Cat quotes from The Animals of Farthing Wood

Badger

Where am I?

Cat

In the warden's cottage of course.

Badger

What's happened to me? (noticing a bandage on one of his front legs) Did the man do this to me?

Cat

Don't you remember what happened?

Badger

No! (he tugs at the bandage)

Cat

He won't like you doing that. I suppose an enemy hurt you?

Badger

I haven't got many enemies. Just humans, and...

Cat

But my human looked after you. You should be thanking your lucky stars.

Badger

...er, dogs!

Cat

Dogs? (he hisses) Now you're talking. Disgusting fawning creatures.

Cat

I have news of Badger!

Mole

Did you say "Badger"?

Cat

Are you the mole from Farthing Wood? Ah... then you are his friend. He sent me with a message; he was injured somehow but now he's quite safe in the warden's lodge.

Mole

Oh thank you. Thank you!

Cat

He'll be there till he's better. Alright?

Mole

Alright?!? It's wonderful! (he sobs)

Cat

I thought you liked the badger.

Mole

I do. I do!

Cat

Then why are you crying? I just told you. He's alright!

Mole

That's why I'm crying!

Cat

Ugh... inscrutable.

Vixen

What's going on?

Cat

I suppose you're Vixen? You and your stupid oath! (he hisses viciously at Kestrel) I can't walk a step!

Mole

You're part of the oath now Cat! From now on, we'll look after you!

Cat

I've already sampled your precious oath, thank you very much.

Kestrel

May I offer my apologies. So embarassing!

Fox

You meant well Kestrel.

Cat

(Hisses) Not to me she didn't. Ouch!

Vixen

Sorry.

Cat

I know. Don't say it. You mean well too (!).

Cat

What do you want? Are you sick again?

Badger

No! I... I've come home!

Cat

You're a wild animal. You don't belong here.

Badger

You manage!

Cat

My kind have learned to purr and rub over man's legs for generations! Could you learn overnight?

Badger

But you're my friend! You could teach me!

Cat

Oh go home you stupid creature!
