Ah ... the silence of a non-begging, content cat, who settled into a cardboard box for her mid-morning nap is pure joy. It's best to just walk on by, pretend you didn't see her and don't shake the treat bag! But first, you must take a few photos, of course.

Empty nester shakes her narrow-minded view
