A cat at Pere-Lachaise
A cat who took up residence near Jim Morrison's grave in the Pere-Lachaise cemetery in Paris. in the full knowledge that it was an excellent spot to receive attention. This week's entry for Friday Ark and Carnival of the Cats.
It is well worth it cherie. A gret place to spend a few hours.
Oh yes jmb. This one obviously knew a lot of people would go to Jim Morrison's grave, thus a lot of cuddles and ear scritches. Far more interesting than Jin's grave too!
Wow! great photograph, I have never quite made it to this cemetery!
ReplyDeleteCripes you even take cat photos in Paris!
ReplyDeleteShe even looks a bit "tie-dyed" which is apropos for Jim.
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute kitty. Did you reach out and pat it?
ReplyDeleteThat's a cat for you - always waiting at Doors.

ReplyDeleteNo longer the lizard king, eh!
ReplyDeleteThat's one way to get your lovin', come back as a cat! Jim was no dummy. :)
ReplyDeleteOhh yes Lisa!
ReplyDeletePere-Lachaise is my favorite place in Paris. And that cat ain't dumb, there's always a half-dozen or so "mellow" people at Morrison's grave.
ReplyDeleteIt is a great place Chris.. "Mellow" people with munchies? Doh!
ReplyDeleteI didn't notice that cat when I was there!
ReplyDeleteCome on, Jams, the cat in the foreground is a Rodin, isn't she?
ReplyDelete[Hm, will you forgive me? Seems I am (even) a bit (more) silly after my hiatus interruptus.]
And I got to stroke French pussy too EWBL!
ReplyDeleteIndeed Sean, it's Rodin's purrer! Welcome back Sean. Good to see you back again
