Ode to Bibes

"Of all God's creatures, there is only one that cannot be made slave of the leash. That one is the cat. If man could be crossed with the cat it would improve the man, but it would deteriorate the cat."

- Mark Twain

Bibs, my sweetie, is on my lap right now as I type this post. She's carefully staring at the screen and wondering what is happening. :)

Her favorite pasttime activity is to climb up my lap and move towards my hair... lean her face on my shoulder and sweetly purr until she falls asleep.

Whenever i'm feeling lonely or down, she's the one that stares at me and, with her unique feline eyes, tells me: "I know what's on your mind and I'm gonna take care of you."

She's beautiful and smart. A curious girl who is able to open doors by skillfully jumping at the doorknob. She's my stubborn little thing and I simply adore watching her as she analyses what her next move will be so that she can get what she wants. She'll never give up.

She's a free soul as every human being should be. Being free, for a cat, is having the freedom to choose who to love and who to be with. It's to be able to share your most precious moments with that special person and only that one will trully know who you are.
