Cat wisdom declares
Hesitation is a fault
Unless caution calls

I'm more than cement
Guarding takes a brave lion
Wise gems from Shadow

OH my! I don't think I'd like to mess with either statue or Shadow! Great photo.
Cats never hesitate - but I've never known one killed by curiosity.
I so love that pouting statue, maybe he has some hesitation being sculptured into such a trying pose, cat muttered "this is really interesting"
Beautiful one Gemma!
same stare!
I enjoyed both your takes on the prompt. Especially the cat who believes hesitation is a fault; unless warranted. :)
Shadow is so beautiful! What a great photo to go with your words. I really enjoyed this. :~)
i don't know why but I am falling over laughing - something about the expressions
Being a cat lover, I really enjoyed this! Loved the photograph.
Great poem and Shadow is a beautiful cat!
Well, for sure, neither one of us will be messing with Shadow!! Wow! Look at that stare!! You are one powerful looking dude, Shadow!!

That's some of the better Cat Wisdom I've heard. But caution, like anything, can be overdone.
Incredible photo. Love the sculpture and the so-brave Shadow!
I totally love the first haiku. It's exactly what they do!
Andree's OSI: Hesitation
Ha! cats are full of hesitation sometimes (which is how they end up victim to cars, at times).
Well done.
cats just don't get enuf recognition from their minds...haha.. i've got four and they never cease to amaze me... dig the eyebrows..on both...
Isn't Shadow a beauty? So much to learn about trusting our instincts.
