nice 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

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
