Dear Mel Dawn of the Dead


Thank you for sending us your short story, “Zombie Cats of the Apocalypse”.

While we do enjoy a good zombie story, this wasn’t it.

We also take exception to the phrase, “90% of the adult human population is already infected with the Toxoplasma gondii cat parasite, and hence are already zombies due to the fact that placing a mustache on a cat will result in the human’s voices descending into a monotone of “who is a cute liddle widdle kitty cat now?”

We also suggest that you go back to school and take a grammatical course as I’m fairly certain that a zombie cat would not say “you look meowalushus today hoomin,” but rather, “You look meowalicious today human”.

The editors at the Zombie Cat Anthology do not wish you the best in your writing endeavors and suggest that you give up writing altogether and find a job at Walmart.

Best regards,
Edwina the Editor
