The cats have been pontificating and advising for seven years and 800 posts. They are now taking a break, going in an indefinite sabbatical. Perhaps they will make an ocasional appearance, perhaps they will never return.

In the meantime you can scroll through all 800 Cat World posts. If you prefer, you can filter them by category by clicking the three bars at the top left and selecting a category from the Categories drop-down at the bottom.

The title of this post and the reference to fish come of course from the name of the fourth book in Douglas Adams’s Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy trilogy: So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish.

The long quote about “End! Why should it end?” is from the last lines of the play Opus, by Michael Hollinger, modified slightly to refer to words rather than notes.
