Below lines highlight just one example one aspect of a cat’s behavior – flattering till hungry, forgetting once fed 😛
****************************************
In the morning when I open the door,
I’m greeted by a meow,
While its still lying on the floor,
It demands as if I owe
It rubs itself against my feet bare,
Flattering to get attention,
And follows me everywhere,
Its ‘humility’ not to mention
To its persistence I give in,
And hurriedly rush inside,
I feel it now bears a grin,
As its demand I abide
As I emerge with a milk bowl
It starts to swirl and stride,
Its meows turn into a bawl,
Now I quietly step aside
Quickly the milk is gone,
It links it lips with conceit,
And walks over the lawn,
Which is its favorite retreat
It won’t recognize me for some span,
And I know there’s a catch,
For a mean creature like man,
A Cat is a mighty match …

When I play with my cat, who knows if I am not a pastime to her more than she is to me?Michel de Montaigne.
