Cats and Marijuana. If you think they have nothing in common, you’re dead wrong.

Cats. Innocuous at first …ditto marijuana. Once you’re hooked, there’s no going back …ditto marijuana. Introduce you to a whole world you never realized existed (ditto).

Growing up I was never into cats – or marijuana.

No animals were harmed in the taking of this picture. Katie says she never inhaled.
