Quality Time – Just Making Friends
By Betty, Jean, Dot, Ken, Anne and Peggy
This lady is showing the cat how to exercise. "This is how you do it, paws up, paws down. This is how you relax. Let's just lie here, hold your paws up and relax". The cat's name is Ginger and the lady's name is Pauline. Ginger is thinking "mind your own business, I can do it better than you". Ginger is also thinking "can I get up please?" or maybe she is thinking "this is lovely, what is Pauline doing, I can do this better than her!" Pauline loves the cat, you can tell by the look in her eyes and also she's laughing. Pauline and Ginger love each other and get along. They know each other very well. "Ginger sleeps on my bed, if she was a dog I wouldn't have to teacher her".
Just before this photo was taken Pauline and Ginger had a good meal. Ginger had tried to run away. Pauline grabbed her and told her to relax. "I Love you", you can see the love in their eyes. "Let's do an exercise together". That cat is fat, she has had Kitty Kat for dinner with a couple of mice.
After their session together it will be time to have some more dinner, get up and get dressed. Ginger is Pauline's confidante and this is quality time together. For them it's exercise. At least this cat is not out catching birds, she doesn't know how to climb a tree.
