Elder Cats may linger over dinner just as long as we please. Younger Cats must wait respectfully in the waiting box, sometimes referred to as a bar, until we cede our place.
Such are the privileges of age.

Play versus Dinner
Younger cats will play and play and play, ignoring dinner in favor of frivolous games.
We, the elder cats, approve of youthful foolishness as it means more wet food for us.

Old Adages
Old adages don’t necessarily apply to the modern world. Have you heard the one about age before beauty? It only applies when the beauty is NOT a youthful tortie who makes you wait an eternity you don’t have to drink from the bathtub faucet.
Millenials.

Youth versus Experience
When you are a young cat, you want to stalk birds all day every day of the year. As you mature, you realize that it is better to stay inside on chilly winter mornings, particularly if your humans are frying up turkey bacon. There is more than one way to get your fill of bird.
