High Noon: Rebellious Cats

“‘I don’t like cats,’ a newspaper editor said to me one day with that characteristic gift management people have for belaboring the obvious. “‘They’re so unmanageable.’ Of course they’re unmanageable. That’s what normal people like about them. That’s what management types hate about cats: they’re mavericks. They won’t keep their place. Cats are to pethood what feminists are to sexim. They’d rather rip your face off than stoop and grovel” — Bill Hall/”Cat Butler” (as provided by CindyH, who’s read the former newsman’s book about cats and who provided a photo of her inspurrration).

Question: Do you admire rebels and mavericks in your family or workplace? Or do you think life would be better if the people around you were more “manageable”?
