Cat Quotes Cat Quotes Page 13 "Just as the would-be debutante will fret and fuss over every detail till all is perfect, so will the fastidious feline patiently toil until every whiskertip is in place." - Lynn Hollyn "Another cat? Perhaps. For love there is also a season; its seeds must be resown. But a family cat is not replaceable like a wornout coat or a set of tires.

She don't say much, but you can tell enough to make you anxious not to hear the whole of it." - Jerome K. Jerome "The whir of a can opener or the bark of an unfamiliar dog...will send even the most deeply dozing cat bounding into the kitchen or under the bed." - Barbara L. Diamond "If you would know what a cat is thinking about, you must hold its paw in your hand for a long time." - Jules Champfleury "If stretching were wealth, the cat would be rich." - Unknown "Cats are smart. You know it and I know it." - Debbie Mertens "Many cats simply pounce to their own drummers." - Karen Duprey "Cats, like butterflies, need no excuse." - Robert A. Heinlein "The domestic cat seems to have greater confidence in itself than in anyone else." - Lawrence N. Johnson "Any household with at least one feline member has no need for an alarm clock." - Louise A. Belcher "Cats conspire to keep us at arm's length." - Frank Perkins "Theology is never any help; it is searching in a dark cellar at midnight for a black cat that isn't there. Theologians can persuade themselves of anything." - Robert A. Heinlein "When Mother Nature saw fit to remove the tail of the Manx, she left, in place of the tail, more cat." - Mary E. Stewart "The way to get on with a cat is to treat it as an equal - or even better, as the superior it knows itself to be." - Elizabeth Peters Cat Quotes Page 14 © 2001 - present.
