Cats Quote by Amber Lynn Perry
““So, you don’t care for squirrels, I take it.” He flashed his straight white teeth when he laughed again. “Oh no, she doesn’t.” Kitty answered, standing and brushing off her skirts as well. Pursing her lips, Eliza sent her sister a look that said, “That’s enough.” Wisely, Kitty complied, but not before her face bloomed into another taunting grin.””
