I have felt cats rubbing their faces against mine and touching my cheek with claws carefully sheathed.
These things, to me, are expressions of love.

About Me
- A Brit in Tennessee
- Tennessee, United States
- A British expat transplanted into the lush Tennessee countryside. Wife, mother, grandma. The other character in this plot, being Oliver the cat, gingerness and aloof. I'm a lover of old. Time-worn, antiques, quilts, primitives, heirloom pieces, potting sheds, English literature, poetry, Battenburg lace, blue willow, cottages, white ironstone dishes, English transferware, worn-out picket fences, teapots, old bird houses, moss-covered clay pots, gardening, all creatures great and small. "And they loaded up their trucks and they moved to Tennessee....hills there are, swimming holes, country stars".

Cats are such sweeties.
Somebody is sure sleepy. <3.
Such a beautiful kitty! There is nothing like a cat to make you feel loved:-)
I can hear Oliver purring in that picture... :-)
I have felt those same claws on my face, and it really is an expression of love!
There's my boy! Good to see you, Oliver.
So sweet the love of a cat. Love your quote, picture, and music.

Jo, I think your cat is so pretty and loving. xoxo,Susie
A wonderful photo of a great cat. I liked the quote also.
Hi Oliver
love

He is gorgeus.
I loved James Herriot's work. His books were wonderful and the TV series were amongst the best ever made. He was a really lovely man.
Did you see the new one called The Young James Herriot? I really enjoyed seeing him in his younger student days.
Um..'scuse me.
I've scrolled forever but can't a way to follow this blog.
I'd like to.
Thanks.
I just love James Herriott. I think I may dig out one of his books and read it this evening.
