Yesterday, I shared with you here on #monomad a post with a lot of photos of dogs on the streets of my town and on the doorsteps of the houses. In the text that accompanied that post, I told you that I had gone out for a walk through the streets during the morning of yesterday, Monday, and that there were practically no people on the streets because of these days in August, when there are school vacations and the townspeople seem to start waking up later in the mornings. But I also told you that, besides many dogs, I found just as many cats and I had likewise taken many photos of them, and well, these are the photos of those other, also charming animals. So charming as far as I am concerned, that I even feel a bit uncomfortable calling them "animals" because for me they are very close souls, rather as if they were something like angels in those shapes, as if they were around to make us better... I like to talk to them, it seems to me that they understand a lot of what one thinks... But anyway, I don't want to seem more strange to you than I already usually do 馃槀, so here are my photos for you today on #Hive...
El d铆a de ayer compart铆 con ustedes, aqu铆 en #monomad, una publicaci贸n con un mont贸n de fotos de perros en las calles de mi pueblo y en los umbrales de las casas. En el texto con el que acompa帽茅 dicha publicaci贸n, les cont茅 que hab铆a salido a caminar por las calles durante la ma帽ana de ayer lunes y que pr谩cticamente no hab铆a personas en las calles por ser estos d铆as de agosto, cuando hay vacaciones escolares y la gente del pueblo parece comenzar a despabilarse m谩s tarde en las ma帽anas. Pero tambi茅n les dije que, adem谩s de muchos perros, me encontr茅 con igual cantidad de gatos y les hab铆a igualmente hecho muchas fotos; y bueno, estas son las fotos de esos otros animales tambi茅n encantadores. Tan encantadores, en lo que a m铆 respecta, que hasta me siento un poco inc贸modo llam谩ndoles "animales", pues para m铆 son almas muy cercanas, m谩s bien como si fueran algo as铆 como 谩ngeles con esas formas, como si estuvieran alrededor para hacernos mejores... A m铆 me gusta hablarles, a m铆 me parece que entienden mucho de lo que uno piensa... Pero en fin, no quiero parecerles m谩s extra帽o de lo que ya usualmente parezco 馃槀, as铆 que aqu铆 est谩n mis fotos para ustedes hoy en #Hive...
I enjoyed equally having both dogs and cats practically "just for me" during my street wandering of that yesterday Monday morning. The truth is, at this stage of my life, I have already learned to love cats and dogs equally despite their notable differences regarding the way they interact spiritually with me and I suppose with many other people too...
Disfrut茅 a partes iguales de tener tanto perros como gatos pr谩cticamente "solo para m铆" durante mi deambular callejero de esa ma帽ana de ayer lunes. La verdad, a estas alturas de mi vida, ya he aprendido a amar igual a gatos y perros a pesar de sus notables diferencias en cuanto a la manera como interact煤an espiritualmente conmigo y supongo que con muchas otras personas m谩s...
It seems to me, or rather I "feel" that when I am in front of a cat, I need him more than he needs me... But with dogs exactly the opposite happens to me and I end up feeling as if they needed more interaction or protection from me than I from them. But, as I said before, to me both creatures seem fascinating and necessary... And here, writing this, I will take the opportunity to name our friend and talented #Hive author 
A m铆 me parece, o m谩s bien "siento" que cuando estoy enfrente de un gato, yo necesito m谩s de 茅l que 茅l de m铆... Pero con los perros me ocurre exactamente lo contrario y termino sinti茅ndome como si ellos necesitaran m谩s interacci贸n o protecci贸n de mi parte que yo de ellos. Pero, como dije antes, para m铆 ambas criaturas me parecen fascinantes y necesarias... Y aqu铆, escribiendo esto, aprovechar茅 para nombrar a nuestra amiga y talentosa autora de #Hive
