Intruder Cat Interviews The Queen Cat

I've just received word that my time grows short in the Queen Cat's territory. I have it on good authority (my mommy), that I'll soon leave here, never to return again. Before I go, I want to take this time to speak boldly to The Queen Cat:

Intruder Cat: Was it necessary to make my time here so difficult?



Queen Cat: Yes it was, it's called Leadership (Domination)...I'm the Queen, and I tell you, you don't tell me...if you would have stayed downstairs as I commanded, your stay would have been less tense. You weren't even invited to enter the territory, by the way.



Intruder Cat: Okay, but what about "Generosity of Spirit." Why not accept another cat into your territory?



Queen Cat: Look kitty-cat, if I wanted to rule over a Colony of Cats, I would have. I don't need any help ruling a Noncat Colony, and truthfully with other cats, you could end up with the biggest band of misfits, ever.



Queen Cat: I'll give you a few examples:

Here is a sissy too shy to ever do battle for a Colony...



This one is so feral, she'd eat the Colony....



A scaredy cat who would play dead rather than fight....



A bunch of bums who would sleep all day rather than hunt for food....



A bruiser with way too much to prove....



Queen Cat: If I wanted, I could command a Noncat to go out and gather cats by the armful, but I do not wish to rule a Colony of Cats.



Intruder Cat: I wasn't suggesting you rule a Colony of Cats, I was just saying you could have treated a cat in your territory with some kindness, or if that's too much for you, how about civility?



Queen Cat: Now you are being a smart-aleck. Interview over!



Intruder Cat: I can't wait till moving day!



Queen Cat: Hit the road Cat, and don't you come back, no more, no more, no more, no more.......
