The Merc‘s Head Cat Lady, Alison Hallett, is taking today off, but she didn’t want to leave you hanging without any Cat Friday love. So, she passed on this video, which appears to be of a young Alison giving her first book review, with the same skills of perception and eloquence that she brings to the book review section of the paper every week. Please enjoy:
“I want pie! I want beef jerky!”

This post contains 100% of your daily recomended dosage of kitties.
Graham, it’s kinda awesome that you’re playing offense with the Friday comment threads. Good luck.
That said, you’re also wrong about this meeting one’s kitty quota, as no such thing exists.
I think last night’s Office meets anybody’s kitty quota for the month.
Kittttttttehhhhhhhs.
KITTTEEEEHSHSs.

Jesus Christ, A cat. Fix your bot. It’s posting this crap on posts about cats.
Also, your link appears to lead to some malware. Anti-virus software didn’t like that page. And it crashed my browser.
Gramah, you need to find your computers “system32” file. Once you do, delete it. It’s causing all the trouble. Sry.
