Kitty Caption CXXXII – More Brack”cat”ology 2006 (HOCKEY) – (Humor/Meow Alerts)

My bracket for the NCAA basketball tournament not looking too bad (except for one glaring mistake). Won’t win any money, but better than the carnage of last season. I will press my luck with a shot at the NCAA hockey pool (you know, that sport where whomever has the puck with the opposite color jersey, you whack).

Review of basketball bracket.

Play-in was correct.
Atlanta: Missed Iowa, but everyone else still there.
Minneapolis: 6-2 on the first round, perfect 4-0 on the second round.
Washington: Picked Wichita St correctly, but missed the middle of this group. Ouch !

Now for the glaring mistake.

KANSAS !! JOKE – TOKE – JAYCHOKE !!!! Second Year in a row they screwed me. Next time, I pick them to LOSE in the first round, even if they play a 16-seed.

Dunce Cap for Me

Cute kitties. And I have one that looks a lot like yours ... and she looks exactly the same when she's in her futon.

:^)

My younger cat Deimos hasn't learned that yet: He'd end up exhausted on the floor with the hummingbird hovering over his nose.

Courtship





My neighbors have an alluring gray eyed kitten
I saw her the other day and was instantly smitten
With her fluid poise and haughty elegance
Watching through the den's window as though in a trance
As she basked upon her wide front porch without a care

Narrow dark stripes flowing over silvery fur
Move in a way that make me ache and purr
There must be a way that I can get close to her!
Through the Little One's window and down the old maple tree
Over damp cool grass and across the street

Under the pale Moon's glow, I can easily see
The kitten's silhouette through the window
Her tail curled round her paws as she watches me
I had the urge to wail and shout. But that would have been wrong, without a doubt
Instead, I sat upon the porch's window sill

Questions were asked and smiles were returned
Between scratches on glass and all I had learned
Which made my heart ache and tremble and oddly burn
As the night's darkness slowly dissolved to morning's light
Lenore unfurled a smile for a kiss Good Night!

Happy to find this thread!

Thanks, the cute picture came through an e-mail the other day. I love it too. My cat is a torti-tabby with Bengal features. I guess I'll have to get a photo of her up here soon.

This is a nice change from the other threads. Thanks.

[La Enchiladita]

Love your photos... the last one looks a lot like my Brigid. Loud purr?

Thank you to the thread host.

[sully777]

This siamese looks like one of mine.

[NautiNurse]

:o)

[squarebarb]

Not al that loud but constant.

Deimos hasn't learned that yet: He'd end up exhausted on the floor with the hummingbird hovering over his nose.

They calm down after a few years.   LOL!

[freedomlover]

That is a great pic and looks just like our Sheba. She is a great cat and is so friendly we call her "the dog". My wife brought her home as a free kitten from the vet, and she looked just like a little monkey as a kitten. Probably part russian blue but not purebred.
Thanks for the pic.

[Lady Jag]

Good morning, JD!

[Kitty Mittens]

I So Love your Poems and the Pictures that Attend them, Jack! Thank you! : )

[PreviouslyA-Lurker]

Welcome to Kitty Caption La Enchiladita!

[Slings and Arrows]

They calm down after a few years. LOL!

G-d, I hope so. I love Deimos to death, but I won't miss having kitty toys bounced off my head at 4 in the morning.

P.S. Love the GIF!

[Lady Jag]

Years ago, one of my kittens was a flyer. She could jump from a sitting position and touch the ceiling, and she ofen did. As she matured, that irritation became a fond memory, so you love Deimos EVERY DAY, despite what he does. That kitten of mine lived 22 years (never went outdoors; that makes the difference) and was wonderful, but I'll always remember her as the fabulous flying feline.

[Slings and Arrows]

Oh, I love Deimos. He's a total snugglebug, loves to play, and is very protective of me - when I'm in vulnerable positions he'll often stand guard. When our schedules sync up a bit better he'll be perfect.

[Lady Jag]

I can tell you love Deimos, no doubt about it. You'd probably have to learn to abide by his schedule, however, considering that you can't tell them what to do. :)
