ABOUT ME

I have invited you to let me tell you about Tom, my amazing friend of the feline specie. Love for the feline specie comes from the story of Peter Rabbit and Mr. Mcgregor wherein the white tabby is grooming herself by a pool of water. Later I collected insects and rocks growing up to becoming a chemist with a major oil company and later a college chemistry instruc-tor. Moving to other cities, family, etc. I lost contact with that field. Among other things, I have performed as a singer, speaker, museum docent, book recorder, newspaper reader for the blind; worked to establish a lighting business and got a mas-ters degree in radio/tv production and performance. My latest work is writing popular fiction, novels. I will try to entertain with stories about Tom and what I've learned about cats.

WELCOME

This is for all of you who love cats, who live with one, or more,. It is also for those of you who value friendship and enjoy the company of others. I welcome you into my life, about my cat and me. It may be we have other like interests and special loves than cats and friendship, be-cause I like to share, at times, some special insights, or some degree of enlightenment that may spring upon me. So, please join me for a little part of your day.

Tom, a common tabby, but a noble cat

Congratulate me. I finally got an option to write a new post.  This summer Tom has been playing
games with me when it is time for him to go outside at night.  He has been hiding as he senses
it is time to go out.  He stays in all day but needs time outside, and that is when dark approaches.


Well, we've been playing chase and catch to get him out, and I am tired of it.  So I devised a
method to get him out, and by his somewhat passive attitude, I think he doesn't mind so much.
I life up his forelegs and dance him to the door.  That is because his hind legs are extra strong, and
he tuck them up to kick and scratch me.  I bleed, so keeping his hind legs on the floor, he can't
kick them up.  When we get to the door, he has waited for me to open it.  Then he goes out.  He
has been more cooperative lately, although the dark beings earlier these days in September.  Now
is is October. 


Otherwise, he is a gentleman cat.  I feel better about (don't let out the secret) I can outwit a cat.
