Marion from Nanaimo, BC, Canada
Very cute Lorraine. You're right cats are not dummies. Oh I get it, we are the dummies and your cat is trying to teach us something.

@Marion: Hi Marion, that's Kimmi, Kimmi doesn't like when she's misquoted ;) lol
jamesy from christchurch, New Zealand
Very good Lorraine Perhaps it should be retitled Humans are dummies for Cats

@jamesy: OHOH Kimmi would love you :) she's my oldest ...I have 2 others, I is camera-shy the other well I have to bargain for a photo, like play with the shoe lace with me and I'll stay still for 5 seconds....
@rem_la: Ma chatte Kimmi est tres intelligente :) Merci Rem!
@Zing: She's my poser, she loves to pose for the camera :) thanks for the visit Zing
@Kent: Thanks Kent, I appreciate it :)
@Daryl: Excellent question Daryl, I thought it was mine, but it's been proven wrong! :)
Richard_Irwin from Belper, United Kingdom

@djedfre: She is a sweetie, I'm very lucky, thanks for the visit Djedfre :)
akarui from Kagoshima, Japan
C'est la meme race de chat sur le livre... Ton chat semble se demander pourquoi tu viens de le mettre la :)
11 Oct 2008 8:00am
@akarui: J'avais pas le choix vraiment, c'est son livre a elle...;)
@Eleftheria!: Thanks a lot Eleftheria :)
Kylie Greenan from Richmond, Australia
Well, don't tell anyone but I think I may have viewed all the cats of today and you get my creative award for the challenge, this is too funny and such an amazing image... on so many levels my friend. Thank you for being part of the challenge and Happy Happy Caturday! God I laughed when I saw this. Amazing and congratulations!
11 Oct 2008 8:45am
@Kylie Greenan: Aren't you sweet, thanks a lot, Kimmi thinks they misquote her a lot, sigh..;) lol
marianne from France
ahhhhhhhh il est bien songeur ton chat, il n'apprécie guère de devoir poser !!!
un petit caprice de star, il aurait peut etre préféré une "loge" plus personnalisée ???
je vais vite voir chez Kylie, j'ai moi aussi participé au challenge !! mais je n'ai pas de vrai chat donc ...
11 Oct 2008 8:55am
@marianne: Kimmi Karamel est est tres mignonne et aussi intelligente, c'est son endroit preferee...she's the boss of me!
j'ai trouve ta photo tres genial lol ;) j'adore le tout et toutou
rose and photography from France
Les chats pour les nuls ? ça existe ???? En effet, ton chat n'a pas l'air de vouloir être pris en photo, il aime bien jouer sa star ! :) Ce n'est pas toujours facile de prendre nos amis les bêtes !
11 Oct 2008 9:01am
@rose and photography: Merci Rose je dois t'avouer que Kimmi est tres genereuse et me laisse prendre sa photo n'importe quel temps pas comme 2 autres chats qui se sauvent lol

11 Oct 2008 9:36am
@Hans: You're so sweet, thanks a lot Hans :)
Jannie from United Kingdom
Definitely not dumb. The puss is reading the book to see if he/she can teach you something!
11 Oct 2008 9:54am
@Jannie: She just bosses me around, she's boss of me, I admit without shame, lol hey sweetie how nice of you to visit ;)
dj.tigersprout from San Bruno, CA, United States

@dj.tigersprout: Aren't they the sweetest, I love them I have three, this one here is Kimmi, she's my oldest ... Thanks Dj! your kitten made me roar ;)
GJC from Kyoto, Japan
Ha, ha! Obviously this kitty is saying "it's all so simple so why doesn't she just get it!" Kitty will probably leave it open to the appropriate page for you.
11 Oct 2008 10:19am
@GJC: You are smart, that's exactly what she does...I've learned so much! thanks a lot GJC ;)
Francesc B. from région parisienne, France

@Michael Skorulski: She sure is lol thanks a lot Michael :)
Sammi from New Jersey, United States
This looks exactly like my grandma's cat! I'm surprised your cat knows how to read, Lorraine! That's a great accomplishment :)
11 Oct 2008 11:54am
@Sammi: Hey Sammi, Kimmi's my oldest, so she takes it upon herself to know everything, my second and most gentle is, Sammi, really she's a doll, all black and very camera-shy, my littlelest Mikey, is playful and won't stop for a photo unless I play shoelace with him first, I love my cats lol can you tell?
Judy from Brooksville-Florida,, United States
I love it ...... you, your cat and your imagination! Kylie is right, this is amazing!!! x
11 Oct 2008 12:02pm
@Judy: Gosh you're always so nice to me, thanks m'dear, and Kimmi here she's wonderful and one of three of my wonderful cats, the others: super camera shy x

11 Oct 2008 12:19pm

kathy from Indianapolis, United States
Great title, Lorraine! My daughter, Sarah, actually wrote one of the Dummie books.
11 Oct 2008 12:40pm

bluechameleon from Vancouver, Canada
This photo has just made my day...oh the humor and irony!

JJ from Jersey City, United States
LOL this is brilliant, so cute and witty
Happy caterday
11 Oct 2008 1:31pm
@JJ: Thanks a lot JJ, that's very kind, Kimmi is the real star here ;)
@Veronelle: Non...mais Elle, OUI lol elle s'appelle Kimmi, et c'est la plus grande, j'en ai 2 autres lol
Barbara from Florida, United States
What a laugh I had and look at that expression on Kimmi. She is a beauty and great model for the Caturday Challenge. Kylie titled this correctly "Challenge". Having that occasional image of our cat is easy but when we wanted an image for today it was jus that a Challenge.
11 Oct 2008 2:32pm
@Barbara: I'm a maniac lol seriously Barb I take so many photos of my 3 cats, I could never be stumped lol Thanks always ;)
Stephen Phillips from San Francisco, United States
Great, Lorainne - though completely absurd. Any cat person understands they come in to the world fully equipped to be the maddeningly independent beasts that they are. Saying that,I love your post.
11 Oct 2008 2:45pm
@Stephen Phillips: LOL Great comment Stephen, I know it, but Kimmi likes to rub it in, and makes sure I understand that she's the boss of me!
@amy: Glad you gotta kick out of it, but softly you know ;)
@saeed: She is wonderful, as are all my 3 cats lol tahnks alot Saeed :)
[suvni:R] from Brussels, Belgium
picture, title... so funny!! without any doubt, one of the best submissions for caturday!
11 Oct 2008 3:33pm
@[suvni:R]: That's a nice compliment SR, thanks, it's all my cat's doing, really, she's the star!
Dawn Sutherland from Phoenix, United States
Definitely the funniest of all the caturday pics. Great setup!
11 Oct 2008 4:06pm
@Dawn Sutherland: Thanks for the nice compliment Dawn, my cats crack me all the time lol
@baobab: yeah, she is :) thanks a lot Baobab!
Michael Rawluk from Williams Lake, BC, Canada
Too many cats on the web today :- 0 but this is so funny.
11 Oct 2008 4:59pm
@Michael Rawluk: Is there such a thing as too many cats? lol thanks a lot
Ron from Saint Louis, United States
Kimmi wins the prize for intelligence and posing! Great shot, Lorraine!
11 Oct 2008 5:17pm
@Ron: Thanks a lot Ron, she's a smart cookie ;)
@Morgane: Thanks a lot Morgane :)
Nina from Hamburg, Germany
Hi Lorraine, what a lovely cat, Kimmi is very cute... I love how she look at the book! :)

dobbino from Cape Town, South Africa
Very, very different from your normal postings - but just as intriguing! Rofl!
11 Oct 2008 7:01pm
@dobbino: Thanks a lot Rob, I appreciate it :)
Evelyne Dubos from Le Mans, France
La plus rigolote... et même s'il lit "les chats pour les nuls" (c'est ça ?? je crois reconnaitre la jaquette...), vu la tête qu'il fait il a pas l'air de tout comprendre !!!! :-))
11 Oct 2008 7:01pm
@Evelyne Dubos: Ah Elle comprend très bien, je t'assure et oui c'est ça...nuls, honnêtement, j'aurais choisi un autre mot ;) lol
DaveB from Exeter, United Kingdom
Nice shot Lorraine. (In other words, Wicked!) :)
11 Oct 2008 7:30pm

Ana Lúcia from Leiria, Portugal

11 Oct 2008 10:05pm
@laughingwolf: Nooooo :)
lisa v from Gawler, Australia
This one made me laugh, they are so much smarter than us most of the time.
11 Oct 2008 10:25pm
@lisa v: Kimmi thinks you're a smart human;) Thanks Lisa!
terrorkitten from Bath, United Kingdom
well I guess you always need a reference book for those moments of doubt!
12 Oct 2008 12:03am
@terrorkitten: She has no doubts Phil, she just doesn't like being misquoted ;)
magiceye from Mumbai, India

Fliss from Melbourne Beach, United States
Such a gorgeous moggy... great shot...
12 Oct 2008 12:05pm
@Fliss: Hey Fliss, Moggy, hey? didn't know that one lol
@laughingwolf: Kitties say what I say, and they say: no
marc j from France
je poste demain mon BALOU? C'est un cousin français, viens voir c'est stupéfiant!!!!
12 Oct 2008 7:44pm
@marc j: Merci Marc j, je vais y aller tout de suite...allons voir ton balou :)
eh oui, elles sont très belles tes photos d'automne :)
JoeB from Brampton, Canada
The cat doesn't look too impressed, an expression of a runway model on the catwalk, your just giving the title more power.
13 Oct 2008 1:05am
@JoeB: I like that, thanks Joe, nobody's going to sue my cat ;)
@Scotfot: She's very smart, and witty too ;) Thanks Bob!
@Ras: Thanks a lot Ras, I appreciate it :)
