Fred the Cat coming at you fast


I bet you guys are wondering what in the world that picture above depicts. It’s me when I noticed the wrist strap dangling from Pop’s camera. At the same time she snapped the picture, I lunged for the strap. I can be fast when I see something I want.

I practice being fast and sure. It paid off last weekend when the vet people wanted to jab needles into me. I was sure I didn’t want them to and I was fast to let them know that.

I think there are times in life when you have to stand up, growl, bite and claw for your beliefs. Maybe you guys could take a lesson from me. Stand up to your government creatures. Growl at them. Bite and claw for what you believe. Last weekend that approach worked for me.

Here’s a weekend treat

Have a great weekend

Sincerely,
Fred the Cat (the cat who loves you guys)

Fred dear...do you think hissing would help to scare the bad politicians? Maybe you are right about the claws then...

Fred,

Stand your ground. Those silly humans think they can jab us with needles, think again.

Can you come with me to my next vet visit, I know they are going to hurt me but I can't help being friendly to everyone. Maybe you can scare away the ones with needles and things to stick in "other" places, I don't like that.

"stuff on my cat" is a great link

One cat hissing at the vet's office works for one cat, sometimes I wonder if a million of us hissing right in front of the White House would get the message across.

Fred I think it will take a lot more for this bunch of criminals to get things done right and get them out of office. Maybe, just maybe growling at them, a bite and a claw might help along with legal actions.

Fred you really are one smart Kitty!!! I say not only do we need to bite, and claw at them, we need to stand back observe the target carefully and then pounce on them and attack them by surprise!!! LOL......

Seriously Fred if you run in 08 I will work on your campaign!!!! Think about it, and have a FABULOUS weekend!

Hey, Fred, you must come over and meet Tennesse Jake Brake. He lives in Texas, but he was born in Middle Tennessee. Then he followed us home!

Thanks for the comment on my blog. Jake and Fred really do look alike! Jake is about 3...he never tells his age!

Don't tell Fred, but all blurry and stuff, he rather resembles as rat... er... mouse. Maybe I'm the one who's blurry.

Now I'm wondering if we should get Jax chipped, just in case he runs out the door.

An excellent picture with a moral to it. I am impressed! Although if we do get the courage to stand up to our government, I hope they don't take us to be put down!

Hi Fred,

I admire your speed, agility and independence. You instinctively stand up (or claw) for what you believe in.

You should run for office...

Hissin' & clawin' is indeed 'bout all we can be doin'. And the more that do so, the better. Problem w/ this admin is, the squeaky wheel might just get teh gitmo, rather than the grease. ahh well, i hear Cuba's a great place to vacation.

seriously though, and sans hyperbole, we're really far more likely to be swiftboated.

to which i say, "so what?"

hiss 'n' claw away and enjoy our freedom (before it's gone!)

When I got my first glimpse of your picture, I thought I needed new glasses. Of course, now that I think about it, I probably do need new glasses, just not only because of your picture. You cats! My cats like to lunge at things hanging from my hands, too.

You say that that approach worked for you. Did you get your shots, anyway?

To be a upright human being is to be enduring a philanthropic of openness to the far-out, an skill to trust aleatory things beyond your own pilot, that can front you to be shattered in hugely extreme circumstances for which you were not to blame.
