Crazy Cat Quotes

“It’s on the third night, during our game, that I answer the question eating away at me. Crazy Cat becomes a metaphor for my situation. I am Buttercup. Peeta, the thing I want so badly to secure, is the light. As long as Buttercup feels he has the chance of catching the elusive light under his paws, he’s bristling with aggression.
(That’s how I’ve been since I left the arena, with Peeta alive.) When the light goes out completely, Buttercup’s temporarily distraught and confused, but he recovers and moves on to other things. (That’s what would happen if
Peeta died.) But the one thing that sends Buttercup into a tailspin is when I leave the light on but put it hopelessly out of his reach, high on the wall, beyond even his jumping skills. He paces below the wall, wails, and can’t be comforted or distracted. He’s useless until I shut the light off. (That’s what Snow is trying to do to me now, only I don’t know what form his game takes.)”
― Suzanne Collins, Mockingjay

“Jayden? Wake up. We have a problem."
"Only one?"
"We have many problems. This is a new one."
Jayden rubbed his eyes and sat up. "What is it?"
"You know your friend Reginald Lootmore?" Dana pointed at a black cat glaring down at them from the rafters. "Isn't that his cat, Jump Scare?"
Jayden squinted in the dim light. "I do believe it is. I'm shocked he hasn't attacked us yet.”
― Arthur Daigle, Dana Illwind and War's Shadow
