Another reason to HATE GW Bush!
I remember reading a profile about W way back in 2000. Though only one cat, I believe, made the move to DC with them, they had several that were living with them in Texas—and it was the then-governor’s job to feed them.
IIRC though they had both dogs and cats, from the interview it sounded as if W himself might actually have been more a cat person than a dog person.
