Have you ever wondered what it would be like if cats could speak? Or dance? Have you ever wondered what your cats do after the lights go out?
Have you ever given any thought as to how cats entertain themselves once they are very certain that you are fast asleep?
I had the strangest dream last night. It all began with a veil of puffy pistachio clouds drifting across a blue sky. Somewhere in the distance a mezmerizing tune was playing from an old-tyme nickelodeon. Within moments, as if by magic, the clouds parted and two of my cats appeared. Katzenberg looked quite dapper in his tuxedo, and Sabrina was attired in a ruffled gown that looked like streaks of pink cotton candy as she danced. After a while a little mouse appeared decked out in a yellow sequinned ballerina costume. As I remember it, Katz was trying to teach Sabrina a new dance, and the mouse kept interrupting.Upon awakening, I quickly realized that all of this was much more than a dream. At first I couldn't understand why the tune that belonged to the dream was still playing in my head. That is, I couldn't understand it until I passed the living room and noticed that the tune was actually coming from the vintage nickelodeon that we just purchased. And out of the corner of my eye, this is what I saw:
![]()
![]() | "A little more rhythm. Don't you have rhythm in your soul, Sabrina?" |
![]() ![]() ![]() |
"Like this, Katzenberg? Is this any better?" |
![]() |
"That's almost right. Loosen up a bit. Try moving your head to the music. Like this." |
![]() ![]() |
"Watch me, Sabrina. Move your head like this." |
![]() ![]() ![]() | "Who invited you, mouse? Go back in your hole." |
![]() ![]() ![]() |
"Ignore that mouse! Get behind me and watch my head from the back. And don't step on my tail! Sometimes you can be a bit clumsy" |
![]() ![]() ![]() |
"Hey, Katzenberg! Mr. Know-It-All! Who are you calling clumsy? I'll do this dance my way and have just as much fun, thank you!" |
Well, now you know the answer. Although my vision was blurred from sleep, I am sure of what I saw. Cats *can* dance... and maybe one day, when you least expect it, you'll be lucky enough to see *your* cat dance.
