Once upon a time, a gentle, sweet dove - the universal harbinger of peace - nestled contentedly among other ornamentation within the verdant evergreen of my yuletide tree. Pure in whiteness and softly feathered, she appeared again and again, each year growing braver and braver, perching on branches that reached lower and lower and lower...........
And that night there were predators in the fields......

Yet fear not! To those of us who believe, Christmas is a season of hope!
For it is written in the holy book that one day "the tiger shall lay down with the lamb."
(loosely translated from Isaiah 11:6)
Meow-y Christmas, everyone!
Are you trying to tell me that that beautiful orange creature harmed the dove? No! I don't believe you -- was probably just grooming it! Great pictures!
ReplyDeleteHe's just doing what he's programmed to do, but how sad! Funny enough, it was our orange cat who brought us the most "gifts" out of our three cats. Something funny about those guys...
ReplyDeleteCats truly do rule the internet! I could not resist this post :) Poor dove! lol
ReplyDeleteI thought for sure your blog title had a typo, but no! Gah! Poor dove.
ReplyDeleteOkay, now that was funny as long as it is at your house with your ornaments. :-)
ReplyDeleteLOL!!!!
ReplyDeleteAll cats are dangerous when Christmas ornaments are concerned. I once had some truly lovely feathered ornaments on a tree, and by the end of the festival, not one had a tail to speak of. They were just too much of a temptation to our mother and daughter couple!
ReplyDeleteLol!! And I think that is the first time I have seen more than a glimpse of Mickey :) cute post!!
ReplyDeleteWe are quite lucky that none of our pets even notice the decorations. Thank you for sharing your kitty tale with Make It Monday.
ReplyDeleteLOL! That's funny!
