Cats and Music

[DesDownunder]

I recognised that the Earth was a sphere, and not flat when I was very young, some 70 years ago. I also noted that the Christmas celebrations were a preparation for Christian indoctrination and rejected such superstitions. I should have been called Sheldon. Unfortunately, I never aspired to be a physicist, so my genius had to settle for cats and music. Einstein thought cats and music were two means of refuge from the misery of life, but there our intellects stopped being relative. If only all those conflict-oriented politicians would just take time out to stroke the cat whilst listening to music, we might find it's not impossible to have peace on Earth at last.

Perhaps. But when said cat slips the surly bonds of its human master and dances a jig down the keyboard, that is surely the stoppage of intellect in toto and most certainly the end of peace on Earth!

Human master? You have it all wrong, Chris. We're on the planet to serve Cats, not the other way around. Ask any of them.

That is sooooooooooooooooo true!

When the hood was removed, he could hear the slow strains of a Bach Air filling the room. The high back of a leather chair confronted him. Slowly, it turned to reveal its occupant.

“Ah, Mr. Bond,” said Blofeld as he languidly stroked the white persian in his lap, “We meet again.”

I wonder if it would work for Trump and Kim Jong-un, when they meet?

Neither one would be able to agree who should stroke it first, or last.

If it ended up at a King Solomon type impasse, they'd both be willing to cut it in half.

Very black and Pythonesque, Cole.

So sad... Kim Jong-un was pissed about the joint operations just conducted by the USA and the South Koreans. The latest rumor is that the meeting in June is not going to happen.

Dogs think we're gods, but cats think we're staff.

 

[Merkin]

Yet from time to time cats catch and bring us sacrifices.  Weird.

Aren't they looking for praise for their prowess?

I read they do this out of pity.

 

 They think we're utterly useless at hunting and providing for ourselves, so they are feeling sorry for our complete lack of important life skills and are trying to provide for us.

My friend who has three cats (!!!) says they do it because they want to show him that the only thing he's good for is feeding them and cleaning up after them including emptying out their litter boxes (plural because he says his cat's won't share — is that a thing in multiple-cat households?).
