Eat.

Drink.

Cats have their own agenda.

                         ~J. Masson

You can never have too many cats.

Cats have a contentment of the most natural kind, so natural that it appears to exist on a higher plane.  This is perhaps what cats are here to teach us, to live in the moment, so completely, with such absorption, that the moment lasts forever.        

                   ~J. Masson

                                                                                        ~J. Masson

The best place to bury a good  kitty is in the heart of her person.      ~BH Lampman

Cats always know whether people like or dislike them.  They do not always care enough to do anything about it.  ~  W Carriere

Dogs come when they are called. Cats take a message and get back to you later.  ~ Mary Bly

Cats have an emotional directness, a purity of purpose (or is it purposelessness)?  There is no compromise with the honesty of their feelings.   Here I am, every  moment of the cat says. Love me as I am, or not at all.       ~J. Masson

             

There are no ordinary cats.

Women and cats will do as they please, and men and dogs should relax and get used to the idea.

-Robert A. Heinlein

Get that lovin’ feline!

Time spent with cats is never wasted.  ~  Sigmund Freud

One cat just leads to another.
