Cat Forum / Health and Behavior / September 2006nice little cat quote
"I simply can't resist a cat, particularly a purring one. They are the cleanest, cunningest, and most intelligent things I know, outside of the girl you love, of course". - quoted in Abroad with Mark Twain and Eugene Field, Fisher -- http://www.twainquotes.com/Cats.html It's a cool web page, there are also pictures of Marks cats Another Quote (eat your heart Jerry) "By what right has the dog come to be regarded as a "noble" animal? The more brutal and cruel and unjust you are to him the more your fawning and adoring slave he becomes; whereas, if you shamefully misuse a cat once she will always maintain a dignified reserve toward you afterward--you will never get her full confidence again". - Mark Twain, a Biography soparrishithurts wrote: > "I simply can't resist a cat, particularly a purring one.

I had no idea Samuel Clemmens (I may have spelled his real name wrong ...) was a cat man! I should have known.

Plus, I think you need to sweet talk a little fish to get that. How about some Italian meat balls? You could get some provolone and fresh sub rolls, you'd be set. It's my Mama's recipe so I know they're good. Lots of parmesan cheese in them, and you form them under a running faucet. No kidding, it keeps them tender. > AND as we all know, nobody rides for free, what do you want me to do > for you? > > you want me to kick somebody's tail for something? Let's not even go there.

The Beluga whale is a Cetacean, which means it's a mammal - and it doesn't lay eggs externally like bony fish (Class: Osteichthyes) do. Instead it gives live birth to (usually) a single calf. Just like you Momma birthed you! > dang, and what am I to do with all this pent up unmitigated hostility You can thump on that Bible of yours..... -L. > > no it come from a huge whale, it's the largest in size, and it's the > > most sought after caviar in the world [quoted text clipped - 6 lines] > doesn't lay eggs externally like bony fish (Class: Osteichthyes) do. > Instead it gives live birth to (usually) a single calf. Oh, man, I *knew* that! > Oh, man, I *knew* that! One of the cutest things I have ever seen in my life was a Beluga whale popping it's head out of the water and singing "me-me-me-me-me!" to us at Shedd Aquarium in Chicago, as we stood by the tank. I *hate* that people keep cetaceans in captivity and I no longer patronize such places, but DAMN that was cute! Little thing looked human! -L. > > Oh, man, I *knew* that! > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > people keep cetaceans in captivity and I no longer patronize such > places, but DAMN that was cute!

Keep it coming. Very entertaining. - Lou WILL BE IGNORED UNTIL THEY REFER TO ME BY MY NAME. "Lou B." <PElby@webtv.net> We can't hear you! Are you saying something? the laughter is to loud > WILL BE IGNORED UNTIL THEY REFER TO ME BY MY NAME. refer to who by their name?? Why are we supposed to refer to it by it's name? Does it have a name? And for your information, yes, we are all hideously deformed and our only social activity is laughing at weirdos on usenet....oh, Moderator, am I allowed to say that? Hi Sosessy! I like these quotes. Heck, I like ANY cool cat quotes from famous folks. :) I'm sure there are many more by Mark Twain. Winston Churchill was also a cat lover. I lived in England for a total of 7.5 years and stupidly I never visited his house. He had ordered in his will that a descendent of his favorite orange marmalade cat would continue to live on his property until the end of time and to this day, there is a resident marmalade cat who has the run of the place. I believe there are several other resident cats as well. Below is a link that tells a bit more of the story. http://www.flippyscatpage.com/churchill.html In my search, I found this link with loads of cat trivia, to include quotes. I have not looked at them yet. http://www.greatdreams.com/cats/cats2.htm Just wanted to share with fellow cat lovers. I have seven furry babies and if I had a bigger house I'd have more. :) My dream is to have a large home with a few acres out in the country and rescue cats. My vet bill would be expensive, but it would be worth it. Enjoy! Deeanna > "I simply can't resist a cat, particularly a purring one.

Anyone that would turn so many corners in one sentence had to love his own words and be fond of attention. > Winston Churchill was also a cat lover. > http://www.flippyscatpage.com/churchill.html !

It wasn't till abou the past 3-4 years that I myself have taken a real shine to cats in particular. I don't know that much about Churchill, what little I have caught, honestly there seemed to be a boyish pouting with him, it was a winning magnetic personality. All because of cats! lol The proof is the story you told, leaving his homestead to a cat? I love it. One could say... he just felt that passionate about animals, WC knew that he would be remembered partly by his love and extravagence towards animals.. one final contribution of good. > > Hi Sosessy! > > I like these quotes. Heck, I like ANY cool cat quotes from famous [quoted text clipped - 34 lines] > that he would be remembered partly by his love and extravagence towards > animals.. one final contribution of good. I've always loved animals in general. During my first 20 years had one cat that didn't last long because it had a habit of sleeping on my dads head. Had a few dogs that I loved. All German Shepherds. Didn't get my first cat until I was 25 and he's still with me today and I'll be 42 in November. Since Randy there's been Emily who came along with the SO in a roundabout way, and Cosimo who sadly only got 7 cat years.
