Birthday Cat

I mentioned liking the idea of shape-shifting into a cat when I was blogging about The Seventh Tide over on the Puffin website, and Sarah Kettle, the blog-publishing person there, put up a picture of a very groovy 60's sort of cat wearing John Lennon sunglasses. (Click here and scroll down to April 26, 2008 to see what I mean.) Though on some level I would like to think that, yes, I am that cat, a more realistic picture would be the one below ...



Katie is our remaining cat. She is odd. She is definitely overweight. She is less than lithe, but we love her anyway - and she just had a birthday. So ...

HAPPY 12th BIRTHDAY, KATIE!

And don't worry, we'll be happy to eat the chocolate cake for you.

Cheers, Joan.
