Don't know if this is just a sick coincidence but....

2007 - Chinese year of the Chicken - Bird Flu Pandemic devastates parts of Asia

2008 - Chinese year of the Horse - Equine Influenza decimates Australian racing

2009 - Chinese year of the Pig - Swine Flu Pandemic kills hundreds of pigs around the globe.

Has any one else noticed this???!!!!!!!!!!!!!

****

It gets worse........

next year......

tincat......Its all down to 'Feng Shui' :)




Position these cats facing an entrance or by a window in your home so the cats can attract good feng shui into your house.

These Lucky cats are also often displayed on a high 'lucky 'shelf facing a window or door in business premises as they are considered to be very auspicious by Chinese business people. And also can be use as a piggy bank.

And there i was, thinking they were waving just because they were pleased to see us :)


Bad News about being no year of the cat ..:(

Tradition says that Lord Buddha had called for all the animals to come to him before he departed from the earth.
When the cat got to know about the news, he told rat about it and the two animals decided to go together the next day. However, the next morning the rat did not wake up the cat.

Therefore, the cat could not make it to the gathering on time and did not get a year. This is why there is no year of the cat and this is one of the reasons why cats hate rats...... awwww bless.

The good side to it though....if ynots theories are right.....Wooooohoooo the cats are safe!.....puuurrrrrfeeeect for you hun :)
