Yesterday, on a chilly
outing
with friends, we saw at the
edge of a parking lot
two small, stubby cats
entwined on the pavement.
Love making? No, I realized
that one cat
was very ill and the other
was using its warmth
to protect. Heartbreaking,
yet heart affirming.
Note: this
feral cat was not one of the cats in this observation,
but one that I had encountered a couple of weeks ago.
