In the sunshine on the living-room rug Sparkles was asleep in the sun How I longed to give her a hug He ears perked up from her sleep When she heard a Dove's sing Quickly she bounded To the glass door On the floor She sat Stared

Sweet little kitties. They do sense sound and motion. I know she gave you a hug once the excitement of the dove passed. :)

Really lovely, Darlene! These are real moments of life when we observe things happening in our surrounding we might not have noticed before! Even a cat enjoys a dove's song! Your Sparkles must be very special! Love ~ Mala

Sparkle, I am sure has a keen sense of hearing. In fact all cats have. A rug is a cat's most cozy place of rest. Love the poem Darlene

Hello Ann Cantu, this was not a dream. I do not have a dog. I adopted a rescues cat. As I created this pom it made me smile. Enjoy your day my friend. So nice to meet you.

Cats are great company and meditation to wonder -- doves are music. Of course, to other friends of ours, they are more a meal. Who knows. I had a black cat that seemed to love birds...would not hurt a feather. Go figure.
