My kitty makes me smile

My kitty makes me smile

From All year, one of 308 sayings.

From Alfred’s journal

The gray cat from the blue house spent the whole afternoon under the feeder, not hunting, just lying in the sun with one paw folded under. For years I took her for the enemy and said so, loudly, from the gutter. Today I watched her roll onto her back for no reason at all and I laughed, which is not a sound I make often and not one a sparrow should make at a cat. My kitty makes me smile, and she is not mine, and I am the one thing in this yard she would eat. Switch came down the trunk, saw where I was looking, and went straight back up without a word. I do not know what to do with a fondness that would get me killed if I acted on it.
