The world is a cat toy. To the cat, the experimenter is problematic. You can't look at a sleeping cat and be tense. You can't get eight cats to pull a sled through the snow. You own a dog, but you can only feed a cat.
Dogs come when called.
Cats take a message and get back to you. I put contact lenses in my dog's eyes. They had little pictures of cats on them. Then I took one out and he ran around in circles. Letting sleeping dogs lie, sleeping cats fry.
