Dynamite The Rescued Cat. The Secrets of Lost Cats....Our cat book review.

Dynamite and I sit and read books together. 

My Daughter gets a kick out of it, or thinks I'm a bit weird.

I think Dynamite likes story time. 

I pick out a cat themed book and I read a little to her if she is sitting on me.

This book is about a woman who lost her cat and how it made her become

interested in other lost cat stories.

The author writes about her lost cat story and how it made her 

notice and wonder about other lost cats.  She actually collects the lost cat signs and

then tries to be like "Nancy Drew" and figure out what type of 

person made the sign.  She then calls the owners and

finds out about the lost cat, it's story and whether they ever found the cat.

It's actually really been fun to read.  I haven't finished it yet.

This could be part of Dynamites story.  Did someone lose her?

Did they put out signs and try to find her?  Could they believe that she is dead?

I don't know how long the pet shelters have to keep cats before giving them

to rescue groups to adopt.  

I told my husband I don't think if someone came and said that Dynamite was their 

cat that I could not give her back.  She has become mine.  So I hope if she was 

lost that the people have moved on.  I think perhaps she was abandoned.  

The next book we are going to read is about abandoned cats.

Anyways if you love cats and you want an interesting cat book to read check out

" The Secrets of Lost Cats."  By Dr. Nancy Davidson.

G.G. And Dynamite.

Do you have a favorite cat book I should read?

Garden Walk Week 20. Walking with a new friend is always a pleasant surpise.

I love the colors of this flower.  It makes me think of fall, and 

the fact that I am not ready for fall.  It's  right around the corner though.

One child is already at school, the other starts next week.

I love August mornings they are so cool and crisp.

One of the flowers that I took photos from different angles.

Black Eyed Susan's were a hit this year at the gardens.

I met up with a person that I met last year today.

We walked the gardens together and I really thought because of this

that I would have less photos to share.  But 

I still managed to take quiet a few photos.  

It was nice to catch up and chat about life.

The Humming birds love this flower.

This spot in the garden is filled with little flowers that the humming birds love.

I like the focus of the purple flower with all the yellow flowers

in the background.

I think this is a pinwheel zinnia.

I like the big white flower surrounded by the purple flowers.

Zinnia's last a long time.

Look at all the texture of this thistle plant.

I'm not sure what this flower is but it just looks cool.

It seems like the lilies have been blooming all summer.

We had such a weird summer.  It was much cooler and there was rain 

almost every week.  It was nice.  The gardens did well with this.

My friend and I found a lot of the dinosaurs that are hidden in the 

garden.  I have to say I haven't really been trying to find them this year.

I think it's the constantly looking up that is a bit too much for me.

This plants flowers smell like buttered popcorn.

Last week I posted a photo of a humming bird that just kept flying around me.

Little did I know that I had been standing near it's nest.  Can you see the baby humming bird beak sticking up.

I am getting ready to start putting together some photography books.

I think one of them is going to be filled with quotes about gratitude. 

If there is one thing I am getting right in this world it's being thankful. 

" Gratitude is the fairest blossom which springs from the soul."  Henry Ward Beecher.

Have a wonderful week.  I can't wait to get to the gardens this week.  

not sure when I will get there, but I will get there.
