Cissi and Cassy lay next to Cissi's sausage-Christmas-tree.*

'Cissi darling',
purred Cassy,'have you made any New Year's resolutions?'

'
Resolution! Schmezolution!' meowed Cissi stretching her furry body to its full length', We're cats! What cat makes NewYear's Resolutions?'

'The two-leggeds do it all the time. And having a Christmas tree is not a very cat-like thing to do.'

'You're right. Well, the tree goes out tomorrow and I resolve to only live like a cat. There! That's mine. What's yours, Cassy?.'

'To never make any promises I can't keep!'

'Oh,' yawned Cissi closing her eyes.

Best wishes,
Anna

The cats seem wiser than most humans. :)

Like the line, "To never make any promises I can't keep!"

I don't make New Year resolutions as it's only once a year. We should be looking at goals all through the year. :)

It's a fun post, Anna. Happy New Year!

I suspect those two cats need to have a resolution to climb on the Christmas tree!

This was cute Anna!

Hope your 2012 is starting out filled with small joys and the dawning of new hopes!
