Tranquility is a sleeping pussy cat.....

This is Lily, she walked out of the bushes at the top of my garden a few years back in a very sorry state indeed. One of the many cats that at some stage through whatever circumstances find themselves homeless and unloved.  It only took me a few days quietly talking to her to win her trust, lets face it, animals are no different from humans in that respect, they just want to be loved. She wasn't a kitten by any means and I have no idea how long she'd been living rough, from her condition I would say a long time. It made me very happy to know that at least for the last three years of her life she was queen of her domain.....

p.s. I know I'm a day late with the 'tranquility' theme, but at this time of the year when the weather's going up and down like the stock market (I was going to put in a little more risque comparison, but wasn't willing to take the chance of offending anyone haha!) dreaded lurgy's abound and I've spent the last two days abed not feeling 'the tranquil vibe'! On the mend and looking forward to catching up with soothing images from  around the world.  Click here to view thumbnails for all participants
