We are surely the primary agent of death for all members of the cat tribe. For many if not most cat species, our depredations must surpass accidents, disease, and even starvation by a considerable margin. – Elizabeth Marshall Thomas
I was always determined that one way or another I would force a book on the world, even if I had to resort to writing one about a tabby cat who solves mysteries. – Ned Beauman
GPS works great. I recommend it for all cat owners who want to know what their cats do when they’re not there, if you can stand the ridicule from your friends. – Caroline Paul
Ted Cruz is the Schroedinger’s cat of politicians. He is both eligible and not eligible to be president. – Mark Frauenfelder
A cat can be trusted to purr when she is pleased, which is more than can be said for human beings. – Dean Inge
Gromit was the name of a cat. When I started modeling the cat I just didn’t feel it was quite right, so I made it into a dog because he could have a bigger nose and bigger, longer legs. – Nick Park
When I eat, I have to chop up everything on the plate and stir it all together. It devastates my mom. Everyone at the table is like, ‘That looks like cat vomit.’ And I stir my Coke with a spoon until it’s flat. – Margot Robbie
I think the process is one of using the camera and sound in the way a detective uses a magnifying glass: to find the clues. They’re discovery devices, not performance devices – you’re watching things the way a cat does. You’re not judging. You’re there to witness something. – D. A. Pennebaker
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
Cats aren’t cooperative in the same way that other animals are. You can train a dog to act, but you can’t train a cat in the same way. – Michael Showalter
You really can’t take a cat and turn it into a dog, or try and get lemons off an apple tree, or what have you. – Diane Lane
We waited until we perfected the dog food, and then we worked on the cat food. Even though it’s not going through the roof the way the dog food is, I think it will catch on eventually. – Dick Van Patten
The Cat Dancer is a 30-inch piece of wire with some little cardboard cylinders on the end. My cats go crazy for it. I stuck it on the wall with the adhesive mount, but I ended up taking it off so I could hold it and play directly with my cats. – Mark Frauenfelder
I was part of a writers’ collective with 21 writers and filmmakers called the San Francisco Writers’ Grotto. We had our own office space in this old converted dog and cat hospital, and we had a basketball hoop outside. I’d bring my dog to work every day and write. – Noah Hawley
I like Kelela. I like Twigs. I love the more old school; I hate to say old school, but I love Peaches; I love Peaches, I love Cat Power. And there’s constantly new things coming up. But there’s something so beautifully powerful – for me being a woman, when there’s a woman doing something, it really strikes a chord. – Neneh Cherry
People actually perceived me with being this cat from the Bronx because I’m one of a handful of folks that was actually acting in ‘Wild Style’. – Fab Five Freddy
Take one female cat over a seven-year period. If all the kittens survived and bred, she would be responsible for 21,000 cats – they are such prolific breeders: you can see how important it is to neuter. – Celia Hammond
I like animals, all animals. I wouldn’t hurt a cat or a dog – or a chicken or a cow. And I wouldn’t ask someone else to hurt them for me. That’s why I’m a vegetarian. – Peter Dinklage
I’m a big cat person. It’s one of those things that’s like, everybody that knows me thinks it’s so weirdly apparent and obvious. – Chelsea Leyland
I went back over the sketch books I’d filled at Sheffield for ideas and discovered Wallace and Gromit, except Gromit was a cat then. I made them into Plasticene shapes and started ‘A Grand Day Out.’ It took me longer than I expected. – Nick Park
If you try and take a cat apart to see how it works, the first thing you have on your hands is a nonworking cat. – Douglas Adams
The ancient feud between cat and dog is not forgotten in the north, for the Lynx is the deadly foe of the Fox and habitually kills it when there is soft snow and scarcity of easier prey. – Ernest Thompson Seton
Cleaning cat litter is an unpleasant daily chore for me, but the DuraScoop makes it much less unpleasant. – Mark Frauenfelder

We’ve gotten involved in cat rescue – we take them in and find homes for them. I’ve always loved cats. I saw how homeless cats were living out there. We take them in, put out flyers. – Greg Ginn
