Cat: The only domestic animal man has never conquered.
Author Not Known
Cats hate a closed door ... regardless of which side they're on.
Lillian Jackson Braun
Cats like doors left open — in case they change their minds.
Rosemary Nisbet
No animal on earth is as capable of expressing itself as the cat.
William H.A. Carr
The cat, an aristocrat, merits our esteem, while the dog is only a scurvy type who got his position by low flatteries.
Alexandre Dumas
What cat was ever awkward or clumsy? Whether in play or in earnest, cats are the very embodiment of elegance.
Charles H. Ross
The domestic cat is a contradiction. No animal has developed such an intimate relationship with mankind, while at the same time demanding and getting such independence of movement and action.
Desmond Morris
Cat the hunter, the sorcerer, the incarnation of evil, exists side by side with the creature of angelic grace, the protector of the hearth, the hero of countless adventures.
Jean Burden
Since our housecat no longer has to hunt, she may spend hours dreaming and philosophizing. Perhaps when she sleeps, she dreams of the wild.
John Richard Stephens
All cats are possessed of a proud spirit, and the surest way to forfeit the esteem of a cat is to treat him as an inferior being.
Michael Joseph
Cats have an absolute imperative to survey their turf and check for intruders, and we are the door openers and door closers in their lives.
Roger A. Caras
