Sitting. Pretty


Sitting. Pretty

My two new companions continue to develop their personalities as they grow. Pip is still pretty small, but Pudge is gainong steadily. Though they are sisters, they are complete opposites, physically and temperament. Pudge is outgoing and assertive with her tail high in the air. She likes to crouch on her hindlegs to peer at something she's curious about, then jump right in. She is the Yin. Pip is much more timid employing stalking movements as she prepares to jump on her sister. She cries alot and carries her tail down. She doesn't appear sick, but they will soon be getting their kitten Vet checks. Pip is the Yang, staying low to the earth.

If you live with a cat or cats, and want to understand and train them the Taoist way, I reccommend The Tao of Meow, by Deborah Wood, a Random House softcover book.

Till next time, adieu from the three of us.
