Bad Cat

Bird, Porto Mediceo, LivornoI had a casual encounter with the local representative of the Birds Against Moby organization.Moby Tommy ferry, IMO 9221310, LivornoOur friend is concerned about the discomfort and the anguish the feathered critters suffer watching, on the sides of the Moby ferries, daily images of giant cats chasing defenseless birds.
They strongly suggest that cats must be depicted in more positive and respectful attitudes toward birds.

Well we all know that Sylvester seldom catches Tweety and when he gets close something bad happens to the cat. I think the birds are all aware of that. Writers have feathers you know. MB

I think that particular cat is only interested in yellow birds.
Lovely post!

I can almost see it now, you listening to the sparrow and trying to keep a serious face. :D

Of course! Even our feathered friends deserve to be treated with political correctness... (excuse me while I run to the bathroom...) :-D Interesting looking bird, by the way...

Great bird pic, and a hilarious story about it! I believe they also will appreciate if we stop calling a photo "a shot".

I agree! My little Luna has some birds friends and in our balcony in Brazil she used to be very happy with a special friend, a cute hummingbird, every morning to say hello!

@ Francisca - As you may guess, I'm not a great admirer of political correctness... I just try to behave, but sometimes it's hard!

@ Svenske Floyd - You are right!

Francisca said...

@VP - You and me both. Right up there with "group think"... yuck! And yes, I've only followed you a few weeks, but I'm quite certain you're the authentic straight-shootin' type of guy! Just tell it like you see it, VP... I bet I can handle it. :-)

The bird looks very tough I think.
