PINK PANTHER ~ MEGLIO STASERA 🇮🇹🐱🍀🇨🇦 ♥️🙏

Reminiscing at the moment...

 When M took a picture of Bat in the pink kitty cat hat and named it Pink Panther it took me back to the 1963 movie Pink Panther and Fran Jefferies singing Meglio Stasera in the Ski Chalet MIRAMONTI in Cortina D'ampezzo in the province of Belluno. 

My dad was born there as most of the Livinal family. On my mother's side, Sposaro's family comes from Genova, Naples, and Calabria. Pretty much covering a good part of Italy. Most of our family lives in northern Italy. So, because today it is what it is, I am sharing this post with everyone. A Pink Panther Gatto and this beautiful Italian song to makes things a little more cheery.🇮🇹 🐱🍀🇨🇦♥️🙏

And for Caturday, a Pink Panther who now has claimed the gothic chair for his own with the soft black velvet pillow which has you can see he almost disappears if not for his pink hat. lol 

Meglio Stasera ~ Fran Jefferies

ForbinColossus Thanks for uploading this wonderful video, brings much joy! 

The music of Henry Mancini that added the magic to the 1963 film, The Pink Panther. "Meglio Statsera" (Italian for It Had Better Be Tonight), Sung by Fran Jeffries. Lyrics by Franco Migliacci: 

Meglio stasera, che domani o mai 

Domani chi lo sa, quel che sara

Non mi dire d'aspettare

Il domani che verra

E una porta che tu chiudi

Fra me e te

Se stasera ti decidi 

A rispondermi di si, 

I domani che verrano 

Li dedico solo a te

Megglio stasera, che domani o mai 

Domani chi lo sa, quel che sara 

Nasce il giorno e il giorno muore, 

E la notte portera 

L'incertezza del domani,

Chissa, chissa

Basta un desiderio solo 

A non farti riposar,

E una pulce sul lenzuolo 

Che dormire non ti fa 

Meglio stasera, che domani o mai 

Domani chi lo sa, quel che sarra solos

Se stasera ti decidi 

A rispondermi di si, 

I domani che verrano 

Li dedico solo a te 

Megglio stasera, che domani o mai 

Domani chi lo sa, quel che sara 

English Translation (Let me know if this is wrong, please): 

Better tonight, than tomorrow or never Tomorrow who knows what will be? 

Don't tell me to wait for tomorrow to be it's a door that you're closing between you and me if you decide tonight to answer me with a yes the tomorrows that will come I'll devote them only to you. Better tonight, than tomorrow or never Tomorrow who knows what will be? The day was born and the day dies, and the night will bring the uncertainty of tomorrow Who knows, who knows? Just a single enticement can make you unrest; it's a flea on the sheet that won't let you sleep Better tonight, than tomorrow or never Tomorrow who knows what will be?

🍀Four Leaf Clover Poem 🍀

I know a place where the sun is like gold,
And the cherry blooms burst with snow,
And down underneath is the loveliest nook,
Where the four-leaf clovers grow.
One leaf is for HOPE,
And one is for FAITH,
And one is for LOVE, you know,
And GOD put another in for LUCK
If you search, you will find where they grow.
But you must have HOPE,
And you must have FAITH,
You must LOVE and be strong
-- and so -- If you work, if you wait, you will find the place Where the four-leaf clovers grow ~

~Laura Augusta Yerkes 1905

Spooky old B & W flicks are great to watch and these two cats, Bat and sister Maggie adore watching them with us. They see things we don't see 👀 We believe in ghosts. Do you?

HAPPY CATURDAY & EYES OF MARCH 🌼🐱🌼🐱🌼🐱🌼 Out of My Mind

“Imagine if you could dream 75 years of time in one night.”
Maggie…’ Well, I tried to but you interrupted my dream.’

The Dream of Life - Alan Watts 

So then…

Let’s suppose that you were able, every night, to dream any dream you wanted to dream. And you could, for example, have the power within one night to dream 75 years of time. Or any length of time you wanted to have.

And you would, naturally, as you began on this adventure of dreams, fulfill all your wishes. You would have every kind of pleasure.

And after several nights of seventy-five years of total pleasure each you would say, “Well, that was pretty great! But now let’s have a surprise.”

“Let’s have a dream which isn’t under control. Where something is going to happen to me but I don’t know what it’s going to be.”

And you would dig that, and come out of that and say, “Wow, that was a close shave, wasn’t it?”

Then you would get more and more adventurous.

And you would make further and further gambles as to what you would dream.

And finally, you would dream where you are now.

A Case of Vertigo ?

James Stewart and Alfred Hitchcock ...♥️ When one lives with cats the imagination runs wild 😂😸

"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"

Pussycat Pussycat Where Have You Been?🍀☘️🌱🌿🌷

🌷🍀☘️🌱🌿

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 🌱

image ~ Wiki How

 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 🍀

The Secret of the Old Book 📖

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!
