It’s surprising cats even put up with us. :^)

I’d like to see one of these rotating Ames windows, set up in an Ames Room, with cats wandering back and forth in it, intermittently messing around with rattlebacks. It would be the most popular spot in museums.

I tried that with my cats, but they didn’t even bat a cat’s eye.

You could get an NEA grant for that as well as some university funding. And PETA protests outside, no doubt.

Cats!!! The other white meat!!!

Cats look down on us.
Dogs look up to us.
Pigs consider us equals.
