Hey tRump, if you want a wall so badly, why don’t you build it yourself…

In which my pussycat is sort of a dickcat…

I do apologize for that title, but hey, the cat stole not only Koa’s bed, but his ball too. Then she swiped at the dog whenever he got close. Koa was very upset… SQUIRREL!!! The cat was like; ‘hey, the … Continue reading
