Occasionally, I am nominated for various blogging awards. Although, I am grateful for the nomination, I (in a rather bah humbug kind of way) do not accept such awards. I will acknowledge the nomination, usually with a long-winded explanation that I don't accept the awards... but wanted to add something here along the same lines, just in case anyone was thinking of nominating me again. Not that you have to (think about it or nominate me!)
If you do nominate me, thank you very much by the way.
If I am nominated, I will automatically pass the award on to all of those in my 'Blogs I Visit' page - there is a link to the page elsewhere on this page. This note is me automatically passing them on...
I find the awards come with a condition to select a certain number of blogs to pass it on to, and I have great difficulty choosing from the great blogs I regularly visit. It's easier for me not to accept any award, for this reason, which isn't a very good reason, but it is a reason all the same.
If you've read this far, thank you, and please accept my special perseverance award (which comes without any conditions whatsoever!)
There, I'm only part bah humbug after all!
I think big cats are gorgeous to see……..with many bars between them and me……….MTM does have photos of lions from a safari he took in Kenya years ago. They are either sleeping or…..well, you know.
I like all cats myself. Big ones, small ones, and talking ones! They do do a lot of the well, you know, though!
Oooh, that was so right it gave me shivers. It felt just like one of my cat-dreams.
Thanks, Diane… I think you’ve mentioned your cat dreams before – you dream of being cat-like, if I remember… I tried to put myself into the mind of a cat when I wrote this…
Good one Tom!
God Bless!
Prenin.
Thanks, Prenin!
This sounded like a smart cat to me. Very nice.
Thanks, Tess!
I bet Spudley loves this one.
I’ll be lying if I said that I wasn’t thinking of Spudley when I wrote this, Kate, especially after I saw her talking to a couple of sparrows in the garden the other day. She’s a clever one, that cat! She speaks English, and now Sparrow!
Quite the International Statescat!
Indeed!
Having kept cats myself, and having had the odd one or two presents brought me in the form of gifts of mice and birds unfortunately .. Cats will follow their instincts.. and Pounce ! Very well done, and love the One eye picture too.
Thanks, Sue, cats love to bring their offerings every now and then don’t they? They look proud as punch with them too! But yes, they are instinctive!
I found that photo on the Google Image thingy, and loved the colour, so I borrowed it…
A lucky escale, cats don’t
usually miss out on their lunch

I knew exactly what you meant, Andro, I’m quite fluent in Moggie Lingo now
! I think I’ve been watching the cats honing their skills when they weren’t hungry then, as I’ve seen quite a few leapin’ and not a lot catchin’! (Catchin’ get it?! 
Terrible joke, sorry… 
)
