This one was found begging outside Macy’s, in Union Square, San Francisco. Being a cat, he was doing it in comfort (naturally) and showed a typically feline disregard for the coins tossed into his stash.
Well, alright. He may have inclined his head slightly, in acknowledgement of my contribution. But there was a definite air of distain for the filthy lucre, and the necessity to acquire it. One could almost imagine that he had a servant to clean it for him before he could use it to buy his filet mignon.
Now I’ve seen everything! Maybe Javier could do that …

DP/Mommas last blog post..Three Things My Husband Knows
I wish my cats would do that – at least they would be contributing something to the household income! Looking all cute and cuddly is all well and good, but it doesn’t buy the catfood, does it?
Don’t Bug Me!s last blog post..Thirty strikes and you’re out – shouldn’t that be three?
I wonder what he does if someone tries to take his collection.

Jenny & DBM – Try pasting the picture on the wall near their bed?
DP/Momma – I’m scared of this one. I asked him and his eyes sparkled and he laughed. Damn, I’m in trouble!
.
I wish now I’d gone back across the road to take a long shot so you could see the little guy on the pavement with all the people walking past and the Macy’s doorway right there. He was just so cool!
Ruth Hull Chatlien – As I threw some coins in his tin, a voice called out ‘Thank you Ma’am’ from behind me. His owner was right there, keeping an eye on him.
Heh…typical haughty cat approach!

Hmmmm – what do ya think would happen if I put three Border Collies out there? Oh, never mind, they would just herd everyone who walked by
This is definitely unique and funny!

If they even get the hint that you want them to do something, they won’t do it. They are cats and that is what cats do – whatever they want!
Don’t Bug Me!s last blog post..Thirty strikes and you’re out – shouldn’t that be three?
Oh my goodness i love that and your story telling was fantastic
Lillis last blog post..Won’t you please scratch my belly?
Thanks, everyone!
MeleahRebeccah – Yeah, probably, but they might pay you to stop them doing it! LOL!
DBM – So, therefore, it suited that particular cat to be where he was and graciously allow people to give him money!
Whoa! That looks like a great trick! I only know how to do “High Five.” But I am learning how to play the (toy) piano. I never earned any moneys from my tricks though.
Daisy the Curly Cats last blog post..Monday Mystery: Solve the Riddle!
He is clearly begging for a new bed. That one is far too small. I’d probably give a cat money before some people.
JD at I Do Thingss last blog post..I Got Drunk so you don’t have to
Man, and I thought it was bad enough to have the squegee guys way back when harass you for chump change. Now even house pets are forced to beg for cat food money. Harumph! Lazy felines. They’ll probably just spend it all on catnip…
Mr. Nighttimes last blog post..A wish for words that work.
Oh, btw, I’m stealing that pic to send to my brother. He has a cat and I need to harass him.
Mr. Nighttimes last blog post..A wish for words that work.
Daisy – Hi and welcome! The High Five is a pretty good trick for a cat!
JD – You’re right, it is! He needs something better, doesn’t he? Maybe a four poster on wheels?
Mr N – ‘Spend it on catnip’! That made me laugh out loud! You want to send the pic to your brother? Permission granted!
Looks like my sweetheart a beauty for sure sandy
sandy ks last blog post..Where is that Sandy ??Time to Roll into town !!!
MY GOD! If I could get Sugarfoot and the rest of the hole in wall gang to do that, I’d not have to listen to Mac say “what, we out of cat food?” when I announce I need to go to the grocery store! Loved it!

Boy, SF has tons of homeless people, and I’m surprised that no body kills that cat and steal the money.
The Real Mother Hens last blog post..Chickypedia: Your Anatomy Is Exposed
Sandy – You have one like that? He’s a beautiful cat, for sure!
Sandi McBride – Thanks! Keep working on that training! LOL!
RealMotherHen – Well, the owner was right there behind me, so I guess he was keeping an eye on the little guy. You’re right though, I’ve never seen so many street beggars pushing right out in front of us as in SF. Not even in DC.
How cute is that. Shucks I need to be out there myself.
