    Flu sidekick gave Dad
    Ouchies where it really hurt...
    Nice to meet you --- CLAUDE!


    Cassie has me trained.
    Food at 4 AM each day
    Sometimes earlier.

    Two new spots on rug.
    Cassie Cat has barfed again.
    Get out the Resolve.

    And I always think of this one (which I didn't write) when Cassie does it:
    You must scratch me there!
    Yes, above my tail...
    Behold! Elevator butt.
    Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    But she still gets fed this way,
    Cat's habits don't change.

    Today's COTD Princess China Origami Haiku got me thinking about this thread...

    source: hbprr.org

    The food in my bowl
    Is old, and more to the point
    Contains no tuna.

    There's no dignity
    In being sick - which is why
    I don't tell you where.


    Am I in your way?
    You seem to have it backwards:
    This pillow's taken.

    The dog wags his tail,
    Seeking approval. See mine?
    Different message.

    My brain: walnut-sized.
    Yours: largest among primates.
    Yet, who leaves for work?

    Most problems can be
    Ignored. The more difficult
    Ones can be slept through.

    Oh, these are great! Thanks, Elyse.
    I meant," said Ipslore bitterly, "what is there in this world that truly makes living worthwhile?"
    Death thought about it.
    CATS, he said eventually. CATS ARE NICE.

    Cat at the window
    Observes falling snow in cool
    Rapt fascination

    Humans struggle with
    Boots, mittens, hat and scarf just
    To leave the warm hearth

    Return frostbitten,
    Cat food in hand; cat, aloof
    Refuses the gift
    I've Been Frosted
