Meatloaf!
Hi folks!
Just wanted to share a Perfect Meatloaf! http://www.cs.fiu.edu/~flynnj/kitten...tloaf.jpg.html Note how shiny his coat is. He's such a cutie... Yesterday he caught a lizard in the house! Who knows how it got in.. but it was well and throughly dead by the time I saw it... I guess indoor cats have to get their hunting time in at all costs, eh? } -Z -- Ned Flat: "Why are you acting like this??" Yakko: "We're not acting. We really are like this." Wakko: "Aren't we lucky?" ================================================== ==== Visit http://zorin.org/ for all your whiskery needs! |

Mischief and Mayhem like to meatloaf too.
You know I never heard that term until I came to this group. When I told my roommate she said, "Oh yeah, it's a term meaning they could fit in a meatloaf pan." I still find it puzzling to picture. Because when I grew up meatloaf was made in a small pan about 10 by 6 inches, one that a cat could NOT have fit into. maybe a skinny kitten, but no way could a cat fit into it. I totally use the term now, but it took me a while, since I couldn't grasp the picture. Kristi |

Kristi I'm not sure it has anything to do with a meatloaf pan so much as how they look with their paws all tucked up under them and their tail wrapped around. If they didn't have heads, they'd look a bit like... well... a furry meatloaf! G It would be rather insulting to say they look like a trussed chicken, which (I think) would be more accurate. But meatloafing is what they do. I love it when Persia meatloafs on my chest when I'm reading. But she can't resist reaching out a paw to tap me if I get too engrossed in the book and forget to give her some scritches, or, when I go to turn a page, to gently bite my elbow as a reminder "Hey, I'm still here. PURRRRRR." Jill |
