One of the reasons people love cats is their independence. It reminds me of the saying that getting US Senators to agree on anything is like “herding cats.” Cats have a mind of their own.

Just because you (human being) are working on a deadline at your keyboard, that doesn’t mean it’s a poor place for me (cat) to come and stand there purring. After all, you’re the one who’s taking up space on the desk.

And just because you’re propped up in bed having a bowl of cereal with milk, that doesn’t mean there isn’t a perfectly good reason to pounce, unseen, from several feet away. Milk is milk, my friend.

(I better not get started on cats.)

Anyway, while you’re here, take a look at our feline-themed stuff. There’s more on the way. Drop in soon again.
