A Kitten in Gorbio


'There has never been a cat
Who couldn't calm me down
By walking slowly
Past my chair.'

Qui n'ait pu m'apaiser
En marchant lentement
à côté de ma chaise.'

  1. Cute! Especially the 3rd one makes me smile!!
    Funny, I photographed my neighbour's cat, too, yesterday, which was sitting in the bird food.. Also a grey tiger cat like this one.

  4. Cute kitty...but unlike Rod McKuen, I tense up when a cat walks by my chair at someone's house...it usually ends up by jumping on me and digging in (unintentionally) with its claws!

  9. As a confirmed dog lover, have to say the kitten is so cute to convert me to felines.

  10. You seem to have a knack for photographing cats, perhaps as a result of your yeas of practice with dogs.

  16. Jilly, your photographs are beautiful. I stayed in Menton several years and I did notice how handsome the cats were!
