A Case of Vertigo ?




James Stewart and Alfred Hitchcock ...♥️ When one lives with cats the imagination runs wild πŸ˜‚πŸ˜Έ



"A feeling of dizziness...

A swimming in the head...

figuratively a state in which

all things seem to be engulfed

in a whirlpool of terror"




Vertigo ~ Alfred Hitchcock

Pussycat Pussycat Where Have You Been?πŸ€☘️🌱🌿🌷


🌷
πŸ€☘️🌱🌿



I sneaked into M's room to visit her flowers.

Oooh, and?

When I saw a plant with teeth open its mouth I ran under the chair.

Ask M if she can grow you some Cat Grass 🌱

 I think you guessed the plant that scared Bat under the chair to be the mysterious, meat-eating loving plant  The Venus Flytrap . A little reading and research might just be all you need to successfully grow one of these unusual plants.




Good Luck πŸ€

The Secret of the Old Book πŸ“–

The smell of old books. There's a word for that, Catsbibliosmia, 😹 but seriously, it's called Bibliosmia. I love the smell of old books and  Maggie loves it too. 


I love collecting old books, not because of their distinctive odor although it is one of their capturing attributes but because I love the stories, the illustrations and of course their covers that draw me into their worlds. 


The smell of old books derives from the Lignin content, the fibers, and chemicals used in the bookmaking of that particular book. Through time, the Lignin content breaks down to form compounds like vanillin and furfural, which are the elements that produce a smell much like vanilla and almond. Combine these scents with their environment they originated from, maybe from a house whose occupant loved coffee, loved plants and flowers, cats and dogs, all these components' odors play a part inoculating the book with its own beautiful and rare perfume.

So, I love sweets, especially ones made with vanilla, and almond and because I'm a diabetic the next best thing to the real sugar is the scent of an old book.

To be surrounded by volumes of old books, all keeping secrets. What a wonderful obsession!

AIR CASTLES AND A BLACK CAT ~ MARCH 1ST/2020 πŸ€πŸ˜Ί

Happy March 1st / 2020




When I am tired of toil and strife
And wearied of pursuing care,
I turn aside from real life
And build a castle in the air.

A Stitch in Time Saves Nine * Please Don't Eat The Daisies 🌼🌼🌼 Happy Caturday 😻

They say a stitch in time saves nine, in other words, deal with the problem right now before it gets out of hand. I love Spring, I love flowers and, I love cats and dogs but cats destroy the flowers 🌷🌷🌷 so before they could ( although some leaves already have little teeth marks) kill the daisies I covered them under a glass dome. πŸ˜‚ Now, Bat is wondering what to do with his extra special day.
