Pugsley's Catnip Patch

Pugsley is my beloved cat. He has traveled with me from New Jersey to California, (we've even taken a trip to Oregon). These pages contain some of the insights I've gained while taking care of Pugsley; and other cat related literature I wanted to share.

The following is a quote from The Book of Cats: a collection of poetry and prose in celebration of cats.

I have just been called to the door by the sweet voice of Toss, whose morning proceedings are wonderful...she comes to my door and gives a mew, and then - especially if I let her in, and go on writing or reading without taking any notice of her - there is a real demonstration of affection, such as never again occurs in the day. She purrs, she walks round and round me, she jumps in my lap, she turns to me and rubs her head and nose against my chin, she opens her mouth and raps her pretty white teeth against my pen. Then she leaps down, settles herself by the fire, and never shows any more affection all day.
