Warm our laps. Give us someone to talk to. Help reduce high blood pressure.
Bring the winter air inside, nestled in their coats. Create a kindred feeling with other "cat people."  Turn common household objects like bottle caps into toys.
Make us more aware of birds. Donate their services as alarm clocks.
Display daring acrobatic feats right in front of our eyes.
Contribute to living a longer life. Make a window sill more beautiful.
Keep mice on the run. Make us smile. Inspire poets and playwrights.
Teach us how to land on our feet.
Let us indulge our desires to really spoil someone. Make our homes warmer.
Remind us that life is mysterious.
Share with us the all-is-well experience of purring.
Instruct us in the luxurious art of stretching.
Show us how to lick our wounds and go on. Give us cool cartoon characters.
Make even an old worn couch look beautiful. Open our hearts.

When God made the world, He chose to put animals in it, and decided to give each whatever it wanted. All the animals formed a long line before His throne, and the cat quietly went to the end of the line. To the elephant and the bear He gave strength, to the rabbit and the deer, swiftness; to the owl, the ability to see at night, to the birds and the butterflies, great beauty; to the fox, cunning; to the monkey, intelligence; to the dog, loyalty; to the lion, courage; to the otter, playfulness.
And all these were things the animals begged of God. At last he came to the end of the line, and there sat the little cat, waiting patiently.
"What will YOU have?" God asked the cat. The cat shrugged modestly.
"Oh, whatever scraps you have left over. I don't mind."
"But I'm God. I have everything left over."
"Then I'll have a little of everything, please."
And God gave a great shout of laughter at the cleverness of this small animal, and gave the cat everything she asked for, adding grace and elegance and, only for her, a gentle purr that would always attract humans and assure her a warm and comfortable home. But he took away her false modesty.

You know how it is with chocolate, one piece simply won't do.
It's that way with cats, having one, makes you want two.

They are there if ever you need them, dieting, guy troubles or stress.
They provide instant relief...and they are fat free, no less.

Perhaps you'll have a favourite; they come in every colour and size.
Siamese, Burmese, all with the most striking eyes.

Tabbies, Domestics , Persians, orange, black, (and you will never put one back!)
Long haired, short haired, in-between, purring, soft and always clean.

And then before you know it, your heart will surely melt.
A life-long friend and companion is what you have been dealt.

They will share your life, make it rich beyond compare, (and they never touch
chocolate,) so you won't have to share.

You can have cats and chocolate too, what girl could ask for more?
So curl up with some of both and live happily, evermore!
