LOOKS LIKE RAIN


Pompon predicting the weather, right on the mark. We should have named him Torricelli, even his whiskers are frizzing.

Vocabulary
un Sacré de Birmanie:  a Birman cat, one of France's favorite cat breeds
la pluie:  rain
la prévision météo:  weather forecast
les moustaches:  whiskers
friser:  to frizz or curl

Expression
Lorsqu'un chat se lave derrière l'oreille, c'est qu'il pleuvra bientôt.
"When kitty washes behind her ears, we'll soon be tasting heaven's tears."

  1. Hi Patti,
    Your cat is beautiful, and how wonderful he can predict the weather! We also have a cat, named Me-Meow, she was found abandoned when she was only a couple of weeks. Unfortunately she can't predict the weather! She can however tell us when she wants to eat lol, She will meow until her dish is in front of her!

  2. Thanks! It's actually raining right now--the day of photos and posting. Pompon was right and our old barometer still works!
