HAPPY CATURDAY TO AMY’S PLACE!

THE RUM TUM TUGGER

THE RUM TUM TUGGER is a Curious Cat:
If you offer him pheasant he would rather have grouse.
If you put him in a house he would much prefer a flat,
If you put him in a flat then he'd rather have a house.
If you set him on a mouse then he only wants a rat,
If you set him on a rat then he'd rather chase a mouse.
Yes the Rum Tum Tugger is a Curious Cat--
And there isn't any call for me to shout it:
For he will do
As he do do
And there's no doing anything about it!

The Rum Tum Tugger is a terrible bore:
When you let him in, then he wants to be out;
He's always on the wrong side of every door,
And as soon as he's at home, then he'd like to get about.
He likes to lie in the bureau drawer,
But he makes such a fuss if he can't get out.

Yes the Rum Tum Tugger is a Curious Cat--
And there isn't any use for you to doubt it:
For he will do
As he do do
And there's no doing anything about it!

The Rum Tum Tugger is a curious beast:
His disobliging ways are a matter of habit.
If you offer him fish then he always wants a feast;
When there isn't any fish then he won't eat rabbit.
If you offer him cream then he sniffs and sneers,
For he only likes what he finds for himself;

So you'll catch him in it right up to the ears,
If you put it away on the larder shelf.
The Rum Tum Tugger is artful and knowing,
The Rum Tum Tugger doesn't care for a cuddle;
But he'll leap on your lap in the middle of your sewing,
For there's nothing he enjoys like a horrible muddle.
Yes the Rum Tum Tugger is a Curious Cat--
And there isn't any need for me to spout it:
For he will do
As he do do
And there's no doing anything about it!

[pollywog]

Lord, what matters most to You today?
What can direct us in each thing we do?
Could it be to let nothing at all
Interfere with our deep love for You?
—Branon

Oh this spoke to my heart!!!

[yorkie]

Cats are smarter than dogs. You can't get eight cats to pull a sled through snow.
~Jeff Valdez~

One cat just leads to another.
~Ernest Hemingway~

People that hate cats, will come back as mice in their next life.
~Faith Resnick~

A tom cat hijacked a plane, stuck a pistol into the pilot's ribs and demanded: 'Take me to the canaries'.
~Bob Monkhouse~

People with insufficient personalities are fond of cats. These people adore being ignored.

Just got back from vacation.

Prayers needed.

My great niece who is 2 1/2 months old was taken to a hospital in Newport, TN, she was running a high fever. They told the mom Nicki to take Haley home and give her Tylenol.

Very worried about her daughter Nicki took her to another hospital in Sevierville, TN which actually ran test, she has bacterial spinal meningitis, it got into her blood stream and brain. She is still in the hospital. They do not yet know if she has any brain damage.

According to her doctor she is lucky to be alive, and is not quite out of the woods yet.

Happy CATURDAY

[tiapam]

Love the caturday-par-tay! And the quotes are very good! Thank you!!

[yorkie]

Oh, no. Bless her heart, Gail. Prayers up for Haley.

[GailA]

Thanks all prayers are very welcome.

I advised my sister to have her daughter seek legal council. No hospital should send a 2 1/2 month old baby home who is running a high fever with out finding out why and first and foremost getting it under control. She kept spiking 105 degree temps for more than 24 hrs.
