Where cats grow.



On a warm, sunny morning we walked up the hill and found a place where ginger-cats grow. They seep and they creep from the bark of a bush, all bright and beautiful. We watched for a while, hidden in long grass and even as we watched the ginger began to wriggle and to move and it pushed away from the rough bark and grew legs and whiskers and a new cat was born. She stalked away from the wood and out into the world and a life of adventure.

That looks like fabric tucked into the branch. I think I might need to make fabric art from this!

What a whimsical, magical connection of fungus and feline.

Did I come from there too?

It looks a little too bright though. I'm on the watered down ginger side.

It's been a few moons since I last peered in through your door. I'm happy to see it's all as was before, lots of adventures, napping and feline ginger wonderment *!*

Hope you three ginger kitty-kats and your Mom are keeping safe and warm. I've been reading about all the gales and heavy seas! Thinking of you.

We notice all cats have a special relationship to trees--sniffing, scratching, climbing. Now, we see yet another connection. These are the threads of a great tale.
