Today’s song association is a fun song called “Wild Thing” sung by The Troggs. The wild thing in question is our darling cat Sid. It all started the very first thing in the morning when he woke me up singing like Pavarotti. It simply meant – wake up mom my breakfast is late. Then he went out for awhile. When he came back he ran around a bit and then got very talkative with papa. After they finished rough housing I was hoping that he would go to sleep. Instead he kept following me around an meowing some more until he got a small handful of dry food. Then he lapped up his water and finally settled down. In the photo you can see the wild thing beside me on a desk upon which we have the other PC I use for watching movies or music videos. With his eyes shining he really does look like a wild thing.
"Wild Thing" is a song written by New York City-born songwriter Chip Taylor. Originally recorded by The Wild Ones in 1965, It is best known for its 1966 cove...

I think all that dashing and in the summer tree climbing is what keeps him young and spry @JudyEv

It fits him to a tee. I love this song. Have you ever played it for him?

Sid is adorable! He seems as wild as our Doodles, and just as talkative.

@RasmaSandra I have to warn you. Doodles is an alpha male and prefers his own company.

@DianneN Actually Sid is very much a loner too and so independent. Guess the two would make war instead of friendship.
