Subject: Killer the cat


NE Kansas
I do not know how this got into Stock Talk, but here it is again.

This is from the Western Farm Press.

Harry Cline wrote an article about this cat that became part of the family. It is a funny story about a cat that attached himself to this family. The link to the first article is http://westernfarmpress.com/news/cline-column-1221/index.html .

A fellow editor from Southwest Farm Press wrote to Cline and this what his friend said about the difference between a dog and a cat. I think this is very true. Sure dogs are useful, but cats are smarter. The cat part of the article is next. The link is http://westernfarmpress.com/news/cline-column-0111/index.html

The “Meet Morris, aka Killer the cat” column (Western Farm Press, Dec. 19, 2009) generated a few e-mails and Christmas gift suggestions. All appreciated.

However, there was one “correction” from fellow editor Ron Smith, my counterpart at Southwest Farm Press: “The fact that you can train a dog, but cannot train a cat puts the lie to your notion that a dog is smarter. Cats have better sense than to succumb to dumb human attempts to train them. Train them for what — cheap parlor tricks? Don’t think so. Just consider who has been trained in this scenario. Not the cat, but Harry Cline, previous cat hater, now spender of gigantic sums of money to keep an untrainable animal alive and well.”

Thank you so much, Ron.
