Cat from Cat
Today I got Cat from Cat.
Usually, my mail consists of: bills, catalogues, flyers, and more bills. It is the mail equivalent of Twinkies.
But today, a small and mysterious package arrived from small and mysterious Wales. Inside, it was wrapped in purple paper – even better. I have to admit that I tore the purple paper off in my eagerness to see what was in it, and I was right to be excited: it was a gem of a book, Cat Haiku, from my gem of a niece, Cat, for no reason except she saw it and thought of me. It totally made my day.
Cat from Cat!

Don’t you just love surprises? There is never a better feeling of knowing someone is thinking of you! Your niece sounds wonderful.

I read a book of cat haiku too…it was great. Here’s another great one: I Am a Cat — by Soseki Natsume

“small and mysterious Wales” – mmm, I like that. Does she live there? On vacation? Studying? Did I miss a post?

Hope all of you who know cat lovers are taking notes for great gift ideas this Christmas!
Daisy – I didn’t post about it, but Cat changed schools and is now at university in Wales and loving it!
