Very cool! Beautiful slide show also. Cats are so funny. They have their ways of demanding attention.

On the side sideshow you can see a picture of him sitting in our frying pan during our move. And my post yesterday has 2 video clips of him interacting with me.Donna Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13738281869266957726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6604430404780110710.post-46476451727743211352011-11-29T21:51:25.429-05:002011-11-29T21:51:25.429-05:00How interesting to see the drafts.

Somehow that made it all the more interesting. My favorite three lines are :<br />You must have what I want.<br />You must know what I want.<br />You must relinquish what I want.<br /><br />I am glad you kept them from the original draft (with a modification in point of view). I like the shift to the cat's p.o.v.Christy Rush-Levinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15581876400990779210noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6604430404780110710.post-53865919467642321972011-11-29T14:40:31.481-05:002011-11-29T14:40:31.481-05:00You cut words, changed some points of view, became...You cut words, changed some points of view, became a stomping around kind of thing, like a cat determined-right? Interesting to see all the versions & that it came out just like the argument, that you lost.
