Why all the cats and books

In response to all the photos I am seeing of cats (supposedly cute, but whatever) and books on social media lately I give you Colin the reading dog.

He reads!

And then contemplates what he has read.

I would also like to say this was completely unstaged. I wast reading "The Thackery T. Lambshead Cabinet of Curiosities" got up and came back to this. I believe he quite enjoyed to book, as did I.
