summer haiku d’été – I’m an angel – je suis un ange you mean me? no... I’m an angel kitty – what bird?tu parles de moi ? non... je suis un ange félin – mais quel oiseau ? Richard Vallance I bought this hysterically funny wood carving of a cat who just swallowed a bird in Nova Scotia in 2007. J’ai acheté cette sculpture en bois d’un chat qui vient d’avaler un oiseau en 2007 en Nouvelle-Écosse.

From Rita Roberts: Mitsi just passed away: Mitsi’s vocabulary consisted of the following…
She always said this to herself first,
Good morning, Mitsi
then:
Good morning, Rita
Other words are:
What are you doin’,
Where’s Koko? and:
Give me a kiss, and also:
Where’s John. She was just about a year old.
John has Mitsi’s parents in his aviary so if they have any more babies I might have one.
