From Feng Shui for Felines
Home:
A solid front gate increases the likelihood that desires will be fulfilled. Sit on the other side of the gate and sing loudly. In this way, someone will open the gate, and your desire to be let in will be fulfilled.
If your desire is simply to have the gate opened, gaze longingly into the gate after it is opened, and then walk away imperiously in the other direction.
Health:
To achieve the best absorption of ch’i, always sit on the lap of the lone human in a room, or between two humans. If there are more than two humans in the room, sit in the southwest corner and stare at them. When they glance at you, absorb the ch’i.
Romance:
The wise cat knows that all collars are unflattering. Remove the collar at once and hide it where humans cannot find it.
Sustenance:
Eating from a chipped food dish brings bad luck.
Nature:
Use the energy of the earth to ensure a successful hunt. Flatten your body; become one with the dirt. Feel its power flowing through you.
Obligatory Cat Pictures
As you may know I gave my precious feline friend to my mom (and by precious I mean 18-pounds of fur). Moving from a cramped D.C. apartment to a house with a a big enclosed porch and birds to watch made Oliver a very happy kitty indeed. I don’t have many photos of him because he was a very private cat, looking away whenever a camera appeared. Mom somehow managed to take a few good pictures though, which I just must post.

Mike,
Are you going to take care of all of these kittens? I want to make sure they all find a good home, and was expecting to sell them one at a time. Are you able to house all six of them?
From Mike Hunt to Shannon *******
Shannon,
To be honest, I own a pet Bengal Tiger and he is on a strict diet of cats. I usually feed him one cat every couple of days, so this litter should hold him over for a while. Don’t worry though, I’ll take good care of the kittens until I feed them to him.

That is horrible! You will not get a single kitten from me. I really hope you are not serious.
From Mike Hunt to Shannon *******
Shannon,
I was kidding. I seriously need all six kittens though. Disregard anything I said about a tiger.
From Shannon ******* to Me
NO.
