Here in July 1973, Griddlebone proves that not even an Elizabethan collar can keep a cat from finding a hidey hole.
No doubt, if we hadn’t shown up to set off bright lights in her face, she would have been dreaming of chasing rats.
from Cat’s Dream . . .
I should like to sleep like a cat,
With all the fur of time,
With a tongue rough as flint,
With the dry sex of fire and
After speaking to no one,
Stretch myself over the world,
Over roofs and landscapes,
With a passionate desire
To hunt the rats in my dreams.. . .
— Pablo Neruda






They are adaptable aren’t they? Cute picture, and a wonderful poem.
Thank you, James. Neruda is a master.
