MANCAT MONDAY: DYLAN MINDING HIS P'S (WITHOUT THE Q'S)

These are pictures taken of Dylan last summer when stone kitty still adorned the front walk. Dylan is the squirmy sort who virtually never stops moving. He twists and turns and wriggles around and usually ends up in some furry interesting pawsitions. These are what he calls his “P Purrimer”.

In this series of photos his purrpetual motion allows him to demonstrate his mastery of the Letter “P” in many of its purrmutations. He had enough to handle with all that “P-ing” and never quite got around to his “Q’s”. Dylan said that’s because he really doesn’t like questions of any sort, and minding his “Q’s” would open up that purrobability. "Besides when you mind your “Q’s” you always have to take that damn “U” into consideration, too!” says he. This makes him wonder why the saying isn’t “Mind your P’s, Q’s and U’s” instead of just your “P’s and Q’s”.

I have to tell him “in life there are just some questions that have no answer” (thereby reinfurcing his dislike for the letter “Q”, as questions without answers are even worse than the questions themselves).

Anyway, Dylan is rather philosofurcal in such matters and pawnders the purrplexities of the cosmos. He’s happy, though, “‘cause mos’” of the words he knows begin with “P” and that’s as far as he’s gone in the alfurbet!
