Ever since the cat I didn't like at first but ended up totally loving died , wherever we go we see a cat. I am not talking just any cat but in
total General Hospital style, a cat that looks just like Annie! It's
really weird but also kind of comforting. And, it's extra weird because
it's never a situation where someone opens a door and a cat runs out.
It's always that a cat appears out of thin air or is in a totally
unexpected place. Of course I take photos of the cats to prove I didn't
imagine such weirdness. For example, when we were in Capitola recently
visiting the places of my youth, we were standing on a path and a cat
walked right out from I don't know where and stopped right in front of
us. She even posed for photos like Annie used to after letting us pet
her. She wasn't a scaredy cat at all. Then, a few days later as my
husband waited to board a flight to Atlanta, right there in the airport
was a kitten that looked like a Mini-Annie. Andy Dick was also there so
that added to the weirdness.
Yesterday my husband and I visited Lake Shrine Temple in Pacific
Palisades. It's an absolutely beautiful place to walk around or just
sit and look at how pretty the surroundings are. Before we went, I was
showing him an article about the place and how there are fish, ducks,
and turtles to feed and of course I said, I hope there will be a cat!
And we both laughed because why would there be a cat? Cats don't really
go with ducks and fish unless they are eating them.
We were strolling along in the garden when I saw 3 little benches
grouped together with a very nice view of the lake. I've never met a
bench that I didn't just have to sit on so we sat and took a few
photos. I stood up to take a photo of my husband who I am sure at this
point would like me to reiterate that he is not gay* when he turned
and told me to LOOK! Under one of the benches was a CAT! This cat was
just blissing out in the garden and was happy to let us pet her and
posed for photos. The odd thing is it was a black cat, just like
Apocalypse who we haven't seen in weeks.
I hope it isn't a bad sign.
*Not that there is anything wrong with that.
The photos: Capitola Annie style cat and Apocalypse style cat at Lake Shrine.
Oh no...this is a very very GOOD sign! Annie is trying to tell you that she wants you to love another cat. You must listen to her!!!

I think the kitties are calling you! I think you need one. Keep in mind, this is coming from the girl who still can't get another cat even though her kids ask every day!

There are no coincidences. Serendipity. Isn't there some Jewish superstition for this. My friend Liz and I believe in signs. It could just be the universe giving you comfort. It could be your cat saying hello in the only way it knows how,
