The squirrels who have come to know the cat boys play games knowing full well that well-fed cats won't eat squirrel meat, and so each day, we play the same game with undiminished enthusiasm.
On this particular day Ollie was playing cat and squirrel down below when Augustus yelled up for him to show him higher grounds. The precious athletic cat boy that he is ran up the wall like Robin, Batman's buddy where he felt proud.
I yelled out to him that I was very proud too.
Augustus showed him a new vista, areas that he must watch if he wants to become the lion that he is destined to become when suddenly
something peculiar caught his eyes, and from that look I knew that what he witnessed must be peculiar.
Down below I saw a squirrel dancing (pardon the lack of focus)! I think he was dancing since both cats were up on the wall but then who knows?!!!
The two cat boys agreed that the squirrels were displaying too much sass perhaps, and that
it was a good time to read and reflect.
We continued our reflections on our true selves, a topic most important to cats who want to be lions and jaguars.

In order to know, for instance, we must love learning; if we are to love we must know how to love and how to be loved." Dan Jordan
Cat boys stated that they knew how to chase squirrels and that they loved making kisses and that they were off to a good start. I could not agree more! Kisses were sent along with the best cat wishes possible.
Happy Monday everyone! Ciao!
