Waiting Cats

I follow a bunch of historical photo archivists on Twitter, and I was fascinated by this one today. The place and time are unknown, but these cats are waiting for the fishermen to return. It reminds me of the old-style cartoons where a cat (Sylvester?) would pick up a whole fish and put it down his throat head first and then pull out a skeleton. That fascinated me too.

Amazing how they are lined up in such an orderly fashion. Wonder what it wasike when the fishermen arrived.

I was thinking of Stephanie with this picture, and how she might see it as sad, but I imagine that they got their stomachs full of fish and that the fishermen tossed them food. They all look healthy.

I am sure that they are healthy and happy but they have no home to go to be warm and cuddly. S.
