Out of nowhere
my husband took over feeding Izzy.
Can you believe it?
He said I fed her too much.
What nerve.
I like a fat cat.
Give me a fat cat any day.
A cat that dines on cream and sardines
suits me.
I don’t want a lean and ravenous squirrely kind of cat
prowling and lurking and hunting scraps.
I don’t trust those skinny cats.
They would just as soon suck the breath out of you
as look you in the eye.
