron feeds.
I come into the peace of wild things
who do not tax their lives with forethought
of grief. I come into the presence of still water.
And I feel above me the day-blind stars
waiting with their light. For a time
I rest in the grace of the world, and am free.

Wendell Berry
