CATS ARE THE BEST! PURR!
Funniest one yet!
My cats are a beautiful part of my life and of everyone who comes to my home. Their affection is not forced on anybody — it’s there if you want it. In my home my family, friends and neighbors all relate to each other on a purely human level — the cats are in the background — and often end up in one’s lap! Meow!

He is a superb cartoonish, a vanishing species.
