CURIOSITY KILLED THE CAT!!

CURIOSITY killed the CAT is a very old proverb 

used to warn against being too curious lest one come to harm.

Here's a sad story from Huguette:

When my mother was a little girl, she lived on a farm where there were a lot of cats. One day, a female cat gave birth to a lot of kittens. My mother played with them just like they were babies. She placed them on the stove door and she forgot them there. The kittens went into the stove and they slept there. My grandmother closed the door and lit the stove to preheat it for supper. She hadn't seen the kittens. When she opened the door ... it was too late. My mother cried a lot. It's a sad story. 

The second story comes from Diane M., a former student. 

I received this email from Diane stating that she has her reasons

for having ' nothing to do' with cats!  

I thought I would share it with you. 

Here it is:

Hello, 

Thank you for your email (newsletter).

I am sorry that I don't have any cute stories about cats to send to you. 

Cats and I are not friends.

My next-door neighbours, who have now moved, had cats and with them came fleas! And eventually they became very unwelcomed visitors to my apartment! Luckily when they left, the landlord had all the rooms cleaned up and I am now free from these pests. So, please don't ask me to be around cats!

Short stories that show you different perceptions

and experiences 

that people have of cats!

What's yours?

Like them, love them?

Allergic to them?

Can't live without them!

Have a nice weekend!
