I Love My Cat!
Just thought I'd let you all know I love my cat.
He likes to sit on my shoulder and watch while I read. He seems to prefer non-fiction. That is all. Thank you. |

Great to see another cat lover. Mine likes to sit between me and my keyboard whenever I work at my computer. When he wants to go outside he sits at the front door, "Meow, let me out". So I get up to open the door. As soon as I close the door he turns around, "Meow, let me in". So I let him in. Immediately, "Meow, let me in". And so it goes on. I'm sure he's doing for my benefit to get exercise. |

Often that smell is the owner, not a catbox, so while a cat isn't necessary for a used bookstore, the smell of one apparently is. However, it could be argued that it is a COWARDLY bookstore owner who for liability reasons fails to retain a properly ill-tempered cat that scratches or bites patrons with fair regularity. The ferocity of the cat effects the quality of the stock. Stores that have been forced to post warnings about a cat's bad temper usually have great stock. The best cat was at Seattle's old Crucible Books 25 years ago. It would lie in wait from a high shelf, & leap down upon patrons. The unsuspecting would thrash about yelling in surprised terror & so got their necks all scratched up. Those who expected it could have a loudly purring cat ride about on their shoulders during the full length of their visit. But has anyone else noticed how bookstores that have, instead of a cat, a small neurotic dog, have a tendency to stock primarily exlibs & most of those on religious topics? -paghat the ratgirl -- Get your Paghat the Ratgirl T-Shirt he http://www.paghat.com/giftshop.html "History, I believe, furnishes no example of a priest-ridden people maintaining a free civil government." -Thomas Jefferson |

"Bob Smith" wrote in message ... cats are the best meat for oriental dishes cats make great shotgun targets other than that, they ain't much good for nothin' Oh no, not at all. Cats used to be used as targets by archers. The cat was hung alive by its tail from a support. Then the archers would have at it. It's the origin of the expression "swing a cat by the tail." |
