enough to bring him something tasty as he always had his cup of tea with Keith\u2019s Dad at that hour of the morning.\u00a0 Smoko breaks, between shift breaks, lunch breaks, tea breaks \u2013 Whitey was in attendance at all ceremonies.\u00a0 He worked like clockwork just like those who frequented the truck yard every day.\u00a0 Yes sirree \u2013 Whitey was the Yard\u2019s cat \u2013 everyone loved him and he absolutely loved being the boss there as well.\u00a0 When I have asked Keith on occasion what memories do you have of Whitey \u2013 he always says to me \u201cwell I know he was always taking over \u2013 he ran the show!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>So if you think that a cat cannot be trained to live side by side in the world of humans, then think again.\u00a0 Keith had a very well-trained cat for many years until he got a little too old and once day missed his footing around the 32 wheels of the big-rigs around which he worked \u2013 you can guess his demise from those few words.<\/p>\n<p>Do you like to sleep in?\u00a0 Do you have a cat?\u00a0 I am not sure whether sleeping in and having a cat are two things that go together well.\u00a0 It\u2019s like when you bring home the new human baby and you just presume that it won\u2019t be long before life returns to normal.\u00a0 Which reminds me of a cousin we visited soon after they had their first child.\u00a0 Previous to this momentous change in their lives, they had both been avid skiers \u2013 travelling the world to the renowned ski spots thoroughly enjoying their chosen sport of fun, pleasure and lucrative income.\u00a0 They used to teach skiing to patrons who were attracted to the mountains in every country they headed for \u2013 they had an ideal SINGLE life as a married couple \u2013 no encumbrances, no commitments other than to each other \u2013 life was truly fun.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/debzebooks.com\/amis-de-chat-2\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Debbie
