Even stray cat can be nice cat provided that he does not cause you any trouble. Cats do have characters. That's why somebody has said nobody can own a cat. In fact you are owned by them. Well, just looking at the cat we people just wonder why we have to work so hard and cats just sleep, play and eat and still be well provided for. Yet the poor 'cat owner' will forget the cat's laziness once he purrs at you, greeting you with a vertical tail and ribboning around your feet.
