When I Was a Cat

Wherein our intrepid author muses, mostly in haiku, regarding life with an Important Cat. They're different, you know, the Important Cats. What make a cat an Important Cat This is not something you need to worry about. No, indeed. The cat will let you know very quickly. You don't even have to ask. Just do your duty. Fetch the cream. Open the tuna can. Bring home the fresh catnip. Lose that accursed laser pointer. You know the drill. Do it, and in time, the cat will tell you about Important Cat status. Meanwhile, you may ponder the well-known fact that cats are two independent creatures joined by the mama cat at birth. There's the cat part, which you know very well. It has fangs and claws and fuzzy ears. Then, there's the tail part. You might not have known that the tails separate creatures from the cat part of cats. Yes, indeed, and now that you know, you'll be sure to see the evidence when tail moves independently of cat. Study this carefully.
