“We took a great photo there Tabby.”
“Yes Fluffy, it was good co-operation. I balanced the camera between your ears and pressed the button with my paw. Luckily those big cameras are paw friendly.”
“But the camera was heavy Tabby. I was glad when you were finished.”
“But Fluffy, you are blind, how do you know what is on the photo.”
“That is not important Tabby, I heard the bird munching at the seeds and fluttering with her wings now and again, so I knew you were taking a photo of our dinner.”
“She was a nice bird Fluffy, I think the humans call it a blue tit. It was a shame that Mrs. Human came out and took the camera away. Just when I was thinking about making the final pounce.”
“She is a spoil sport Tabby. Always intervenes when life gets interesting. Do you think your photo would be featured in the Feline Ornithological Calendar for this year.”
“It has a good chance Fluffy. I will upload it on my paw pad and mail it to the judges. I heard that Nera is on the jury this year, so we will have a good chance.”
“Oh yes, she always puts in a good word for us in Bastet’s ear. What is the prize if we get into the calendar.”
“A weeks holiday in the eternal corn chambers as apprentice mouse catcher to Nera.”
“Fun, do you think Mrs. Human will mind if we disappear for a week.”
“We might not win, I heard that the ginger tom from next door took a photo of that naked cat next door with a butterfly in its mouth. Apparently it is favoured for its artistic value.”
“Artistic value. I thought the culinary values were rated higher, who cares if it looks good, as long as it tastes good.”
“That is true Fluffy, I think we could begin packing our cat trays for the journey.”

Catastrophic. They only seem to think of food, like if it moves eat it.

Exactly. I had cat once who had kittens. Before those little creatures were 3 months old they were mousing with mom. 🙂

Our stray that came to us had kittens after four weeks – and after 8 weeks those were already taught what to do with those critters.

Born too hunt, those little kitties. 🙂

Mine were kittens when they decided to move in, but they were then playing with their cat nip toys. I think they got addicted at a young age. Their hunting instinct developed when they discovered the great outdoors.

We have contstant bird visits on the feeder. I have to take the photo through the window, otherwise they fly away.

Love the story and the pic. Always the thoughts of food in the back of their kitty minds 🙂

And sleep. If they are not eating they are sleeping.

PawPad. That must be what the dogs use at night while we sleep. I’m sure they are online.
Can I get one of those calendars? Please?

Sorry, it’s a closed circulation according to Tabby. Only those with claws and whiskers get one.
Make sure you keep your credit cards away from the dogs. you might have a few things arriving that you did not order. Perhaps a box of mixed bones.
