Celestial Sundays - Just 4 ME

Hello MY Darlings!

Celestial Sundays are what it's all about!!!  Making time for ME!

Stars sleep during the day that is why we have DAYLIGHT!
Stars enable cats see even with their SPECIAL night vision!


To do absolutely nothing, simply EAT and SLEEP.  Turn off the computer, unplug the 'cat' phone. Steal your HUMANS WATCH!

Even the universe in it's celestial wisdom ...SLOWS DOWN.  I ordered MY HUMAN to write. SNOOZE - THANK YOU VERY MUCH.................ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ.


Let me radiate a little purr sequence for you!!!!

OH Momma that feels SO GOOD!
Celestial Night Patrol.....the eyes have it:

Fandango
[Wikepedia]- Cats have excellent night vision and can see at only one-sixth the light level required for human vision. This is partly the result of cat eyes having a tapetum lucidum which reflects any light that passes through the retina back into the eye, thereby increasing the eye's sensitivity to dim light. Another adaptation to dim light is the large pupils of cats' eyes. Unlike some big cats, such as tigers, domestic cats have slit pupils. These slit pupils [ did my human mean we have STARS IN OUR EYES - lol] can focus bright light without chromatic aberration, and are needed since the domestic cat's pupils are much larger, relative to their eyes, than the pupils of the big cats. Indeed, at low light levels a cat's pupils will expand to cover most of the exposed surface of its eyes. However, domestic cats have rather poor colour vision and (like most non-primate mammals) have only two types of  cones optimized for sensitivity to blue and yellowish green;

Did you say M I L K WITH THAT?

I'd like CHEESE with my order!
 they have limited ability to distinguish between red and green, although they can achieve this in some conditions.

 
SOUNDS OF SILENCE:  My human thinks I have SELECTIVE DEAFNESS???   Well MY DARLINGS that is her opinion not mine!!!  I choose to listen to certain frequencies THAT INTEREST MOI! 


Cats have excellent hearing and can detect an extremely broad range of frequencies:


Take me to your RADAR Hertz
They can hear higher-pitched sounds than either dogs or humans, detecting frequencies from 55 kHz up to 79 kHz, a range of 10.5 octaves; while humans can only hear from 31 Hz up to 18 kHz, and dogs hear from 67 Hz to 44 kHz, which are both ranges of about 9 octaves. Cats do not use this ability to hear ultrasound for communication but it is probably important in hunting, since many species of rodents make ultrasonic calls. Cat hearing is also extremely sensitive and is among the best of any mammal, being most acute in the range of 500 Hz to 32 kHz. This sensitivity is further enhanced by the cat's large movable outer ears (their pinnae), which both amplify sounds and help a cat sense the direction from which a noise is coming. [Especially if it's a PIZZA delivery] !

Diva KNOWS BEST....it's all about CATOPTICS!!

 One last thought:   Remove the watch and sleep!


Simply UNWIND




WELL MY DARLINGS............don't know about you ....I'm just CHILLING in MY Kingdom.................Ciao babio.

Books - The Cat's Meow

Hello MY Darlings!

After a busy day at my office counselling clients, I love to simply curl up with a catnip beverage and a 'good book'.   I keep a well stocked library and preferred reading list on my IPHONE.

As I have a broad range of eclectic books. I often love to delve into the universe of imagination, that's the 'cat's meow'.  Recently, I have stepped into the new arena of audio books! A new genre for me. I've always loved the smell of paper and feel of books. However, I find that my eyes get weary of late. So I simply plug in and listen instead...allowing the eyes to rest.

I was introduced through a friend to Nina Munteanu, well-known author, coach, teacher and scientist.  Her new audio book is awesome,
New SF Thriller Audio Book at IAMBIK
Available at IAMBIK
 A genius of metaphor! Dawn Harvey the actress is stellar!  Each night I am transported, drifting into a whole other universe.  Outer Diverse is part of an  SF trilogy about Rhea Hawke a Galactic Guardian who is on a mission to find out why a religious sect died (spell binding and cool).  Perhaps there is a family secret........you have to find out.......
 



Complete with a lemon-twist you will be riding on the tail of a comet.  Woo hoo!


I can hardly keep my whiskers quiet, wriggling with excitement.    Can't wait for the next book!



Treat yourself and let your imagination take you to new heights in the universe.!!


See you next time MY DARLINGS!  Happy reading!
