It has come to my attention that some people were distressed by my last post about cats.
I have even been accused of speciesism. Now, I am as open-minded as most, but I definitely believe in a prudent separation of some species. For example – Homo sapiens and Canis lupus familiaris– definitely go together and have co-evolved for thousands of years. Humans have been trained by dogs for eons, and have proven themselves as loyal and obedient followers to their noble four footed masters.
However - with Homo sapiens and felines (Felis catus) – it is a mere accident and lack of imagination that keeps them keeping company. While cats also think they are training their humans, in reality the humans are merely humoring them. Do you understand the difference?
As for cats and dogs together - it’s definitely NIMBY, baby. So- call that speciesism if you like; I just call it barking.
*************OK, this is a cute picture of Olive the kitty – but what will she be like when she grows up?????
