Wherever I go, cats inevitably follow, which I suppose is nice considering how much I like their company.

My surprise guest this weekend at Jane's Beach Fales was a wizened female tabby who took a liking to me and starting hanging around the balcony and sleeping on the mat inside the room.

This cat was a funny one. She would follow me down to beach (only a few feet away from my doorstep, but still adorable). When I put her outside she would climb back in through one the windows (you couldn't close them). She was insistent that sleep inside the room (I had to admire that). She was so old that when she opened her mouth to meow nothing would come out. It was very cute.
