1-30-20 What draws attention to a Blog? A cat or a new baby

A couple of years ago, I wrote about not knowing or understanding what draws attention and responses to a blog, especially when you check your postings to see how many people opened and/or “liked” what you wrote.

Last time, I said that what really seemed to command attention was my cat, Dash. It seems as though whenever I post a picture of him (and, yes he is pretty handsome), I get several likes.

But in the last week, a new posting has drawn far more attention that our cat.  A week ago we welcomed a new grandson into our world. The picture of our newborn Jake got more responses than anything else I have ever placed on my personal Facebook page.

Guess Dash will just have to accept that he is not as attention-getting as a newborn.

People feel obligated to say something about a baby or a new grandchild. But cats attract everyone in with their natural charisma.
