Cats have been called many things. Some say they're aloof and independent. Others say they're warm and affectionate. Wise, playful, intelligent, sly, stealthy, regal and silly are just a few of the many traits ascribed to cats. As anyone has ever shared their space with a cat knows, cats are all of these things and so much more. Each cat is unique and has it's own distinct personality. There are somethings that all cats share regardless of their individual characteristics. Cats are our companions, our comfort and a special part of our lives.
