Deep in the palm of luxury

This is Jinx, a cat from down the block that has taken up residence with my immediate neighbor to the west. She is absolutely fearless and, when in my back yard, simply ignores the snarling charges of our large dog Hogan. Who in turn is flummoxed by the cat's refusal to play the role of prey and slouches away pretending the encounter never happened.

I don't laugh out loud at much, but that one did it! Cats are in their own world! A saying is that a dog comes when you call it; a cat takes a message and gets back to you when it wants to!
