Cat

Cat Laws

• Always give generously. A small bird or rodent left on the bed tells them, I care.
• Climb your way to the top. That's why the drapes are there.
• Curiosity never killed anything except maybe a few hours.
• Find your place in the sun. Especially if it happens to be on that nice pile of warm, clean laundry.
• If you're not receiving enough attention, try knocking over several expensive antique lamps.
• Life is hard, then you nap.
• Make your mark in the world. Or at least spray in each corner.
• Never sleep alone when you can sleep on someone's face.
• Variety is the spice of life. One day ignore people, the next day annoy them.
• When eating out, think nothing of sending back your meal twenty or thirty times.
• When in doubt, cop an attitude.

Affection

Affection is responsible for nine-tenths of whatever solid and durable happiness there is in our lives.

 

~C.S.Lewis~

Roses

“But he who dares not grasp the thorn
Should never crave the rose.” 

~Anne Bronte~
