A Cat's Life

I can't say that I have ever really liked cats. Kittens, yes. Cats, no. But kittens grow up to be cats. Somehow I feel like cats are not authentic. They never show their true selves. They're sneaky and manipulative. They have secrets. They're shy and introverted and prefer to be left alone. They judge and form strong opinions about humans. They love a warm nap in the sun. You could say they are lazy. They like to stretch and preen themselves.  They like to be clean. They seem to take pride in appearance. Maybe I don't like cats because I share some of their traits! 

 

Cat napping in the spring sun. Looks heavenly to me!
