Daily Photo: The Rare and Precious Kitty Flower

Just like the blue forget-me-nots and yellow buttercups and pink cranesbill geraniums and my old pink pasture rose, a precious five-petaled black flower bloomed on my bed this afternoon.
I find it blooms most often on cool and cloudy days, and even sometimes in the winter.
In the photo below, Mr. Sunshine is in the middle and he is also one of the petals at about 12:00, then clockwise it’s Bean, Mimi, Giuseppe and Mewsette.

And below, a slideshow of the flowers mentioned above, taken in my yard under the supervision of several different kitties.

No WAY! How’d they *do* that? Allie won’t let us boyz near her to even attempt it!
Guys, boy cats can be a little rough, but your sister and your mom will always understand you!
Bloomin’ lovely!! 🙂
Carolyn, when they all get together they make something beautiful!
I can’t imagine how you got a picture of the cat flower
from above! It’s priceless!
I stood on my tippy-toes and held the camera over my head–and it took several shots to get it right! Thanks for visiting.
