Good morning!
Today was a terrible day back in 365 AD when a tsunami hit Alexandria, in 1925 the infamous Scopes trial ended with a conviction and a fine of $100 for teacher John Scopes. It was also the day in 2011 when NASA’s final shuttle mission ended, and in 2005 two weeks after a first round of attacks, London’s underground and bus transit system was attacked again.
Our feline princess is being sociable and friendly today, however she may have ulterior motives.
Zosia: Here you are!
Hili: Here I am and I may be petted.
In Polish:
Zosia: Tu jesteś!
Hili: Tu jestem i można mnie głaskać.
Hili looks a bit guarded to me. Is she looking for an escape opportunity?
Today I notice this from the 2015 Scientific Imaging Competition, run by the Royal Microscopical Society (RMS) in the UK. A cross section of a cat tongue.

Woops. Looks like you’ll have to scroll down for about 45 minutes to reach the cat tongue. But the scroll is a pleasant stroll.
She looks pretty relaxed to me. Notice her ears aren’t doing anything, and her right rear leg is a bit sprawled out, not in a position to launch herself. I’d guess she was photographed just as she started to do a bit of melting under Zosia’s ministrations.
