A Very Fine Cat

Shot with Olympus E500
I don't think I've ever shown you Hodge, Samuel Johnson's cat (or a 1997 interpretation of the same). You can find him in Gough Square, by Johnson's House, one of London's most curious places. He sits on Johnsons' dictionary, with the oysters fed him by Johnson, according to Boswell.

Even the cat seems to echo Johnson's famous addage: When a man is tired of London, he is tired of life.
