You would do well to remember that cats are the agents of Satan. They will twine around your ankles in the hope that you will stumble and crack your head open so they can lap up your blood. They will also smother a sleeping infant to death if given the opportunity. When they jump on your lap and start kneading your thighs, they are calculating how long they can live off your corpse should you die. And you will. It has been proven that all cat owners die eventually. Even I know that. ---

I have often speculated that, as cats are our rulers after all, they manipulated us humans into creating the internet as a tool that’s ultimate purpose is in storing pictures of cats. ---
