Are cats truly worthy of love?
Better people than me
have asked the question
but perhaps not answered quite so quickly:
no.

They are selfish creatures, cats.
They steal your blackberry pie
and keep the remote to themselves
and don’t pay the rent promptly in February
and are bad with putting laundry in the hopper
and I can’t even tell you about their Andrew Lloyd Webber sing-alongs!

Cats are not worthy of love.
They are not capable of love.
They are not capable of fluff, even
– nor do they remember to pick it up at the store.
I don’t think I like cats anymore.

Screw ’em.

You heard me, Cat!
