Oh, you can't cry on my cat either, but he will tolerate being held closely after you get done bawling. :)

It's terribly odd, because he's a lynx point Siamese (Siamese mix w/Siamese fur but tabby points) and it's the big black one who won't sit still for that. The big black one is also the talky one. IDEK.

Oh, Lois. And after everything she survived, to be killed by a stupid, mean, cruel "human"--well, genetic human. I share her person's confusion at how anyone could do anything so mean to a little bitty cat. I had better stop thinking about it or I will start crying again.

The scariest thing in this book was not the zombies or the virus that made them. I mean, Kellis-Amberlee is scary in that you could imagine it happening to you or to people/pets you love and that's terrifying, but it doesn't hold a candle to the knowledge that there are evil people in the real world who would actually do the very human, very evil things that Tate and his asshole patrol do, if they had the power to do them. Killing Lois was one of those things, and...I've always had cats who were rescued either by me or someone else, I have strong feelings about all cats deserving a good life, but especially cats who've had more to survive!

Last night someone asked me who would be a worse president, Sarah Palin or Tate, and I told them after a moment's thought that while Tate reminds me of some of the people who support Palin, Sarah Palin is not known for her reluctance to give up power when she is done with it, and Tate, I think, would not have stopped at winning the Presidency itself--he would have found a way to make himself President-For-Life.
