A Book about Cats

This book had a few problems on LibaryThing. For some reason I couldn't catalog it, so it had to be entered manually. I started reading it a few weeks ago. I thought I'd lost it amongst my books but found it the other day under a fake sleeping cat, no joke.

#33 Feline Friends: A Cat Lover's Treasury (December 2007)

This was a birthday present from a friend. I loved looking at all the cats and read the quotes in this book. Pretty much everyone at home wanted to ooh and ahh over it as we're owned by two cats. I put some sticky notes on some of the pages I liked best. Theses are a few of the quotes I liked best:

"The cat was created when the lion sneezed." ~Arabian Proverb

"It's a very inconvient habbit of kittens (Alice had once said) that, whatever you say to kittens, they always purr." ~Lewis Carroll, Through the Looking Glass

"I love cats because I love my home, and little by little they become its visible soul." ~Jean Cocteau

"When I returned home at night, he was pretty sure to be waiting for me near the gate and would rise and saunter along the walk, as though his being there was purely accidental." ~Charles Dudley Warner

"Most cats, when they are Out want to be In, and vice versa, and often simultaneously." ~Louis J. Camuti
