I had nothing to blog about today so I decided to take a look back and see what I could find.
Exactly ten years ago today I wrote this post on July 25, 2009.
Truth be told, I don't really remember the gold cat but there have been a lot of them.
Pals
Smoke, our sidewalk supervisor, yard foreman and the only one of our cats that we let go outdoors, has taken to napping on one of the deck chairs recently. I looked out and spotted him there this morning.
But, to my surprise, I discovered another cat on an adjacent chair.
This little darlin' has been hanging around lately and Smoke seemingly has accepted him. He's quite shy, yet bold, and neither of us has been able to approach him. I think he's a girl but SWMBO says yellow/orange cats are always boys and she named him Golden Boy. But he's not at all aggressive which, I guess, is why Smoke has accepted him so readily.

When we lived in Boston our previous German Shepherd was rather aloof, paid little or no attention to other dogs. One day while walking along the Charles River he met another German Shepherd and immediately they became best buds, they'd run together, play ball together and when they were tired they would rest next to each other. The other dog's owner said, "Phoenix has never made friends with any other dogs, basically ignored them." Two brothers from different litters I guess. Animals are as strange as humans.
ReplyDeleteWell, Happy 10 year anniversary blogging!
ReplyDeleteActually *this* blog dates to March of 2008 and is my third time at it. The first two are lost to the "sands of time".
ReplyDeleteCheers to the archive! Obviously a memory aid as well!
ReplyDeleteI had a golden cat many years ago and he was indeed a boy. He also had an adventurous personality.
