4150.0. "ALL I NEED TO KNOW I LEARNED FROM MY CAT........." by SWAM2::SZAFIRSKI_LO () Thu Nov 08 1990 11:16

    Well I went to the book store last night and was quite pleased to find
    a new cute little book with Cats, great captions and wonderful cartoon
    illustrations.  Now I know you can't see the cartoons, but being the
    owner of a fur face I am sure you can visualize what the animated
    drawings looks like.  I tried to pick out favorites, but ended up
    writing down atleast half of the book!......Enjoy!
