    There are some levels at which I find cats to be just a bit creepy. At odd moments, I'll get the feeling that 'the cat' is looking at me like Lunch.

    and sometimes so funny when she's 'actively dreaming' and I just sit and watch as she runs around her mind, going nowhere!

    You can see that she's trying extremely hard to recall those genetic memories....I think I might give her a quick cuddle (unlike the lioness).

    Dreaming cats ... for sure they dream about being lions and roar in the jungle.

    Wonderful haiku. Their 'genetic memories' must be one attribution to their aristocratic bearing.

    I love this. I think there's a lioness in every kitty just waiting to get out. Just awesome!

    Smart haiku, Patti, with "genetic memories". Humans would dream about monkeys!
