Transcript

I really feel like an intense amount of guilt when I think about the fact that my little kitties spend their lives in this apartment even though they have really good lives. Like I feed them three times a day, give them lots of catnip, make sure all the windows are open, give them lots of cuddles, like they're happy cats, but I just can't help but feel. I feel guilty as fuck, man.
