Read MoreYes And No
Too pooped to paw… Well, our spark for today is another take on the feeling that you have to say yes to everything and be positive and do, do, do, until you drop. It’s okay to say no.

Read MoreFeral Fixing
Well, that word (fix) is not a favorite around here but once the event is over, our feral kitties will be very happy indeed. As was I. The mairie has sent out a notice that our village ferals will be sterilized and put back, when they have recovered, into their outdoor places in our little village. Some have a little house and food is always left...

(Hmm…planning a nap takes considerable thought…) Well, papa’s mama taught him that when you butter the edges and corners of a piece of toast, the middle will take care of itself, and around here, we love thinking about that as it applies to many other parts of life, too. Maybe taking care of the essentials, the most diffiucult part of a...

Well, today’s spark has to do with trust. Benjamin Spock said that you must trust yourself because you know more than you think you do.
