What is a Cat? 1. Cats do what they want. 2. They rarely listen to you. 3. They’re totally unpredictable. 4. When you want to play, they want to be alone. 5. When you want to be alone, they want to play. 6. They expect you to cater to their every whim. 7. They’re moody. 8. They leave hair everywhere. CONCLUSION: They’re tiny women in little fur coats. ---

What about my cat who is a total guy? I mean, if he were human, he’d lie around swilling beer all day and scratching his balls. (NOTE TO THE PC POLICE: I only mean “guy” in a silly limited sense. I am not insulting all men. But trust me, he’s such a GUY!) ---
