Nuri Pretends Not to Wait by the Door For Ali


Sometimes even I don’t understand feline logic. I suppose some cats are afraid they will lose their home if they break the rules their humans give them. I know it can happen, but it’s good when your humans just love you unconditionally and will put up with all of your quirks.

Nuri is so bonded to my girl Ali that sometimes when Ali is out of the house for too long, Nuri will wait by the door until Ali gets home. Nuri did bolt outside once when she didn’t see Ali much to Ali’s mom’s anxiety. Ali came shortly afterwards and cuddled with Nuri.

Ali usually works at home and so Nuri got used to it. So, it doesn’t take long for Nuri to miss Ali too much. Since Nuri bolted once, she learned the humans didn’t like it too well. So, now she pretends she’s not waiting by the door. Although Ali tends to catch her and chuckles.

I know Nuri has it good with Ali. I doubt Nuri really needs to worry. Ali will keep looking after Nuri for the rest of her life.

Cat Quotes 4:09


The cat seldom interferes with other people’s rights. His intelligence keeps him from doing many of the fool things that complicate life. —Carl Van Vechten

Cats know it’s folly to infringe on others’ rights. Cats want their rights respected and know they have to respect the rights of others. They also don’t understand many of the prejudices that humans tend to harbor in their hearts. Cats are intelligent enough to know how wrong and stupid prejudice is.

Cats are smarter than dogs. You can’t get eight cats to pull a sled through snow. —Jeff Valdez

Cats don’t tend to like snow or water in any form. It’s not good for them as many learn when they are kittens. Perhaps that’s one reason why cats won’t pull any sleds through snow. Another reason is that they don’t feel the need to please anyone.

As anyone who has ever been around a cat for any length of time well knows cats have enormous patience with the limitations of the human kind. —Cleveland Amory

They do have patience. I would know. As a klutz, I used to drop things on the floor all the time and disturb Sir Socks Le Chat’s nap on a regular basis. That is until he realized I wasn’t doing it on purpose. Then he learned to get out of the way and talk to me so I wouldn’t step on him in the dark.

Even the stupidest cat seems to know more than any dog. —Eleanor Clark

Dogs don’t really care to know much. They know how to please and make us happy. A cat knows more and how to get what they need and want without having to please us.

If a dog jumps into your lap it is because he is fond of you; but if a cat does the same thing it is because your lap is warmer. —A. N. Whitehead

That is true about dogs who want to please us. But cats it may or may not be true depending upon the cat and how we treat them. Some cats aren’t lap cats. So, they won’t lay on your lap no matter what.

Cats seem to go on the principle that it never does any harm to ask for what you want. —Joseph Wood Krutch

Cats are independent and brave. They don’t care what anyone thinks of them. So, of course they have no trouble asking for what they want from us.
