Bed Pals

Scoop and Au in bed

I was thinking about memes but since it's been years since I read Dawkins, and the old brain isn't what it used to be, I had trouble getting my mind around the idea. To my mind there is no doubt cats have culture, and that culture is transmitted. Scoop and Au are constantly teaching each other new things.

For example, Au has this enchanting habit of sitting with his tail on your foot and looking up with half closed eyes when he's asking for something (usually ham but sometimes just a game or a cuddle). Scoop has always just walked up and given us his demands with a loud MEEE-OW! But now Scoop also does the tail on the foot manoeuvre; and what's more, he's realised it works just as well for him as the shouting so he'll go on doing it.

Is this transmitting a meme? I can't decide! You tell me...

PS It's been pouring with rain here every afternoon, so Scoop and Au are indoor cats at the moment. And don't they make themselves comfortable!

Tagged!

We've been tagged for the first time ever. Sharlene and her Spice Cats have challenged us to give 5 Reasons Why We Blog. So here goes:

1. Because cats demand their part of cyberspace along with their bit of the sofa.
2. Because Scoop and Au adore talking to cat fans.
3. To raise awareness so that new cat lovers understand a bit more about cat thinking.
4. Because only the Net is big enough to showcase Scoop's curly tail and Au's fat tummy.
5. Because it's fun to tap keys and chase the mouse and watch stuff change on screen.

And now I'm tagging:

mind-graffiti Home of Mobee!
New Cats On The Blog Horatio loves his show kitties...
See Ming's Big Planet No cats but lots of rocks and travel pics.

PS: for some reason this one post won't allow comments. Don't ask me why; it's the mysterious way of software. You can comment on all other posts though. Sorry for the inconvenience.
