The phrase "a cat in gloves" is used in Thomas Dicken's novel Little Dorrit to indicate a person who adopts an affected air of superiority. A cat who promenaded while wearing a pair of gloves would (presumeably) be the envy of other cats who could not afford such a luxury. Still, wearing gloves, it would not be able to catch any mice!
"A Cat In Gloves, Catches No Mice" means that something blocking your way when your trying to do something.
This proverb means that sometimes being overly cautious or too refined can prevent you from achieving your goals. Just like how a cat wearing gloves won't be able to catch mice, being too careful or hesitant can prevent you from taking necessary risks and actions to succeed.
3 cats catch 3 mice in 3 days.-- 1 cat catches 1 mouse in 3 days./-- 1 cat catches 1/3rd of a mouse per day./-- 1 cat catches (9 x 1/3rd) = 3 mice in 9 days./-- 9 cats catch (9 x 3) = 27 mice in 9 days.
135 If each cat catches the same number of mice per day (15), then one cat will catch 60 mice in 4 days.
"It doesn't matter if a cat is black or white, so long as it catches mice"
In, "the cat lurked after mice," lurked means hunted after, or chased after.
If your cat is loyal enough, it will bring you food that it catches, such as the mouse. The cats thinks of you as the family leader so it lets you eat first. <3
It's because of the food they eat. Inside cats are fed cat food, and cat food usually makes a cat gain more weight because some of the cat food ingredients. Now, a outside cat doesn't eat cat food. A outside cat eats stuff like mice and birds. Mice and birds don't have the ingredients cat food does. And outside cats have to hunt the mice and birds, and sometimes the cats don't catch the mice or birds. Sometimes it catches somthing sucessfully and sometimes it doesn't.
The mice hung a bell around the cat's neck.
The Mice Will Play.
Almost always. A cat, properly trained in hunting by its mother, will almost always kill a mouse when it catches one. An untrained cat will generally play with a mouse until it dies of heart failure.
If 10 cats can catch 10 mice in 10 seconds, that means each cat catches 1 mouse in 10 seconds. To catch 100 mice in 100 seconds, each cat would still catch 10 mice in that time (since 100 seconds is 10 times 10 seconds). Therefore, you would need 10 cats to catch 100 mice in 100 seconds, as they would catch the same number of mice at the same rate.
