The Way Things Are with Critters

 Welcome to another 

SATURDAY'S CRITTERS

For my post today I'm going to lead with

my daughter's animals from my recent trip to Alabama.


"An animal's eyes have the powers to speak a powerful language."

Martin Buber


Artemis loves Murphy the dog living on their right side but as usual Artemis has her eyes on three dogs living on the other side always under her watchful eyes!



Miss Lou-Lou

What greater gift than the love of a cat.
Charles Dickens


As a matter of fact this is Sparkle's comfy position. 

A cat has the absolute emotional honesty; human beings, for one reason or another, may hide their feelings, but a cat does not. Ernest Hemingway.


"I would like to see anyone, prophet, king or God, convince a thousand cats to do the same thing at the same time. Neil Gaiman
 

Until one has loved an animal, a part of one's soul remains unawakened.
Anatole France


Artemis checking out Sparkle and Lou-Lou enjoying the sun from their catio, and still keeping watch on the dogs next door.
The kitties have a cat sized doorway leading from the living room to their special catio on the deck!

There is a wilderness we walk alone.

However well - companioned.

Steven Vincent Benet




Truth is a hard deer to hunt. Life is not lost by dying;
 life is lost minute by minute,
day by dragging day, in all the thousand small uncaring ways. S. V. Benet



The most complicated skill is to be simple.
