To Sleep; Perchance To Dream....

...there's the rub. Can one dream in the upright position?

"Oh sleep! it is a gentle thing,
Beloved from pole to pole...
~ Samuel Taylor Coleridge
Miss Chloe has discovered a patch of warm sun and is compelled to do what cats do best.... sleep. As she is our proper lady, all paws and tail are tucked in securely, yet she isn't curled up in a tight ball or spread out on her back, belly up. No, she prefers to sleep in the upright position; a serene soft sitting statue of grace and beauty. But is she really asleep? That is always the primary question. As all cats do, she sleeps with her ears open.

Miss Chloe is hurrying on over to board Friday's Ark at the Modulator today and she will have fun at the Carnival of the Cats on Sunday; the carnival is held this week over at Catymology. (end of post)
