Read the excerpt from Throughout the looking glass by Lewis Carroll. It is very inconvenient habit of kittens. (Alice had once made the remark) that, whatever you say to them, they ALWAYS purr. “If they would purr for ‘yes’ and new for ‘no’, or any rule of that sort,” she had said, “so that you could keep up a conversation! But how CAN you talk with a person if they always say the same thing?”

On this occasion the kitten only purred: and it was impossible to guess whether it meant “yes” or “no.”
