Fascinating Kalie


Here is the fabulously, fascinating feline, Kalie. Everyday you can hear the people coo with sweet adoration for Kalie, the Kween of 37th and Hawthorne. "She looks like my old kitty..." or "...I had a cat one time that looked just like her."
I wonder what the fascination is much of the time..but I am from the farm and cats were cats when I was growing up. Now they seem to be almost human or at least hold the majestic and mysterious power that once was worshiped by some Egyptians.
Kalie can certainly stop the busiest of pedestrian that strides by our house in an "I need caffiene, now!" blur to get a Starbucks by just delicately sitting on the fence by the sidewalk while licking her petite little paws. Halting in their tracks with shrieks of delight..they immediately stop and say,"Oh, look- it's a KITTY. You are sooo-oooo cute."
How lucky they are to be allowed to touch and pet and be apart of Kalie's life. After all, she is the Kween.
Oh, yeah--and remember the lady who wanted to buy this version of Kalie- she still hasn't picked her(the painting) up. So she (the painting) is available again for anyone out there who understands the Kalie-cat phenomenon.
