if cats could talk....

if cats could talk, they wouldn't. ~nan porter

soul sister
i never really liked cats, appreciated cats...
understood cats...until now. 
now i live with a cat. 
two actually 
and have found
a new meaning to the phrase soul sister.
these feline friendlies have become endeared to
me in the most unexpected of ways...
this morning when i needed
it the most 
(and didn't realize such...or admit to such...)
i had my hand held by my furry friend
all 11 pounds of her purring long haired torso was
anchored on my heart
her sand paper tongue
licking me
what a welcome to the day
at least i wasn't going to be late for work

stress had really been taking it's toll 
lately,
i had been so exhausted..she must
have known i needed a little loving
i
because she was there for me
i could feel the love
the encouragement

i still can't say i understand cats, 
but i will say, i really love mine!
