FOR SIGNS SIGNS
For years, we've walked or driven by this home-made sign at the end of a driveway near where we stay in the summer. We see plenty of kitties in the neighborhood, but I've never seen a single cat in the yard where the sign is.
Every year I think, "I should post that sign for Lesley's Signs Signs meme, but it would be so much neater if only there were a cat near it -- any cat at all." -- An old cat, a young cat, or even a spoiled cat.
But no cats ever showed up there.
They still haven't, but this year I decided to put some cats near the sign through the magic of Picasa.
All of these kitties were photographed in our RV Park or on the street where the sign is (but not in that yard).

Love the sign - and you found some great substitutes!
I apologize for the late visit - I'm taking a break from packing to move.

What a funny sign. Wouldn't work at my house - my two girls are not allowed outside for fear they would become a coyote or owl's dinner. They do have a screened-in porch from which to safely enjoy the outdoor breezes and smells.

I love that sign! However, I don't need one since neither of my two cats are allowed outside.

That's cool. I've never seen a warning sign for cats.

Sweet selection of kitties!

Hi Sallie, love all the cats. Great idea to use picasa. I guess the cats are not reliable at all. Hope you are having a great week.

Great sign - and how just like a cat to be nowhere in sight!

Love the sign and the presence of cats (even if photoshopped) just makes it.

That was probably a sign of a cat shelter. Anyway you did a great job ! You are always very welcome to link to my Cat's on Tuesday posts, even if it is occasionally, there are no rules !

Fun post. I want to get a sign I saw circulating on the web that said, Forget the Dog - BEWARE of the HUMAN. I don't know why this cat sign made me think of that since the idea is totally different.

I like the sign and I like the cats - but - you don't have a pic of a Siamese cat! Maybe I should go and photograph mine!!

Great post for Lesley's sign meme but, you should hop over to Gattina's My Cats meme and link up this post there as well. She would love having the visitors.

Your sign is fantastic.

A very thoughtful sign! I wonder if intends to be a neighbourhood kind of sign! Although, I guess that doesn't explain the spoilt cat! An interesting one!

Love it! When you can't get the real thing, there's always the magic of PS (or Picasa in your case).

Love the sign - and the way you provided the cats!!! Very very clever!
Posted by: Clytie | July 18, 2012 at 02:04 PM
that works! gathered your own herd o' kitties. :)

Love the sign! We all know how finicky cats can be.
Happy day to you, Sallie :)

I like that you filled in the cats for us! Thanks!

Typical of a cat not to cooperate with you by posing near the sign. Good post!
Posted by: RedPat | July 18, 2012 at 12:06 PM
Oh aren't you clever! Those are some very pretty cats!
