Cats are a girl’s best friend

A JAPANESE survey concludes that while cats probably do recognise their names when called, they will often choose to ignore you, unless they want to be fed.

Unlike dogs, of course, which respond to every human command. What tosh — ‘catism’ at its worst. My cat Teddy responds every time I call him and he’s not that interested in food.

Time for bed, time to get up, time to play, time to watch Spurs on TV — one call and he’s by my side for all of them.
