1. I hated cats at one time. It's changed big time but I'm talking decades.

I have 3 cats was 4 and I live within a big cat loving family. They are so cool. Dogs, in which I use to love are great. But cats are the balls (I don’t know if you know what that means). Cats are the balls.

people saw dogs thought what an amazing helper and domesticated them. Cats saw humans thought free food and domesticated us.

Now the neighborhood is much quieter. Far fewer door-to-door salesmen, delivery people, postal workers, etc.....

When he fell asleep on the couch, the kitten climbed up and fell asleep on his chest. When he woke up and opened his eyes, it was Kitty the Conquerer.

Except for the three strays she adopted, fed, and made sure were safe, neutered, and warm (in Central Florida) - they didn't have the "run of the house" but the Florida Room was huge, and had a (in Central Florida) fireplace in addition to central air/heat...…. and special kitty dishes for each.

Yeah. She hated cats. They were with her when she passed, and all went to great homes after.

Two dogs and a cat die and go to heaven.


They are brought before God, who interviews them to determine their fate. He asks the first dog, "What did you do when you were alive on earth?"
The first dog answers, "For 15 years I was a guide dog for a blind person. I was killed protecting them from being hit by a taxi."
"Very good," says God. "You will sit at my left side."

God turns his attention to the second dog and asks, "What did you do when you were alive on earth?"
The second dog responds, "I was a police dog for 12 years. I was shot and killed trying to subdue an armed bank robber."
God smiles and nods. "Very good. You will sit at my right side."

God now looks at the cat and begins to ask, "What did you --"
The cat interrupts, "You're in my chair."

Thanks for posting these cat videos, catbyte.

(They're a great way to escape the daily horror that is Trump)
