Default Australian Cats

Australian cats, like Aussies in general, are competitive over achievers. Population wise, there are darn few of them, but, like their human counterparts, they have often shown endurance, courage and agility. At war or in peace, on the beach or in the desert, these cats are cool.

A little known fact: For the same reason that the water swirls in the opposite direction when a toilet is flushed in Australia, Australian cats always land on their backs when dropped.

Dunno, it worked ok and I always do a scan to make sure any links I post are clean. Probably just a lot of data.

Cats are cool but you can't herd them!
