“…Cats and humans have been partners for over ten thousand years. And what you realize when you've lived with a cat for a long time is that we may think we own them, but that's not the way it is. They simply allow us the pleasure of their company…” - Genki Kawamura

"...Cats will amusingly tolerate humans only until someone comes up with a tin opener that can be operated with a paw..." - Terry Pratchett
