One can make a funny meme (is that the right term?) of the photo with four cats which appear to be looking in the same direction.

I’ll think about it. Tired now.

They are looking out over the savannah. Memories of ancient Egypt and Africa.

I was at my niece’s house the other day. Her big orange cat jumped up on the couch next to me.

“I was watching you out the front window”, he said. “I was wondering how you would taste with Fava Beans and a nice Chianti?”

“Did I tell you I gave your neighbors a pit bull?”, I responded. “Do you want to go outside? I think he wants to eat you.....I mean meet you.”

I keep a bird feeder on my balcony and leave the blinds open. I call it “Kitty TV.”

Many years ago I used to date a man who was mentally challanged. He had a cat and probably should not have, I did not see him for long. Once I discovered he had cats I could not leave them to fend for themselves. He was not clean and did not take care of the litter box. I threw everything out, bought a new box with the newer clumping litter and would visit every week to make sure the box was cleaned. This guy used to close all the curtains and the cat would go to the one sliver of sunlight that came through one of the openings. I could tell that he loved it. His name was Grady. I could not take him at the time but did my best to make his life better. It still breaks my heart that I could not take him. He loved to be cuddled. We do the best we can. Sorry for the venting but the window article made me think of Grady.

Well, they're darn sure not PC.

Our small dog seeks sunlight patches on the floor.

Our cat looks out the window.

My mom has a pack of raccoons she feeds on the porch. Bread and ramen and waterbowls.

Her cat Alice Ann sits out there on the swing and watches.

We call it "Alice's Animal Show".

My big barn cat, Louie, always comes in the house to take a long midday nap in front of the sliding glass doors that face west. Once the sun sets he heads outside for another night of hunting.
