Old cats with whiskers long know not
to venture into spaces shot
with narrow exits which once passed
will soon be closed with windows glassed.

But kitties young, with whiskers short
will venture anywhere for sport

I HAVE to be here!

I knew a Korean dude from 95th Chemical stationed in Germany. His
mother sent him a butchered dog for xmas.

Those toaster/oven/broilers with the slide out rack (reflow
ovens)... they work on dog meat, too. Stunk up the whole 2nd floor.

So ask not pussies doomed to die
To what abode they go;
Such knowledge is but Sorrow's spy;
It is not safe to know.

When I was going to St. Ives,
I met a man with seven wives.
Each wife had seven sacks,
Each sack had seven cats,
Each cat had seven kits.

How many were going to St. Ives?

Yes, although we don't know whether the bigamist was going there too.
Or what was the object of 'how many'. If animals and objects are
included, the answer could be anything from 1 to 2,801.

Depends what is meant by 'met'. If it means 'crossed with' your answer
is right. It could mean 'encountered whilst overtaking' in which case
the powers-of-seven answers COULD be right, as the desitination of the
party could have been St. Ives (it does sound like performance art) or
could have been, say, Mousehole, depending on where the encounter took
place.

So it could become

As I was proceeding in a generally northerly direction along the B3311
between Penzance and St. Ives
I encountered the accused, accompanied by several females, proceeding in
a southerly direction.
Having reason to believe that offences were being committed in
contravention of the Offences Against the Person Act 1861 and the
Cruelty to Animals (Animal Protection) Law 1994,
Assistance was requested and several arrests resulted.
