The Kitty Korner

I'm only a cat,
and I stay in my place.
Up there on your chair,
on your bed or your face.
I'm only a cat
and I don't finick much.
I'm happy with cream
and anchovies and such.
I'm only a cat
and we'll get along fine,
As long as you know
I'm not yours. . . you're all mine!!

Didja know. . .

that the gene for the Siamese coloration in cats and some other animals is heat sensitive?? Warmth produces a lighter color than does cold. Siamese kittens are born white because of the heat inside the mother's uterus before birth. This heat keeps the kittens hair from dark-ening on the points.

that in cats, the calico and tortoiseshell coats are sex-linked traits?? All cats displaying these coats are female. . . or occasionally sterile males.

that electric light or light from your TV set will make your cat shed her fur??

"Cats are rather delicate creatures
and they are subject to a good many ailments, but I never heard of one who suffered from insomnia."

"Cats are the ultimate narcissists. You can tell this because of all the time they spend on personal grooming. . .

Dogs aren't like this. A dog's idea of personal grooming is to roll on
a dead fish."
