Cat Patrol
In Greenbelt there’s a cat who looks like Hitler. Here he is listening in on our conversation at Lusso.
The neighborhood cats are welcome at Dr. Agnes Bueno’s cozy house.
They’re a little camera shy but can’t help posing.
So my cats and I were watching “Downton Abbey” last year. (I have two cats, one girl cat, who is twelve—in cat years, obviously—and a boy cat, who is seven.) And at one point my younger cat turned to me and said, “What is that human woman trying to say to that other man?”
And I said, “That is Mary Crawley. She is trying to tell Matthew that she is in love with him.”
And my younger cat thought about it and said, “Well, that is a very hard thing to do.” And then he said, “You have to pick just the right time.”

I remember commenting before on your blog that it was too hard for me to get a new cat (what with them dying and me not able to handle it) and you urged me to still do so. well last Christmas a cat entered our lives, this little kitty simply walked in, plopped down and told us “this is my home, you are my humans”. Still an outside cat – but we’re getting to love her nonetheless.
