2021: The Year of the Cats?

Well, it certainly wasn't the Geelong Cats' week leading into the 2021 AFL grand final replay between them and the Richmond Tigers, with the bad luck stories in the news of the tragedies that hit the club and its past personalities.

My TV set wrapped in my 2020 GF scarf Friday night:-) 

But ...

Geelong dismantled Richmond with a comprehensive 63-point thrashing in their first meeting since last season's AFL grand final.

It was a good game of footy Friday night, but I would rather have seen Geelong do that in last year's AFL grand final at the Gabba, when I was wearing that souvenir scarf I bought there -

Hopefully that will be the only time I'll have to pull my Geelong Cats scarf out of my bedroom drawer this year, as the only cats that I want to see holding the 2021 GF trophy are THE LIONS:-)

‘Pet’ tiger stalks Houston neighbourhood

"Up to 5000 tigers are thought to be in captivity in the US; an issue highlighted in the hugely popular Netflix series Tiger King.
In a statement about the incident, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, or PETA, said tigers are not pets and are often exploited and bred by owners.
“Tigers aren’t animal companions,” the animal rights group said. “They’re unpredictable predatory animals who shouldn’t be forced to live in someone’s home.”"
