Dogs come when
they are called; cats take a message and get back to you.

I said
something which gave you to think I hated cats. But gad,
sir, I am one of the most fanatical cat lovers in the
business. If you hate them, I may learn to hate you. If your
allergies hate them, I will tolerate the situation to the
best of my ability.
-- Raymond Chandler
1888-1959, American Author
Your rat tail
is all the fashion now. I prefer a bushy plume, carried
straight up. You are Siamese and your ancestors lived in
trees. Mine lived in palaces. It has been suggested to me
that I am a bit of a snob. How true! I prefer to be.
-- Raymond Chandler
1888-1959, American Author
One cat in a

If a fish is

Cats always
seem so very wise, when staring with their half-closed eyes.
Can they be thinking, ''I'll be nice, and maybe she will
feed me twice?''
