Quotation of the Day for September 24, 2008
“Why then, if not to steal food, would a cat go up on the counter? Why did George Mallory try to go up on Mount Everest, which was quite a lot more trouble? Because it is there. Because of the view from the kitchen window. To lick the drips from the tap in the sink. To try to pry open the cupboards and see what’s inside them, maybe to squeeze among the glassware. Or, on a rainy day, to look for small objects to knock onto the floor and see if they roll.”
– Barbara Holland
“What, us? We NEVER go on the counter.
…um, when you’re watching, anyway, but never mind that. See how cute we are?”
