This was emailed to me last night and I wanted to share it with all of
you. I am not sure who the author is.

Cat Physics

Law of Cat Inertia:
A cat at rest will tend to remain at rest, unless acted upon by some
outside
force, such as the opening of cat food, or a nearby scurrying mouse.

Law of Cat Motion:
A cat will move in a straight line, unless there is a really good
reason to
change direction.

Law of Cat Magnetism:
All blue blazers and black sweaters attract cat hair in direct
proportion to
the darkness of the fabric.

Law of Cat Thermodynamics:
Heat flows from a warmer to a cooler body, except in the case of a cat,
in
which case all heat flows to the cat.

Law of Cat Stretching:
A cat will stretch to a distance proportional to the length of the nap
just
taken.

Law of Cat Sleeping:
All cats must sleep with people whenever possible, in a position as
uncomfortable for the people involved as is possible for the cat.

Law of Cat Elongation:
A cat can make his body long enough to reach just about any counter top
that
has anything remotely interesting on it.

Law of Cat Acceleration:
A cat will accelerate at a constant rate, until he gets good and ready
to stop.

Law of Dinner Table Attendance:
Cats must attend all meals when anything good is served.

Law of Rug Configuration:
No rug may remain in its naturally flat state for very long.

Law of Obedience Resistance:
A cat's resistance varies in proportion to a human's desire for him to
do
something.

First Law of Energy Conservation:
Cats know that energy can neither be created nor destroyed and will,
therefore, use as little energy as possible.

Second Law of Energy Conservation:
Cats also know that energy can only be stored by a lot of napping.

Law of Refrigerator Observation:
If a cat watches a refrigerator long enough, someone will come along
and take
out something good to eat.

Law of Electric Blanket Attraction:
Turn on an electric blanket and a cat will jump into bed at the speed
of light.

Law of Random Comfort Seeking:
A cat will always seek, and usually take over, the most comfortable
spot in
any given room.

Law of Bag / Box Occupancy:
All bags and boxes in a given room must contain a cat within the
earliest
possible nanosecond.

Law of Cat Embarrassment:
A cat's irritation rises in direct proportion to his embarrassment
times the
amount of human laughter.

Law of Milk Consumption:
A cat will drink his weight in milk, squared, just to show you he can.

Law of Furniture Replacement:
A cat's desire to scratch furniture is directly proportional to the
cost
of the furniture.

Law of Cat Landing:
A cat will always land in the softest place possible.

Law of Cat Disinterest:
A cat's interest level will vary in inverse proportion to the amount of
effort a human expends in trying to interest him.

Law of Pill Rejection:
Any pill given to a cat has the potential energy to reach escape
velocity.

Law of Cat Composition:
A cat is composed of Matter + Antimatter + It Doesn't Matter.

Me too!

Hard to find the law that is abided by my clowder the most, but this
one stuck out to me as the main law of my biggest, and heaviest:

> Law of Cat Sleeping:
> All cats must sleep with people whenever possible, in a position as
> uncomfortable for the people involved as is possible for the cat.

Aka "Tyche's Law?"

Well I never imagined Smokey was a physicist.  I always thought him
more the feline equivalent of a hobo/bag lady.
