Things I've Learned From Cats

1. Just give them time. Humans always give up eventually.

2. Let them think they own you. It helps to keep them cleaning out our litter boxes.

3. The proper number of litter boxes = Number of cats + 1.

4.  Even if you like what you're being fed, act finiky anyway.  They kind of respect that.

5.  Sprint outside once in a while when they open a door.  Just to see if they still care.

6.  There is no place in the entire house we can't get to with a little craziness and/or some catnip.

7.  Jump into any new bag or box immediately.  They expect that from us.

8.  Purr once in a while even if you don't mean it.  Keeps the men from turning on us.

9.  Never, ever let them know that we understand their language completely.  It will ruin the fun.

10.  Act like you don't care about the pet mice or birds.  Eventually they'll let their guard down.
