As someone who has a pet cat but knows absolutely nothing about what makes Ms Kitty’s brain tick, I listened to an interview on NPR last night with an author named John Bradshaw who has written a book called Cat Sense.

Yes. Will I clear the carcass? Yes, but probably not until tomorrow morning… unless some other critter gets it first)
