INTERVIEWS

Sterling Talks With Interviewers

Suggested Interview Questions:
• I sit on a top shelf in the Shelter. Nobody wants me!
• She will never pick me, I think, but she does. I'm scared and howl in the car.

• I don't believe M is for real. How can she possibly accept me as I am?
• Before M, my claws were cut off. I mark the carpet because I am so angry.
• Welcome to my free lesson stretching.
• I'm a great ball player, but the balls disappear. Where do they go?
• Are you afraid of thunderstorms? Can I help?
• M leaves me. I wait and wait and wait.
• Alice, the doll, speaks to me.
• M comes home from the hospital. Can a cat be a nurse?
• There is another cat living in our home -- a ghost cat!
• Why doesn't my motor turn on when I try to make it turn on?
• Oh no. The vet says I need to lose weight!
• Ask me about the night I caused a catastrophe.
• We travel one thousand miles in a car. I take off my leash, all by myself.
• My birthday party is one big flop.
• Miss Fit -- that's my name for her -- comes into my life. I try to get rid of her.
• In story number sixty I reveal a secret. Ask me and I'll tell you.
• At the end of every story I write Mewsings, a few lines where I make sense of what happens to me. Come from your big, out-of-control world to my little manageable world and I will meet you there.
