ABC Wednesday - C is for Cretan Cats
I contemplated for ages what to post for ABC Wednesday this week. I could have compiled any number of collections of cows or clocks. I could have considered visting Catalina or Chester, Christchurch or Cobh.
In the end, while browsing through files, I came across these three photographs of Cretan cats I'd created for the Cypriot magazine Creature Features. One of the photos appears in issue #16 along with three poems of mine on the subject of dogs.

C for Cute Cat :)
ReplyDeleteDarn - you just stole my Rodos subject!
ReplyDeleteGerald I'm an absolute fool when it comes to cats. When I sit down someplace a cat will appear from nowhere and jump on my lap. When I work in a garden a strange cat will follow me around. If I walk down the street to the shops and cats see me they stop what they are doing and stare at me.
ReplyDeleteThe other day I saw a cat quietly sitting in the middle of an ice rink. That's cats. They are different. I love them for it.
Oh, weren't they beautiful and relaxed in the warmth of the sun. Cats are adorable! =o)
ReplyDeletethese are such lovely cats, beautifully caught on camera...

My cats maybe cool but that centre image, the kitten is just far too adorable. Lazing cats in crete. I wish.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots of these cats! Happy C to you!
ReplyDeleteCretan Cats. Wonderful. I was particularly enthralled with a picture of the cat appearing with your poems about dogs. Love it.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful cats. I once was caretaker to a cat born on Crete; his name was Demetrius and he was the size of a baby cougar; at 33 pounds, he was too much cat to cuddle, I fear, but I loved him anyway.
ReplyDeleteI saw some gorgeous wild cats in Portugal and in Italy. Are these wild or doemsticated?
ReplyDeleteI just love cats. They are my favorite : ).
ReplyDeleteVery Cute Cretan Cats! Lovely photos.

ReplyDeleteTwo days ago I went shopping for an old lady who lives alone except for her cat. I gave her the groceries in a cardboard box. She left the empty box in a corner. After I left, the cat claimed the box. And now she sleeps in it instead of on the bed. The cat I mean, not the old lady.
ReplyDeleteReal cuties
ReplyDeleteCats are one of my favourite animals despite my allergies. They are such independent creatures.
