...one Of The Ways In Which Cats

Giving The Cat A Name, Like Marriage, Is Not An Easy Thing. Soon I Experienced The Selection Of Name For A Baby, A Dog, A Book, A Warship, A Sports Team, Even The King, The Pope Or A Hurricane Is Just Child's Play Compared To The Selection Of The Cat's Name.

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.

I've Always Had A Sneaking Fondness For Martin Van Buren. He Wrote His Autobiography, You Know, And Never Once Mentioned His Wife. Now That's What I Call A Mans Man.

Unlike Some People Who Have Experienced The Loss Of An Animal, I Did Not Believe, Even For A Moment, That I Would Never Get Another. I Did Know Full Well That There Were Just Too Many Animals Out There In Need Of Homes For Me To Take What I Have Always Regarded As The Self-indulgent Road Of Saying The Heartbreak Of The Loss Of An Animal Was Too Much Ever To Want To Go Through With It Again. To Me, Such An Admission Brought Up The Far More Powerful Admission That All The Wonderful Times You Had With Your Animal Were Not Worth The Unhappiness At The End.

You Can Give Of Your Talent, You Can Give Of Your Possessions, Or You Can Give Of Yourself. For God's Sake, Give Something.
