Stop! Arrêtez! Hou op! Спри се! Halt! Pare! Detener! 停止! रुकें! 중지! Dur! やめる! توقف! תפסיק! Imani! Itigil! Kwụsị! Prohibere!
You get the idea. It is of the utmost importance that you stop right there—because it's Friday, and times are tough and friends are few.

Impressing friends? Check. Games night? Check. Dinner party? Check. The International Conference For Interesting Cat Facts (ICFICF)? Check. For all things four-legged, fascinating, and feline, you've come to the right place. We like to think this post has found you for a reason, in fact.
