unGato

the story as i stood, ready to take this photo, i hear a man, who is pointing to the tiger, tell his young son about "un gato". i giggled to myself, picturing my own mild-mannered tabby, with the aloofness and grandness of a queen, complete with all sense of entitlements, but who skitter-skatters at the slightest anything. imagining this commanding creature with kitty's bravado played like a cartoon in my head, as i admired the tiger and took the shot.
