String, string...everybody loves string

Bertie: Call me kitteh, but I can't go past a ball of string. The way it rolls, the way it runs away up the hallway, the way it fights back and tries to wrap itself around my paws...

Bertie: But I always defeat it in the end. Victory!

A rose by any other name...

Oliver: I think I have a new name.
           The hoomans keep calling me to come inside by yelling "Oliver... Cookie."
           So my name must now be Oliver Cookie.
           I shall answer to no other.

New Year's resolutions - or not

Bertie: So enough holiday, time to do our New Year's Resolutions.

Oliver: What's that?

Bertie: It's when you plan to do things, or not do things for the coming year. Like new experiences, or stopping bad habits.

Oliver: Ok, here's mine:
            To eat 10 things I've never eaten before
            To eat 1000 things I have eaten before
            To sleep a lot
            To not get that cowlick again that makes me look stoopid.
            To exert total control over Sasha
            To not come when I'm called unless there is something in it for me.

Bertie: I don't think you've grasped the concept completely.

Oliver: What do you mean?

Bertie: Well, for example, you should be making a resolution to Come When I'm Called.

Oliver: I did. It's the last one.

Bertie: Without the "unless there is something in it for me"

Oliver: Why would I do that? I like my way better.
