Ayn Rand for a Sunday

Comfort Zones
I have a cat that sits in the bathtub. Stutzbearcat likes the bathtub. Can’t find him? He’s in the tub. No water – just chillin’ out in the bathtub. That’s his comfort zone. When he was a baby, he’d come into the bathroom and my husband, the bathtub guy,would rub him. Now Stutz waits for…
