Lessons Learned From Cat Sitting

Listen to poem:
Cats live in the NOW. Cats just want you to BE. Cats have two priorities: LOVE me and FEED me. Cats don’t care if you’ve gained a few pounds. Cats don’t care if you’re not wearing makeup. Lounging will win over exercise and chores every time. A good stretch can cure anything. Gracefulness comes by making chilling your #1 priority. There’s no priority more urgent than showing affection. Being cute and playful works like a magnet. Being elegant and mysterious will go a long way. There’s no greater pleasure than basking in the sun. And sometimes doing nothing is what it’s all about.
