Change

Quote_1.png
Cathy Guisewite

Career

Life

Quote_1.png

Thought

Quote_1.png
Cathy Guisewite
"A lot of married people certainly have wonderful relationships with their dogs, but when you're single and your dog is the only other living thing in your house, it's a really special relationship which I wanted CATHY to have."
