How to check a cat quote
- Look for the original book, poem, memoir, or other first-party source.
- Compare the wording with that source; translations and editions may differ.
- If you find a line only on a quote page or in a compilation, treat that page as a discovery lead, not proof of the attribution.
- When no original source is established, label the line as attributed or anonymous rather than presenting it as verified.
Harrison Weir’s Our Cats can help readers explore traditional cat sayings. For a humorous cat-themed anthology, Henry N. Beard’s Poetry for Cats: The Definitive Anthology of Distinguished Feline Verse is a further-reading lead; check the book itself for exact wording and verify the current edition and availability before linking to a retailer.

FAQ
What makes a cat quote well sourced?
The strongest attribution identifies both the writer and the original work or context. A quote page can point you toward a candidate, but it does not by itself establish the exact wording or source.
Is “A cat may look at a king” a quotation by one author?
It is a proverb rather than a modern quotation with one known author. Harrison Weir discusses the saying and variants in Our Cats.
