Your cat would make rude comments about your weight if it were capable of human speech, it has been confirmed.
Four-year-old tabby cat Wayne Hayes is limited to expressing his disdain for your body through scratches and tail flicks, but clearly thinks you could stand to lose a pound or seven.
Cat whisperer Mary Fisher said: “See how he arches his back and coughs up a fur ball when you open a packet of crisps? That’s his way of saying: ‘Give it a rest, lard-arse.’
“And the way he does an exaggerated bounce when you sit on the sofa? It speaks for itself but that’s him calling you a fat fuck. Hey, don’t shoot the messenger, I’m just saying what your cat and everyone else is thinking.
“Wayne isn’t exactly slender himself though, so maybe he’s projecting his internalised fatphobia onto you. That sounds like hypocritical dickhead behaviour, but remember it’s a cat we’re dealing with here.
“Either that or it’s the barrel-shaped bastard’s petty revenge for that one evening when you fed him five minutes later than usual. Cats never forgive their owners for that shit.”
Of course.
Mary Fisher's an (imaginary) asshat. Wayne Hayes shows disdain for anyone of any size.
ReplyDeleteCats specialise in disdain, I believe.

Cats rule, humans drool, if you think not, then you're a fool. I think they have this living thing down pat. Kizzes.
ReplyDeleteThis is why cats and I have never got on. Too alike. Jx
DeleteI love cats for this very reason and so much more.
ReplyDeleteYou need a "familiar" to practice your arcane arts... Jx
DeleteI thought you were going to tell us that you'd got a cat! Or that a cat had got you.

Any cat that tries to get me, gets "got". We keep a spray-bottle in the garden reserved for them, and for the squirrels. Jx
