When a Cat adopts you there is nothing to be done about it except to put up with it until the wind changes. The clever cat eats cheese and breathes down rat holes with baited breath. The cat is a dilettante in fur. What's virtue in a man can't be virtue in a cat. A pygmy lion who loves mice, hates dogs and patronizes human beings.
Some people say man is the most dangerous animal on the planet.
Obviously those people have never met an angry cat. If cats could talk, they would lie to you. The cat could very well be man's best friend but would never stoop to admitting it. If a fish is the movement of water embodied, given shape, then cat is a diagram and pattern of subtle air. No matter how much cats fight, there always seem to be plenty of kittens.
