Befriend Quote by Laurence Sutton

“(First tip: do not own or befriend cats, they only form unnecessary emotional bonds and, unlike dogs, will not come to your aid at a crucial moment. They may also join forces with the zombies at the first opportunity to take revenge on you for your giving them a name like Mittens).” quote by Laurence Sutton
