Description
Cats are like potato chips: you can’t have just one!
One cat, two cat, three cats, four. And then, like an atomic bomb, the number explodes exponentially.
Is there a proper number of cats?
Nah. There isn’t. The number of cats you need is directly proportional to the number of cats you currently have.
[According to latest, peer reviewed, double-blind research, the optimum number of cats for a fulfilling relationship is 6.]
Cats:
Depending on who you ask, they are the epitome of evil, the cutest thing alive, satan’s babies, ninjas, ninja-satan-babies, those animals they don’t give two cruds about, living rugs, fur with claws, claws with fur, teeth with fur and claws, teeth with claws, teeth with fur, fur with teeth, what you shouldn’t step on, the stupidest things alive, the future world rulers, the things trying to kill you in your sleep, the things trying to protect you from the things trying to kill you in your sleep, aliens, carnivorous monsters, little angels, everyone’s best friend, the bane of all existence, the thing that sits on you at three in the morning, or just a cat.
