Dogs come when called, cats have answering machines and might get back to you
Anything not nailed down is a cat toy!
Cats don't want to own people. They prefer to lease with an option.
Some say that cats are sneaky evil and cruel. True, and they have other fine qualities as well
Cats keep their claws sharp because they know that just a purr may not be enough

Cats don't get into mischief, cats are mischief
The cat could very well be man's best friend, but would never stoop to admitting it
E Pluribus Meow - In cats we trust
We had to give away the kids - the cat was allergic
Do not meddle in the affairs of cats for they are subtle and will piss on your: computer, homework, laundry, carpet, stereo, all of the above

Our first cat we called Blacky. While we were building our house we always took her with us to the building site, so she could explore the growing house. We also did this when we were tiling the bathroom. We had nearly finished, and wanted to go to bed at 2pm.
Blacky had gone!
We could hear her miaow though, so we searched the house, but - nothing. We started again, then as we came near the bathroom the miaow became louder. Right in the bathroom the noise was very distinct - but alas no cat!
We called...... silence. We walked away........ "Miaow !".
At last we could identify where the noise came from, she called from behind a wall. Now I must explain to you, that we have a wooden house with hollow walls. No problem at all, because all the walls are tightly sealed, except for one spot. The top edge had an opening or 14 by 50 cm, inside there was no beam, it went straight down, 250 cm deep. Exactly this spot the cat had found, and of course had to explore what was in there.
Now what could we possibly do?
We let down a small wooden plank on a rope. Smart Blacky did the right thing, and climbed on. We could pull her up - about 20 cm, no more. So we tried again, and again, and again... it wouldn't work.
Finally we had to cut a hole in the wall, hoping all the time that Blacky would duck down and avoid being hit by the saw. We could not make the hole too high up because we had to be able to pull her out.
Finally it worked. As we pulled her out she was covered over and over in sawdust, she was more a 'Brownie' than a 'Blacky'.
She was very happy to have come out of her prison, but also very nervous. We had to calm her down, and with some 'goodies' we managed to do just that. Of course no one could sleep that night.
Next morning the tradesmen had a good laugh!
For some time to come Blacky always made a detour around the bathroom.

Strange noises in the night

Roll, roll, tap, tap, tap!
One night around three o/clock in the morning, I woke up to a strange noise.
Roll, roll, tap, tap ...that's how it sounded, and so on, and so on ...
As I am not very brave, I sent my wife to the kitchen to enquire what was going on.She was not too enthusiastic about it but she went.
When she did not return after a while, I had to pluck up all my courage, to find out the source of the noise. There they were, both of them, cat and.....

wife playing 'potato- ball'.
A small potato must have rolled under one of the kitchen cupboards without us noticing. Mumpfi found the item and off she went to play with it.
We heard loud complaints when we threw the potato into the kitchen bin, but finally the cat followed us back to the bedroom.
About an hour later we heard some terrific noise from the kitchen. We both ran there, and saw what Mumpfi presented us with - she had managed to open the door under the sink, to pull out the bucket, thrown it over, and there she was sitting on the kitchen floor playing 'potato-ball'
That was the end of a good night's sleep.
