Trump's callous and miserly attempts to starve millions of Americans will be the thing that finally turns the MAGA crowd against him. He takes them for granted. A lot of them depend on SNAP. What a disgusting "human" he is.

More Catvice: If a cat knows you and trusts you it will allow you to gently scratch over about 99% per cent of that creature's body and that cat will thoroughly enjoy that purrfect attention. But you really need to know the cats very, very well. Otherwise, you could lose an eye. Or two.

Some good Catvice: Cats really love being gently scratched on their chests right between their front legs. This is a place they cannot reach. All our cats love it when you scritch'em there. Be aware cats unaccustomed to this might freak out and tear you to ribbons. Pretty ribbons. Still. Ribbons.
