Top 8 Manly and Famous Men Who Love Cats

Number 2 – Ian Somerhalder

Working like crazy from home and randomly snuggling with this tiny child… It’s so sad that superstition makes black animals up to seven times less likely to be adopted. Let’s stop this please. Let’s love these beautiful dark creatures. Can you go to an animal shelter this weekend and adopt one? Please? Make them part of your family and take care of them? I would if I could but I have a full house hold of furry creatures. Superstitions may be fun as a joke with friends however leaving these animals without love and allowing them to be euthanized is not. Just like Stevie Wonder said: “When you believe in things that you don’t understand Then you suffer-superstition ain’t the way…” Go adopt please! Love them! Send me pictures!
