As every cat owner knows, nobody owns a cat. The phrase 'domestic cat' is an oxymoron. That one is the cat. If man could be crossed with a cat it would improve man, but it would deteriorate the cat. The cat has too much spirit to have no heart.
Some people say that cats are sneaky, evil, and cruel.
True, and they have many other fine qualities as well. You can't get eight cats to pull a sled through snow. A cat is a puzzle for which there is no solution. As we all know, cats now rule the world. There is, indeed, no single quality of the cat that man could not emulate to his advantage.
