Cat Forum / General Topics / January 2004If you had a million dollars
If you had a million dollars what would you do for your cat or the good of cat kind?

[quoted text clipped - 10 lines] >them... not to mention a big pile of tuna cat food and the biggest cat >scratching post ever seen ;>) Have you read any of the "Cat Who ---" books? The author is Lillian Jackson Braun.The main charactor is a man who inherits millions (he loves cats). He buys a barn in the country and converts it to living quarters. The barn has ramps on three stories for the cats. They have great fun running up and down. The male Siamese is psychic and helps the man solve mysteries -=- great fun to read. > >> If you had a million dollars what would you do for your cat or the good of > >> cat kind?

Yes I've read a couple of those, great stuff :-) Ivor m. L.

I just couldn't seem to get it going. She has a lot of them so somebody must like them. But, after trying to get thru it (it took over a week and for me that is a record), I decided no more. Glad to meet one of those who does enjoy them tho. Some other esoteric mystery type writers like that are Janet Evanonvich and Lawrence Block. In his Bernie the burglar series, Bernie has cat(s). >m.

"Tina Laitinen" <tina.laitinen@rogers.com> wrote the following words of wisdom: > If you had a million dollars what would you do for your cat or the good of > cat kind? > > Tina Well, first off, a paltry million dollars just wouldn't do justice to what I would like to do to or for (depending on how you look at it I guess) cat kind and their owners. I would gather all of the cat owners in the world together and get a poll on the best place in the world to live. Majority rules in this case. Then I would buy that area, put a fence 60 or 70 feet high and buried deep into the ground all the way around it. Then I would put all of the cats and the cat lovers into it and block it off. That way, my asthma and other various allergies might just leave me in peace for awhile. Since I don't particularly care for cats, this is an ideal solution to me. Too bad for the cat owner minority tho. And of course, I would have to make sure I still had lots of dough left over for me and mine to be on the other side of the planet well away from the loud meowing of let me out so that I can shed tons of cat hair, choke on it and then spit it out and so I can be a lazy bum all the while acting as if I am of royalty cats.

Hmm. I like to think (although I am a dog lover, too) of cat lovers as acting more catlike instead of doglike. Meaning cool, composed, secure in their sense of self worth -- as opposed to gullible and excitable, as are dogs. When somebody pulls your chain, just hold your tail high, put your nose in the air, walk a few paces away, sit down and get all absorbed in having a good wash. Cat lovers know they're superior. :) SignatureDiana http://bellsouthpwp.net/d/r/drdrive/ > Hmm.

The so-called aloofness that cats are famous for is actually concession of territory by the "aloofor" to the "aloofee". The affection of a cat must of course be earned. That's one of the big differences from dogs, who are typically ingratiatingly loyal even to those who mistreat them -- a virtuous quality in a sense, somewhat adaptive in a sense, but not what I would choose for myself. BTW, I find you an interesting poster -- just don't push the cat-negative attitude, or people on here will likely start ignoring you. If this happens, you will find us cold, distant, and abandoning, when we are simply offering you your own territory, different from ours.

Cat lovers know they're superior. :) Well, I wouldn't go that far. I think cat lovers are just like cats tho. Definitely a different breed of animal. ;-) Have an awesome day Diana.

Wow, now that was an intelligent response. You must be one of the ones to take it to the extreme I guess. I tell you what. You can call me whatever you want all day and I will just smile a superior smile and go about my business. Seem fair to you? It does to me :-) > Why are you in this forum if you don't like cats? He kind of has a good point ... just reverse it so we get to pick a place for all the non-cat lovers, stick them in there so our moggies and their human slaves can live in a world free of people moaning about our little fur friends (masters?)... -- Richard Horton "Users are like a virus, each causing a thousand tiny crises until the host finally dies..." http://www.solstans.co.uk "richard<fullstop>horton" <"richard<fullstop>horton"@solstans.remove.co.uk> wrote the following words of wisdom: >> Why are you in this forum if you don't like cats? > [quoted text clipped - 4 lines] > > -- Hey now, there are more of us than there are of you. That might make an interesting sci-fi book tho. A race comes down and wipes out most of humanity. The only ones left have just one thing in common, they are cat owners. Turns out that the alien race is a feline one and they recognize the true rulers of the planet called earth and they spare their human minions. >"richard<fullstop>horton" <"richard<fullstop>horton"@solstans.remove.co.uk> >wrote the following words of wisdom: [quoted text clipped - 13 lines] >owners.

You have the outline and a good imagination -- now write the story. Maybe you will make a million. Bill <rat@tattat.com> wrote the following words of wisdom: > Why are you in this forum if you don't like cats? Well, we made our two indoor cats outdoor cats. Had too. The territorial peeing and ruining of the furniture got into the thousands of dollars. Anyways, we recently got puppies. Mini-Poodles as a matter of fact. But, have you seen the Poodle NG. Totally empty. They built it and no one came. I still wanted that sense of community with other pet owners tho and since we still have cats (albiet outdoor ones), I figured why not here. |
