Why Evolution is True is a blog written by Jerry Coyne, centered on evolution and biology but also dealing with diverse topics like politics, culture, and cats.
Lilou Kitty, multipass.
Could she be the supreme being?
Note the position of her tail when she is being stroked, she is probably in heat. Which explains the penchant for travel.
Spay that cat!
She is gorgeous. My spayed female cats would still push up their bottoms like that, so it is not necessarily a sign that she has not been spayed.
“Beg your parding, Mrs. Harding,
Is our kitting in your garding,
Eating of a mutting bone?”
“No, he’s gone to Londing.”
“How many miles to Londing?”
“Eleving.” “Eleving? I thought it was only seving. Heavings! What a long way from home!”
An old English music hall song, Anthony Burgess wrote how he was charmed by its phonetics. Any Irish cats on the road in folklore?
Lucky kitty indeed. perhaps pet owners could write down a contact number on pets’ collars…might go a long way too 🙂
