Cats don't caress us — they caress themselves on us.
Antone de Rivarol
Cats Speak to poets in their natural tongue, and something profound and untamed in us answers.
Jean Burden
Watch a cat it enters a room for the first time. It searches and smells about, it is not quiet for a moment, it trusts nothing until it has examined and made acquaintance with everything.
Jean Jacques Rousseau
Quite obviously a cat trusts human beings; but she doesn't trust another cat because she knows better than we do.
Karel Capek
Most cats have trained their owners. When the cat meows before the refrigerator, the owner obediently opens the door and feeds the cat. When it meows at the back door, the owner is trained to let the cat out.
Leon F. Whitney
To understand a cat, you must realize that he has his own gifts, his own viewpoint, even his own morality.
Lillian Jackson Braun
I have been a cat lover all my life (have nothing against dogs except that they need a lot of entertaining) and have never quite been able to understand them.
Raymond Chandler
A cat knows how to anticipate. ...but a cat can't understand the concept of anticipation and therefore is unable to allow for it in other species.
Roger A. Caras
A cat refuses to be the object of sentimentality — if she doesn't want to be cuddled, that's it.
Samantha Armstrong
It is perhaps easier for a cat to train a man than for a man to train a cat. A cat who desires to live with human beings makes it his business to see that the so-called superior race behaves in the proper manner toward him.
Carl Van Vechten
The motions of the cat, being always governed by the most refined sense of touch in the animal world, are typical in quite a perfect way of What we call tact in the human world. ...a cat will walk daintily and observantly everywhere, whether amongst the glasses on a dinner table or the rubbish in a farmyard.
Roger A. Caras
It is said that cats are untrainable. That is not totally accurate. Appearances to the contrary, cats do pay attention to the instructions they receive. They listen closely to what you have to say and sometimes even wait for you to finish your sentence. They understand plain English as well as anybody. How else would it be possible for them to so uncannily do just the opposite?
