An Engineer's Guide to Cats
In this caturday video, two professional engineers illustrate the proper care and practical benefits of cats.It's Caturday again! Today, I am going to dispel two myths about cats. Myth 1: Men don't have cats and Myth 2: STEM professionals do not have cats (or any pets!).
