Reasons Why Craig Ferguson Is A Cat

Reasons Why Craig Ferguson Is Totally A Cat

On June 1^st, 2013, Craig changed his tweety avatar to the above image of a Scottish Fold kitten wearing a tartan tam*, which reminded me of a conversation I had with a friend about how Craig is totally a cat, and that’s the real reason why he hates cats – because they remind him too much of himself! Haha! So, with that thought in mind, this happened:

• Reasons why Craig is totally a cat: Dogs want to please you. Cats don’t give a shit and mainly want to please themselves. :P
