His reputation...a pussy cat?

Out in the courtyard, hiding in the shade, yesterday early evening, I am on the cellphone, Gussy's stare leads me to

this fellow who is eating fruits in the most carefree manner. He was munching away for a long time and it finally dawned on me that
Mr Squirrel no longer fears our cats because he is sure they won't hurt him. He goes straight up to Ollie, aka, Mr Puffy Pants
and wiggles his tail at him!!!
Ollie is not moving because of the back and forth of noisy movers in the courtyard that has him
quite annoyed. "You are gonna get it...", I heard him mumble.
Gustopher Jones glances a tough-cat look...
but soon is distracted by the leaves and relaxes himself by sniffing the tips.
He comes out of hiding and tells me that he is ready to read!!!
I always gasp with amazement!


I should have found a quote on "reputation", something to the effect that Ollie's reputation to be a pussy cat has emboldened the squirrels but they don't know that although he is a pussy cat, he is not a Pussy Cat! I could not find one but I could easily find one about love to indicate how much I love these boys...

"The greatest gift of man is universal love, for this love is the magnet, which renders existence eternal, attracts reality, and diffuses life with infinite joy. If this love penetrates the heart of man, all the forces of the universe will be realized in him, for it is a divine power which transports him to a divine station; and man will make no real progress until illumined by this power of love. Strive to increase the love-force of reality, to make your hearts greater centers of attraction, to create new ideals and relationships."(Promulgation of Universal Peace)

The lovely pussies wish everyone a lovely long weekend and sent everyone big kitty smooches!

Ciao!

A butterfly for their fuzzy hearts...

Proud with his recent squirrel chase, Mr Puffy Pants is on the lookout, looking out to the left and to the right! Things looked promising...the same budding tree, and the same blue skies as the day of the squirrel chase! Brother Augustus who has a keen eyesight spots a little white butterfly in the rose patch He gets on the ground and flaps his arms around to tell Ollie that he has spotted a butterfly... In no time Puffy Pants and Gussy Gus assume the butterfly hunt pose! After some trying one kitty loses interest and chooses to simply watch the butterfly while the other kitty, My Puffy Pants appears to be falling in love! The butterfly did not fall prey and we ended up discussing a rather long reading, which gave them much satisfaction...

"TRUE WEALTH
The honor and exaltation of every existing being depends upon causes and circumstances. The excellency, the adornment and the perfection of the earth is to be verdant and fertile through the bounty of the clouds of springtime. Plants grow; flowers and fragrant herbs spring up; fruit-bearing trees become full of blossoms and bring forth fresh and new fruit. Gardens become beautiful, and meadows adorned; mountains and plains are clad in a green robe, and gardens, fields, villages and cities are decorated. This is the prosperity of the mineral world.

The height of exaltation and the perfection of the vegetable world is that a tree should grow on the bank of a stream of fresh water, that a gentle breeze should blow on it, that the warmth of the sun should shine on it, that a gardener should attend to its cultivation, and that day by day it should develop and yield fruit...

The exaltation of the animal world is to possess perfect members, organs and powers, and to have all its needs supplied. This is its chief glory, its honor and exaltation. So the supreme happiness of an animal is to have possession of a green and fertile meadow, perfectly pure flowing water, and a lovely, verdant forest. If these things are provided for it, no greater prosperity can be imagined. For example, if a bird builds its nest in a green and fruitful forest, in a beautiful high place, upon a strong tree, and at the top of a lofty branch, and if it finds all it needs of seeds and water, this is its perfect prosperity...

Therefore, it is evident and clear that this wealth, this comfort and this material abundance form the complete prosperity of minerals, vegetables and animals. No riches, wealth, comfort or ease of the material world is equal to the wealth of a bird; all the areas of these plains and mountains are its dwelling, and all the seeds and harvests are its food and wealth, and all the lands, villages, meadows, pastures, forests and wildernesses are its possessions. Now, which is the richer, this bird, or the most wealthy man? for no matter how many seeds it may take or bestow, its wealth does not decrease.

Then it is clear that the honor and exaltation of man must be something more than material riches. Material comforts are only a branch, but the root of the exaltation of man is the good attributes and virtues which are the adornments of his reality. ...universal wisdom, intellectual perception, scientific discoveries, justice, equity, truthfulness, benevolence, natural courage and innate fortitude; the respect for rights and the keeping of agreements and covenants; rectitude in all circumstances; serving the truth under all conditions;...This is the prosperity of the human world! This is the exaltation of man in the world! This is eternal life and heavenly honor!..." (Some Answered Questions)

Though exhausted from all the jumping around and reading, the little cat boys felt very prosperous, and generous kitties that they are, they filled their paws with as many kisses as it was felinely possible, and blew them in the air for all.

Enjoy these late summer days...

Ciao!

PS-check out the giveaway from Kristine...oh the boys are so in love with her and have asked for airplane tickets to Denmark!

It was an ordinary day!

The skies were blue,

the overly trimmed coral tree was showing signs of new life,

we were having discourses of spiritual significance and looking for trouble at the same time.

Here's Ollie waiting in his rose garden hiding spot,

and here's Augustus discussing something with Thomas the cat by telepathy!

It did not take very long for TROUBLE to arrive,

we think he is carrying a nut under his arm!

Mr Puffy Pants is ready to play...

Look at him go...







Oh oh... better watch out for the squirrel...



At this time Gussy thinks that he should perhaps take a close up look at the situation...



He looks at me,

and then Puffy Pants looks at me, so proud!
This is just way too entertaining
maybe we can hope for another chase
or maybe we should let him go!
Let him go?
What a day, what a day! Augustus
and Ollie were both pleased.
So we read:

"Know that the blessings of the Kingdom ...are not dependent upon the capacity and the worthiness of any one; the blessings themselves are the worthiness. As the action itself, when it reaches the thing acted upon, makes that thing the action, -- so the blessings themselves then become identical with worthiness. In like manner, when the action itself descends upon the recipient, the recipient becomes the action. For example, when an object becomes broken, the action becomes realized in it. Under such circumstances, the recipient and that which is received -- or capacity and blessings -- are one. Therefore the blessings of the Kingdom ... are not enchained by any fetters. The Kingdom gives the drop the influence of the sea, and the mote that of the sun. "Promulgation of Universal Peace

The cat boys felt especially energized and soothed at the same time. All this action and meditation felt good to them. They filled their paws with as many kisses as they could muster up and blew them in the air for all. They wished all a lovely September of 2010.

Ciao!
