Patience

When it comes to Sara, the cat, patience is a virtue .

Whenever any of us come through the door at night, quite often she'll come dashing to the door to greet us with her signature sideways bounce and will stop right where the carpet meets the tiled foyer area. She'll sit patiently waiting for some lovin' as we take off our shoes, hang our coats and check the mail. Once we step over the threshold and onto the carpet, she's all over us like white on rice. This is the same look we get when she wants her Whiskas kitty treats. She knows we keep them on the shelf under the side table and she'll sit there, staring at them patiently, until one of us caves in and gives her some. She'll patiently wait by my feet in the kitchen if I'm cutting up cheese, chicken or draining a can of tuna.

Kitty

June 1, 2010

This is Sara (although I call her "Kitty"). Don't let her small size fool you for what she lacks in stature, she makes up for in personality. She's independant (this ain't no lap cat), addicted to Whiskas kitty treats, likes shoving her head into the shoes you've had on all day and is extremely camera-shy. It's so hard to get a decent shot of her as she tends to run off just as the camera is all set ready to go. In fact, this shot was a fluke.....I spent close to an hour taking shots of her only to have her turn at the last minute and show off her bum to the camera. She does everything to avoid the camera. Finally, after running around the living room chair, I told her I gave up. That's it. No more photos. Just as I was about to put the camera away, she poked her head around the corner. CLICK! Clearly, she was caught off guard. The look of surprise she has on her face in this photo turned quickly into a look of disgust. Poor kitty! Foiled again!
