I saw the most beautiful cat today. It was sitting by the side of the road,
its two front feet neatly and graciously together. Then it gravely swished
around its tail to completely encircle itself. It was so fit and
beautifully neat, that gesture, and so self-satisfied - so
complacent.
-Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Cats are always elegant.
Oh cat; I'd say, or pray: be-oootiful cat! Delicious cat! Exquisite cat!
Satiny cat! Cat like a soft owl, cat with paws like moths, jewelled cat,
miraculous cat! Cat, cat, cat, cat.
For I am possessed of a cat, surpassing in beauty, from whom I take occasion
to bless Almighty God.
Like a graceful vase, a cat, even when motionless, seems to flow.
-George F. Will

There's no need for a piece of sculpture in a home that has a cat.
Webster was very large and very black and very composed. He conveyed the
impression of being a cat of deep reserves. Descendant of a long line of
ecclesiastical ancestors who had conducted their decorous courtships beneath
the shadow of cathedrals and on the back walls of bishops' palaces, he had
that exquisite poise which one sees in high dignitaries of the Church. His
eyes were clear and steady, and seemed to pierce to the roots of the young
man's soul...
By associating with the cat, one only risks becoming richer.
-Colette
The cat is truly aristocratic in type and origin.
A cat may look on a king.
