After scolding one's cat one looks into its face and is seized by the ugly suspicion that it understood every word. And has filed it for reference.-Charlotte Gray

Cats always seem so very wise, when staring with their half-closed eyes. Can they be thinking, "I'll be nice, and maybe she will feed me twice? -Bette Midler

Quotable Sunday #6

Another Sunday--Another Round of Quotes for Quotable Sundays--YAY! Head on over to A Daily Dose of Toni's to sign in and make the rounds of everyone else who has checked in for the day--and remember we ALL love to hear comments :) Since this is my Ragdoll site---the quotes are about--guess what?? Kittens and cats...so let's get quoting...

The cat seldom interferes with other people's rights.
His intelligence keeps him from doing many of the fool things that complicate life.
-Carl Van Vechten

A countryman between two lawyers is like a fish between two cats.
- Ben Franklin

To please himself only the cat purrs.
- Irish Proverb

There are people who reshape the world by force or argument, but the cat just lies there, dozing; and the world quietly reshapes itself to suit his comfort and convenience.
- Allen and Ivy Dodd

The cat has too much spirit to have no heart.- Ernest Menaul


People that hate cats will come back as mice in their next life.- Faith Resnick


There is no snooze button on a cat who wants breakfast. - Unknown


Its easy to understand why the cat has eclipsed the dog as modern America's favorite pet. People like pets to possess the same qualities they do. Cats are irresponsible and recognize no authority, yet are completely dependent on others for their material needs. Cats cannot be made to do anything useful. Cats are mean for the fun of it. - P. J. O'Rourke


A human may go for a stroll with a cat; he has to walk a dog. The cat leads the way, running ahead, tail high, making sure you understand the arrangement. If you should happen to get ahead, the cat will never allow you to think it is following you. It will stop and clean some hard-to-reach spot, or investigate a suspicious movement in the grass; you will find yourself waiting a fidgeting like the lackey you are. But this is not annoying to cat lovers, who understand and appreciate a good joke, even when it is on them.- Robert Stearns

Time spent with cats is never wasted - Collette

I had been told that the training procedure with cats was difficult. It's not. Mine had me trained in two days.~Bill Dana



A cat determined not to be found can fold itself up like a pocket handkerchief if it wants to. ~Louis J. Camuti



In order to keep a true perspective of one's importance, everyone should have a dog that will worship him and a cat that will ignore him. ~Dereke Bruce

If animals could speak, the dog would be a blundering outspoken fellow; but the cat would have the rare grace of never saying a word too much.
~Mark Twain

The reason cats climb is so that they can look down on almost every other animal - it's also the reason they hate birds.

Quotable Sunday #2


Another round of Quotable Sunday. YAY :) I love quotations. I have them all over the house....on scraps and bits of paper. Whenever something touches my heart, I write it down and save it for my website (where I have been doing a monthly quotation page for about 10 years--I have an archive page too--but nothing so organized as by subject or author-LOL!! Just by date!!)

Anyway--Since this is a Ragdoll site--we shall continue with kitty quotes....

A computer and a cat are somewhat alike -- they both purr, and like to be stroked, and spend a lot of the day motionless. They also have secrets they don't necessarily share.

- Jeff Valdez
