Cat philosophy

04/17/2012

Meet Henri, the feline philosopher. Oh how he breaks my heart! The mournful way he hangs his head while submitting to the indignity of having his butt hair trimmed. His slow turn to camera, bringing home the irony of a little sign, "Pay attention to the cat." ("Not that they ever do.")

And oh! Henri! "Immortalised on the wall. Forgotten on the floor." I sob.

I first saw Henri on Hila Lumiere's blog, le projet d'amour. You should visit her lovely blog now and if you like what you see (which I'm quite sure you will), vote for Hila in the Best Australian Blogs competition. (There are several pages of blogs, listed alphabetically, and Hila's blog is listed under the letter 'L' on page three as "le projet d'amour.")

Elsewhere:
Today I'm back on the English Muse, bringing you a taster from the stunning Hindu Festival of Colours. Won't you pop in and tell me what you think?

Hilarious! Oh how I love Henri! He speaks for all cats out there. That look of contempt... that familiar look I saw in my own cat's eyes over the years! Thank you for sharing this gem. x

That slow turn to camera with the look of disgust in his eyes. It kills me! And as I type I can see my own cat Ruby on her favourite green chair. Me thinks she would inspire "The white idiot writhes on his chair, begging for cheeseburgers. I am surrounded by morons" from poor Henri.

I love Henri! And we must've been on a similar brain wave because I have him on my blog today, too. He's so sweet I just want to cuddle him all night.

Oh good you're here

I have so much to share! This blog is my well-worn scrapbook, bulging with ticket stubs from far-off places, photographs of the lovely and the absurd, letters from strangers, gifts in the mail, fables and dreams, cupcake-addictions, sweet tunes, and treasures uncovered.

If all this leaves you wanting more, take a look at my novella Airmail.
