The Tao Of Meow

Shared by Cindy Hoong:

�There are many kinds of rulers.
The highest rule by virtue and their authority is invisible.
Those they rule are unaware of being ruled.
They may even believe that they are the ones who rule.

The next kind rule by love,
And those they rule praise and honor them.
The next kind rule by fear,
And those they rule become resless, agitated.
The lowest kind rule by muscle,
And those they rule wait for the moment to rebel.

By adhering to these principles,
It is relatively easy for a cat,
Who weighs no more than ten or eleven pounds,
To completely rule a household of four or five HUMANs,
Getting everything he wants,
Giving almost nothing in return.

Rule by terror, and they will take you to a cat shelter.
Rule by fear, and they will give you away
To a family with children.

Rule by love, and they will brag about you,
But if you rule by virtue,
They will believe you to be the best trained cat in the world.
