Today was a good day.
Applied for an internship at a PR firm (exciting!)... met with Eleanor (the wonderful, sweet, older woman I visit through Encore Community Services) and had a lovely bike through Central Park.
My hubby and I encountered something funny (and cute) in Central Park... a man trying to train his (ahem... snobby) cat to respond to commands.
Kudos to the guy for being patient.
So... to paint the picture, he had his cat on a long, long yellow leash. The cat was sitting up on a high ledge, just scowling at the guy, like really scowling. And literally not moving at all, despite the man's repeated attempts to get the kitty to "come." Tys and I probably watched for 20 minutes, and although this cat was in arms reach (I would have just yanked on the kitty's leash until he came... but then again I don't think I would have my cat on a leash in the first place...) the guy was so patient. Eventually he offered the cat a treat and the cat maybe moved two inches. Poor guy. Even though Tys said we weren't leaving until the cat left, we ended up ducking out of the fascinating cat training session early. So... we never found out if the cat ever responded, but I guess we can just hope we'll see this guy again on our next bike ride.
