It’s said “Lean Not to Your Own Understanding.” Case in point
We all are sensitive to stereotypes. When it comes to our pets we rely on on a certain level of predictability. Dogs act this way. Cats act that way. The truth is there really are no rules. We can’t predict how animals will behave in certain situations. A recent YouTube video is an example.
Sonny, the cute cuddly Kitten, is an orphan no more. He has been adopted. I liked Sonny, the one-time I met him while visiting CCL he was lively, playful and affectionate. The problem was Sonny seemed to terrorize Cher. CCL resolved the matter by taking Sonny to the Cat Cafe where of course he was an instant hit. Someone came to the cafe and decided Sonny should come live at their house. I hope they enjoy him as much as I did.

The quality of our lives depends in large part on our choices. We can choose to be angry and upset. We can choose to let the misguided motorist drive in front of our car on the freeway. We can chose joy. We are not completely powerless. God directs our lives but He gives us choices.
I paid a visit to my daughter who now lives in Philadelphia. For those who read this blog on a regular basis, you know that Koko and Jean Claude have moved on. Crazy Cat Lady (CCL) is now fostering two cats, Sonny and Cher. Apparently, the cats reflect the reported later stage of their namesakes’ relationship in that the cats are in conflict at times. Still, within an hour of my visit Cher, a chubby, striped Tabby and Sonny, a frisky black Bombay, were all over me. Cher, measured and reserved, settled for just laying across my chest, while Sonny wanted, demanded constant play.
Humans are like that in that we require varying degrees of attention and connection. We also require validation. something cats as a species don’t seem to need. I have found there is an art to the ability to connect and understand. I wonder if it can be taught but I know that it’s important to find points of commonality when dealing with humans and with cats.
