Social media can teach you things. For instance I have learned from a Twitter account called @bodegacats that there are such things as bodega cats. For the uninitiated, in parts of the US the corner store is known as a bodega. These corner stores frequently have resident cats. Hence bodega cats.

These cats seem to be a pretty common feature, a bit like cellar dogs in Australia. Some might remember a nice little book published a few years back recording a vineyard tour by each dog resident at the vineyard visited, with suitable portraits of the hounds in their domains. I checked just now and the book was called Wine Dogs and they even have their own website winedogs.com

So the Twitter account posts only pictures of cats in corner stores, doing cat style things lying around in among the shelves, on the register and so on. It’s quite endearing. And now I have my own offering from a little corner store at the Paddington end of Darlinghurst.

Here is the corner store, somewhat run down:

When I crossed the road coming up to the store I glanced up and thought hmmm someone’s dropped their jumper on the steps.

But it wasn’t a jumper at all 🙂

Way back in May this year I did a post on the black and white cat of the McElhone stairs, who had been a much beloved local institution. She was a well looked after street cat and spent most of her days sunning herself on the sandstone outcrop next to the historic Potts Point stairs. Always up for friendly interactions with passersby over the years, many people became very fond of her. In May I came to know that she had died, after 17 years living on the McElhone stairs.

There was a subscription held for a memorial and this update is to record the little plaque that was created and put on the sandstone ledge she frequented. It’s a modest little thing. Here it is:

Opposite the official memorial, beyond the railing to the stairs, an unofficial sketch of the black and white cat has been painted by who knows whom, and it has a charm all of its own. It is painted onto the base of the very large ventilation pipe next to the stairs. Here is a photo through the railing I took at night, so there are a few shadows in the picture which are cast by the support structure around the ventilation pipe:

With fondest memories of spirit animals in the urban world,

Late in the afternoon I decided it was time to do a kitty pedicure for Mollie Mouse, who has been visiting.

Here is a record of the event, with Mollie held baby style, she stayed quite still, and seemed quite trusting while I performed the operation.

I had actually been a bit sad over the weekend because I had to cancel an important first meeting as a result of circumstances completely beyond my control. If life was as straightforward as work….
