"I know I don't have to sell you on cats.  

They grab our attention - and our hearts -

 and we never want to let them go. 

 We know that all it takes is one look at that regal body, 

one contented purr

 or the way they wrap their sleek bodies around our ankles, 

and we stop whatever we are doing to focus on them.

And they expect nothing less."

(from "The Secret Life of Cats)

Ten Commandments For Responsible Pet Owners  (from your cat)

1.  My life is likely to last 10 to 15 years.  Any separation from you will be painful...

2. Give me time to understand what you want of me.

3.  Place your trust in me - it is crucial for my well-being.

4.  Don't be angry with me for long, and don't lock me up as punishment.  You have your work, your friends, your entertainment.  I HAVE ONLY YOU!

5.  Talk to me.  Even if I don't understand your words, I understand your voice when it's speaking to me.

6.  Be aware that however you treat me,  I'll NEVER  forget it.

7.  Before you hit me, remember that I have teeth that could easily crush the bones in your hand, but I choose not to bite you.

8.  Before you scold me for being lazy or uncooperative, ask yourself if something might be bothering me..  Perhaps I'm not getting the right food.  I've been out in the sun too long,  or my heart may be getting old and weak.

9.  Take care of me when I get when I get old..  You, too, will grow old.

10.  Go with me on difficult journeys.  Never say, "I can't bear to watch it" or "Let it happen in my absence."   Everything is easier for me if you are there.  Remember,  I love you.....

"I once saw a kitty with wings on its back.  'Pussy', said I, 'Are you angel or cat?"  Then I saw the rest of the bird by a shack and said to myself, "Well, that answers that."

...Elaine Papa

"A cat has nine lives and nine souls, and it must also have nine guardian angels watching over it.  Which would explain why the little fellow is so smug."
