Nothing is more important than felines, though some imagine wars
and pestilence share in that honor; yet cats are vastly superior to any war yet fought...unless the war was over a cat... "There is no snooze button on a cat who wants breakfast." ~Unknown~ "Thousands of years ago, cats were worshipped as gods. Cats have never forgotten this." ~Anonymous~ "Cats are smarter than dogs. You can't get eight cats to pull a sled through snow." ~Jeff Valdez "In a cat's eye, all things belong to cats." ~An English Proverb~ "As every cat owner knows, nobody owns a cat." ~Ellen Perry Berkley "One cat just leads to another." ~Ernest Hemingway~ "Dogs come when they're called; cats take a message and get back to you later." ~Mary Bly~ "Cats are rather delicate creatures and they are subject to a good many ailments, but I never heard of one who suffered from insomnia." ~Joseph Krutch~ "People that hate cats, will come back as mice in their next life." ~Faith Resnick~ "There are many intelligent species in the universe. They are all owned by cats." ~Anonymous~ "I have studied many philosophers and many cats. The wisdom of the cats is infinitely superior." ~Hippolyte Taine~ "There are two means of refuge from the miseries of life: music and cats." ~Albert Schweitzer~ "The cat has too much spirit to have no heart." ~Ernest Menaul~ "Dogs believe they are human. Cats believe they are God." ~Unknown~ "Time spent with cats is never wasted." ~Colette~ "Some people say that cats are sneaky, evil, and cruel. True, and they have many other fine qualities as well." ~Missy Dizick~ "You will always be lucky if you know how to make friends with strange cats." ~Colonial American Proverb~ "Cats seem to go on the principle that it never does any harm to ask for what you want." ~Joseph Wood Krutch~ "Dogs have owners -- Cats have staff"~Unknown~ We got rid of the kids. The cat was allergic. Cats regard people as warm-blooded furniture. It's my cat's world. I'm just here to open cans. Cats have over one hundred vocal sounds. Dogs only have about 10. |

. That one sure hits home with me. I have a Maine Coon cat who is too smart for his own good, and he sure has learned how to come running when my alarm starts beeping so he can "help" me wake up. His favorite method of 'helping' me wake up is to lick my toes or my neck - the darned cat learned my ticklish spots and uses the knowledge to his full advantage.

Oh, I love them all!!! I'm going to copy them for my daughter, who is another cat lover. I've got two cats, the bigger one is named Trouble, a yellow tiger with extra toes. The 2nd is her "sister", same Mama, different litters. She's called Jojo, the cat of many colors. She's a calico with a LOT of extra toes, front AND back feet. And all of those extra claws come in handy. She's the one who climbs the bathroom walls. It's got a textured wall paper, and several outward facing corners, just right for gripping and climbing!
Trouble just got spayed, and I was looking at the instructions, which say to restrict activity until the stitches come out. Yeah, riiigghht!!! As if that's going to work!

We've been able to leave the windows open except for today and yesterday...back into the 90's. Well my big fat cat Ranger had decided to sleep right next to me on the pillow and look out the window all night long. Friday morning, hubby let the dog out and when Poochy wanted back in, he came to my window with you know who sitting in it. I think Ranger left a wet spot on the pillow.
