Furry nice Phil......!!!
This is the kind of cat I want.
looks charming
Is that the evil eye or what! I have one that looks just like Bell without the white. All black and a devil. No pics, my scanner is no good and she's not photogenic - turns out as a black blurrr.
I might add, he is a beauty Phyllis
I have one Dor of that psycotic white one you have called Miss
Beageen. Now she has an evil eye
Leave Miss B alone. She's an old lady.
Beautiful cat Phyllis!
I really like the bottom picture with the sun!
Beautiful green eyes!
Looks like the cats get as much, or more, attention than the humans. Dudley does not like it one bit.
That is an amazing cat. Look at those eyes. Heather has started a trend here I think and this will not be the last of the cat photos.
Guess I let the cat out of the bag.
Anyone know where this expression comes from. I do!
Jim, I don't know the origin. Tell us all!!!!!!!
In medieval times people would trade in livestock in the marketplace. They would trade valuable livestock and carry them in a bag to make it easier to take home. The unscrupulous ones would put a cat in the bag and say it was something else more valuable. Cats were plentiful and of little value. Sometimes their secret was exposed when the cat got out of the bag. Hence......... when someone lets the cat out of the bag they make a secret known.
I love to look up the origins of these sayings.
Thanks jim.
I knew what it meant, but never knew how it came about. We learn something new every day.
