Cats have not forgotten this. :-)

I love cats… Their independence, their arrogance, it´s so funny. And a lot of them are master manipulators. I love it when animals outsmart humans.

Right after I read this post, I was looking at my husband’s latest flickr galleries(he’s a photographer) and he had so many animal pics that I suggested he do a collection of them in one place so he did. He calls it The Ark. Here it is. http://www.flickr.com/photos/21965819@N04/sets/72157628120933117/show/ He’s what you call a street photographer, and now he’s applying it to his animal pics. Definitely more artsy than hilarious (although some are funny). Happy Thanksgiving!

I wasn’t a cat person either until my best friend got some, and then eventually I got one. I’m still more of a dog person at heart, but I’ve warned to them considerably. The problem with cats and writing, though, is that when they want attention, they will not hesitate to meow or jump onto your lap or keyboard and stand in front of your monitor, etc. And they will be totally nonchalant about it, as if they couldn’t fathom why you would mind.

My best friend, the writer Eileen Cook, can’t imagine reading without a dog in her lap, which to me would be well…I won’t say utter horror, but totally unthinkable. So you’re not a cat person, that’s good too because, as my husband would say, “More for me!”

Happy Thanksgiving. I’m very grateful to be one of the clients of this agency. Thanks for having me!
