"He's outwardly respectable. (They say he cheats at cards.)And his footprints are not found in any file of Scotland Yard's.And when the larder's looted, or the jewel-case is rifled,Or when the milk is missing, or another Peke's been stifled,Or the greenhouse glass is broken, and the trellis past repair -Ay, there's the wonder of the thing! Macavity's not there!And when the Foreign Office find a Treaty's gone astray,Or the Admiralty lose some plans and drawings by the way,There may be a scrap of paper in the hall or on the stair -But it's useless to investigate - Mcavity's not there!And when the loss has been disclosed, the Secret Service say:'It must have been Macavity!' - but he's a mile away.You'll be sure to find him resting, or a-licking of his thumbs,Or engaged in doing complicated long-division sums.Macavity, Macavity, there's no one like Macavity,There never was a Cat of such deceitfulness and suavity.He always has an alibi, and one or two to spaer:At whatever time the deed took place - MACAVITY WASN'T THERE!And they say that all the Cats whose wicked deeds are widely known(I might mention Mungojerrie, I might mention Griddlebone)Are nothing more than agents for the Cat who all the timeJust controls their operations: the Napoleon of Crime!" - T.S. Eliot, Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats
The objective of "The Cat Room" is to present Cats at Animal Care & Control in a slightly different way. We hope to give potental adoptors and those looking for lost animals quick access to pictures and data.
For more photos and information about fosters, click here and go to bottom of the Foster page!
The Cat Room follows the terms and conditions of Anne Arundel County Animal Care & Control (AACACC). All the photos and data come from the primary AACACC webpages. With just one click, The Cat Room is accessible and quick to reach; it is especially helpful for those looking for a lost cat as it combines information (age, length of stay, sex, etc.) with a photo. In the future look for links to "The Cat Room" in social media. Expect changes and an occasional oops. We hope it is useful and results in more adoptions and redemptions.
The Cat Room will also be a place with feline behavior references as well as historical day to day statistics for the cats in the shelter's care.
