company. Two cats are a conspiracy. Three cats is an attempted takeover.
Four or more cats is a complete coup!

5 GOOD REASONS FOR
HAVING YOUR CAT NEUTERED
DID YOU KNOW... |
Images brought to you
by
'The smallest feline is a masterpiece.' Leonardo da Vinci
'Dogs come when called. Cats take a message and get back to you.'
'Of course, every cat is
really the most beautiful woman in the room.' Edward Verrall Luca, essayist

A morning kiss, a discreet
touch of his nose landing
somewhere on the middle
of my face.
Because his long white
whiskers tickled,
I began every day laughing.
JANET F FAURE |
| 'Dogs have owners.
Cats have staff.'
'In the
middle of a world that has always been a bit mad, the cat walks with
confidence.'
Roseanne Anderson

'Cats make one of the most satisfying sounds in the world: they purr ...
A purring cat is a form of high praise, like a gold star on a test paper. It
is reinforcement of something we would all like to believe about ourselves -
that we are nice.' - Roger A Caras
"Of all the [cat] toys available, none is better designed than the owner
himself. A large multipurpose plaything, its parts can be made to move in
almost any direction. It comes completely assembled, and it makes a noise
when you jump on it." -- Stephen Baker
Garfield: 28.03.86 - 12.06.06

CAT'S
RIGHTS
submitted by Jackie S Brooks (UK)
I AM THE CAT AND I HAVE CERTAIN INALIENABLE RIGHTS:
I have
the right to walk over your face anytime I wish, day or night.
I have the right to
observe and comment on any and all bathroom behaviour. Further, I have the
right to be highly offended by any closed door.
I have the right to
smell your shoes to determine if you have been fraternizing or cavorting or
frolicking with any highly questionable animals.
I have the right to
assist in any food preparation, cooking, cleaning or eating event that may
occur in the home.
I have the right to wake
you at three in the morning if I find the contents in my food dish are not to
my satisfaction.
I have the right to
tip over any water container I deem unsuitable for consumption.
I have the right to meow
at squirrels and birds that may dare to pass my windows.
I have the right to
inspect any grocery items that come into the home. Further, I have the right
to inhabit any paper bag or cardboard box that you bring home for as long as I
wish.
I have the right to nap
at any time and place I darn well please, without the distraction of being
called or moved just because you want to sit down, wash your hands or use your
computer keyboard.
I have the right to
assist in the changing of bed linens and to chase the phantom creatures that
hide beneath the sheets.
I have the right to look
aloof when scolded for mistaking your toes for one of those pesky phantom
creatures that hide beneath the sheets.
I have the right to
kill paper towel rolls that otherwise might sneak up on you at night.
I have the right to
sleep on top of any appliance that is warm.
I have the right to
your complete attention anytime you sit down to read or work.
And, finally, I have the
right to be loved, petted, pampered, and entertained, for, as you know, the
best things in life ... purr.
And, should you err in
your ways, I will graciously forgive you. After all, you are only human, but I
love you anyway.
Signed, The CAT

A Cat's Prayer'
Lead me down all the right paths,
Keep me from fleas, bees, and baths.
Let me in should it storm,
Keep me safe, fed, and warm.
Let the sun shine where I lay,
Keep me young so I may play.
And most of all ...
Bless the people I adore,
And guard me from the dog next door.

PRAISE FOR THE OCTOBER
2005 MEWSLETTER
Thank you very much for another wonderful Mewsletter. I look
forward to it each month, and this month was especially fine.
There is enough in it to be able to read at leisure over several
days, which sets it apart from many more compact sites, which
are finished in a few minutes. Your Mewsletter is more of a
digest, which I can go back to for something new over and over
again. I appreciate very much the work that you put into it,
and the contributions of all your feline staff. Thanks to
Ricky, I may even take up yoga.
All the best from rural Belgium, Jared Kline |
