The Tao of Doodle The Tao of Doodle by Melinda Nowikowski, Dayton, OH, USA Most cats we have renew our faith in the relationship between felines and humans. They aren't loyal like dogs are loyal, but anybody who's used to being around cats knows when they're happy and healthy. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure it out. For some people that's an affront. For cat people, it's a challenge and an absolute pleasure.
Punk is our little tortie rescue from last fall.
Mystery of mystires, someone had dumped her somewhere near my mother's house, and she'd taken up residence under Mom's back shed, eating off her compost heap and begging at the door for several days before we brought her home with us. Punk's name has slowly changed, since we brought her home in November of '99. Now, most of the time, we call her Doodle. Cats don't pick up a pencil and draw, but if Doodle could, I'm guessing she would. Lather, rinse and repeat, it's all the same to Doodle.
