Stuff Frances Likes: Cats




Was this really a surprise?



My earliest memories of cats was when we would visit my grandmother's house and she would feed her (the community's?) cats leftovers. She would call out "ming ming ming" and it would be the cats' cue to come and eat. Paulo, my brother, is also very fond of cats. It is probably because of him that I have this anthropormorphized, very romanticized view of cats. I feel like maybe sometimes I want to be a cat- they are cool, calm and collected, mysterious, good looking and everyone wants to hang out with a cat! And if the cat didn't want to hang out, no one would care because its a goddamn cat and thats what cats do.

This article best illustrates how I feel: Million Dollar Question: Why does the web love cats?
