Walking the “Kitties”
After all this time, my mood is completely dependent on how much fun I am having with the lions. I had a great morning with the cats today. As I arrived to find the cats, they all stood up and were ready for war. I thought that might be bad news for a nice day, but things got better.
Shizzle and Manizzle were sneaking up behind me and Whinny (right) let them get nice and close. Whinny was there in case I did something she didn’t like, but she allowed me to hang pretty close to her babies. After a little while with the cats in that spot, Cleo took her cubs and Whinny with her cubs to go for a drink. There was some water nearby in a nice open area. It had been so long that I had walked them, I was very anxious to get off the quad and walk with the cats.
As soon as I got on foot I knew that I was going to have a good walk. Cleo and Whinny watched me, but they allowed me to go wherever I wanted. I was just sitting with them and enjoying the moment. It had been such a long time that I just sat with them. I wasn’t trying to figure anything out or push any boundaries with them; we were just sharing some time and some space. It really is the most calming thing I have ever done.
I have been on a high the rest of the day. I won’t even tell you that I am trapped in my tent right now because of a storm. I won’t even mention that I am starving but can’t cook anything in the rain. OK, I guess just a mention. None of it will get me down because I had such a nice walk with my kitties.
