My wife likes cats. No, that is not the right wording at all. My wife LOVES cats. I, on the other hand, just think cats are ok. This brings on a philosophical difference in our lives that I thought would be fun to share.

So, if you ever wanted a cat, just let me know. We have more than a few and what my wife doesn’t know won’t hurt her.
Honey? If you’re reading this, don’t worry, I’m only joking about giving your cats away. Or am I?
