He knows he's taking a chance because he's not normally allowed up there.
He's peeking out at me but also seems to be saying "I'm hiding. You can't see me."
And then a short time later . . .
"Are you kidding? I've been curled up asleep in your chair the whole time."
Cats are full of wonders and curiosity ;)
ReplyDeleteThe cat is the boss. Of everything and everyone.

ReplyDeleteA sneaky little guy!
ReplyDeleteOur pets certainly know how they can entertain us.
ReplyDeleteWhat do cats care about the affairs of man? Once, in the evolutionary line, they were lions, stalking and killing prey on the plains of Africa. As long as we feed them, stroke them when they want, and open the door our concerns are not theirs.
ReplyDeleteIn their dreams, when they were hundreds of pounds larger, lithely moving through the tall grass, he would have been just another prey, older, fat and trembling.
Good lord, I can turn even a cat post into political crap, eh?
Gimme a chance, I'll snap out of it.

Not to worry, Mike.
DeleteSFM,
DeleteI love it.
You know, our kitties do the same kind of thing. They are really good at pretensions of innocence, also. Re your comment on Ocala: I also worked in one of those gas stations in Minneapolis. The lift and tire repair stuff was outside. No fun in the winter. The girl you mentioned: I'm thinking that at that age, you may have exaggerated her beauty a bit. And I really doubt she noticed you, but then again, you were probably a handsome young rascal, so who knows? Right?
ReplyDeleteSly rascals. I miss having a cat.
ReplyDeleteThey do have attitude!
ReplyDeleteThey are interesting creatures. Would that we could all be so sure of ourselves. PBS just had a good series on cats.
