september 29th, backyard with the catboys....

September came to a rapid close this year, or is it the same each year?
Sunday morning I decided that I did not have new pictures of the cat boys this week so I walked towards the back of the complex hoping that some furry creatures would follow me.

The stretched out one, followed me like a jaguar, and I was happy to see him high on that wall.

Rapidly he scaled down the white stucco surface,

so quietly that I did not even hear the usual thump. I was looking at his shadow wondering if it would confuse him, that shadow that closely followed him on the wall.  Gingerella, who was down at my feet, was looking intently. He did not know if it was one or were there two cats coming towards us.

They kissed as the French do, one side

and then the other!

I thought it would be good to get them to sit and reflect a bit; in fact, thinking about it this could be why they have been a bit on the wild side lately.

Mr Sweet Pants quickly sat on the neighbor patio wall

while the orange one ran to the dirt and rolled on his back.  Less surprised I could not be.

I asked him to try again

while Augustus closed his eyes 

and finally, I had two rascals, who had assumed a good posture of reflecting.

We reflected on this:

O Son of Existence!  

Remember Me in My earth that I may remember thee in My Heaven. 

Thus may our eyes delight therein.

(The Hidden Words)

I had been thinking the other day about what things/places I remembered or not and why, and instantly felt a little sad that some places did not leave an impression on me.

Cat boys wished you a happy beginning to October.  They sent you pawfuls of kisses with little purrs.
