Madame la M., <br /> <br />I totally agree with all the good things everybody has already said in this thread - we're extremely happy to have you here! Happy birthday!!!! <br /> <br />Oliver <br /> <br />By the way, I adore cats, at home we have a beautiful Chartreux cat (she's totally gray with yellow eyes - we call this kind the "Russian blue" - I'm not sure if those are one and the same breed), and now I have a perfect "excuse" to post the following: <br /> <br />"I got rid of my husband. The cat was allergic." <br /> <br />"One cat just leads to another." - Ernest Hemingway <br /> <br />"There is no snooze button on a cat who wants breakfast." - Anonymous <br /> <br />"Cats are smarter than dogs. You can't get eight cats to pull a sled through snow." - Jeff Valdez <br /> <br />"In a cat's eye, all things belong to cats." - English proverb <br /> <br />"As every cat owner knows, nobody owns a cat." - Ellen Perry Berkeley <br /> <br />"Dogs believe they are human. Cats believe they are divine." <br /> <br />"Dogs come when they're called; cats take a message and get back to you later." - Mary Bly <br /> <br />"Teaching 4th Graders is like herding cats." - Marian Wise <br /> <br />"Thousands of years ago, cats were worshipped as gods. Cats have never forgotten this." - anonymous <br /> <br />"There are many intelligent species in the universe. They are all owned by cats." - Anonymous <br /> <br />"I have studied many philosophers and many cats. The wisdom of cats is infinitely superior." - Hippolyte Taine <br /> <br />"There are two means of refuge from the miseries of life: music and cats."- Albert Schweitzer <br /> <br />"Time spent with cats is never wasted." - Colette <br /> <br />"No heaven will not ever Heaven be; Unless my cats are there to welcome me." - Anonymous <br /> <br />"Some people say that cats are sneaky, evil, and cruel. True, and they have many other fine qualities as well." - Missy Dizick... heh, heh, heh... <br /> <br />"You will always be lucky if you know how to make friends with strange cats." - Colonial American proverb <br /> <br />"Cats seem to go on the principle that it never does any harm to ask for what you want." - Joseph Wood Krutch <br /> <br />"Cats aren't clean, they're just covered with cat spit." - John S. Nichols <br /> <br />"Jerry dear said it was him or the cat.... I miss him sometimes." <br /> <br /> <br /> OWNER'S GUIDE FOR CATS <br /> - submitted by Sir Reginald Fluffy-Mittens <br /> ____________________________________________ <br /> <br />Cats are beautiful, sophisticated, intelligent creatures. And <br />with a little love and caring, they can keep a human being alive <br />for upwards of seventy to eighty years. If you follow these simple <br />instructions, you can have your human housetrained in no time. <br /> <br />CLEANLINESS: For some reasons, humans seem to enjoy immersing <br />themselves in running water. Attempts to get humans to lick <br />themselves clean have proven interesting, if unproductive. <br /> <br />COMMUNICATION: Humans are unable to speak a proper language. <br />Therefore, you should communicate a point loudly, repeatedly, <br />and if at all possible, at about three in the morning. Any <br />attempts at human-to-cat communication can be dealt with by <br />simply ignoring it until it stops. <br /> <br />FEEDING: Morning feeding should start promptly when your human <br />is fast asleep, preferably three or four minutes before the alarm <br />is supposed to go off. Recommended methods of waking your human <br />include: sitting on its face, screaming in its ear, and biting its <br />hair. <br /> <br />MATING: Human mating behavior is fascinating. Unfortunately, <br />humans tend to get easily spooked by prolonged study of courtship <br />rituals, and resort to shoe-throwing behavior. <br /> <br />TOILET TRAINING: A human's natural tendency is to not change your <br />litter box. Although experts in human behavior believe it can be <br />attributed to the "laziness reflex," this can be easily corrected <br />through what is called "shoe therapy." Just remember that a human <br />shoe looks a lot like a human toilet, and you should be fine. <br /> <br />Following these simple tips is the first step towards a long and <br />productive cat/human relationship. <br /> <br /> <br />
