A morning kiss, a discreet
touch of his nose landing
somewhere on the middle
of my face.
Because his long white
whiskers tickled,
I began every day laughing.

'Cats make one of the most satisfying sounds in the world: they purr
... A purring cat is a form of high praise, like a gold star on a test
paper. It is reinforcement of something we would all like to believe
about ourselves - that we are nice.' - Roger A Caras
"Of all the [cat] toys available, none is better designed than the
owner himself. A large multipurpose plaything, its parts can be made to
move in almost any direction. It comes completely assembled, and it
makes a noise when you jump on it." -- Stephen Baker

WE CREATE OUR OWN REALITY ...
Remember I told you in my last piece that we were moving? Well we are,
guaranteed before Christmas. So, my next story will give you the details.
You’ll be pleased to hear I’m still the optimist, but my conditioning around
meal times is very hard to shake off.
Mind you, my keepers have been investing a lot of time recently into all this
stuff about ‘creating our own reality.’
If I did, the house here would be floor to ceiling cat food, and Max & Joey
[next door’s cats] would never come into our yard again!
I
reckon it’s a load of stale cat litter. Would I have decided to scrap and
struggle for everything as a kitten? Would I have gone on into the woods for
food when I was desperate? And if I create my reality, do you think the
rabbits and birds would dream up someone like me?
And yet since I came here, my world has got better. So much so, I can’t cope at
times. They want to fuss me and if they pick me up, they get the straight paw
treatment. I love being fussed, but find it a bit overwhelming, and it’s not
very macho is it?
If a world of wall-to-wall ‘My Cat’ suddenly emerged, I’d guts out for a few
days, and then would have to stop. Though Max & Joey are a nuisance, what would
I do during my waking hours if they disappeared?
When times were rough, I dreamed of a better life. I now have it. Like you
people, now I think someone will take it off me. I suppose if I think about that
hard and long enough, they will.
I
know they don’t read my column, so I can admit to loving Ch’Bee, Milo and Poppy.
Even Harry. I can’t say Max & Joey can I?
Do you know what’s made a massive difference too? Not watching all that doom and
gloom on Cat Channel 24. The politicians want to scare us to death, and then
manipulate us together with their friends to buy useless stuff that kills us,
and get rid of our freedoms.
No, there might even be something in this ‘creating our own reality’ business
after all…
A
house with a wood behind it, in a cul-de-sac, large garden, away from the main
road. Plenty of places to hide, not far from where my keepers used to live. Near
to nature, yet a decent walk from suburbia. I even have somewhere in mind…
Jimmy, October 2006.

keeper, Jack Stewart MSc©

A
Cat's Prayer'
Lead me down all the right paths,
Keep me from fleas, bees, and baths.
Let me in should it storm,
Keep me safe, fed, and warm.
Let the sun shine where I lay,
Keep me young so I may play.
And most of all ...
Bless the people I adore,
And guard me from the dog next door.
Lisa Malone
