Recognition for people who identify as felines?

Miaow?

When our granddaughter was at senior school, there was a girl there who sometimes identified as a cat. This was accepted by teachers and students alike.

Haven't read the article but there is no a finer creature to identify as imo, the ancient Egyptians deemed them as Gods, they were right they are! which is why they have staff, unlike dogs who merely have owners.

Yes I saw this article too. Littlejohn is always great for a laugh.

I'd love to be a cat. But I'm more of a Labrador

Thank you for this thread Avalon

With everything going on in my life, and that of the country, this is just the get out (ahem) clause that I need.
Goodbye cruel world, mine’s a pint of Iams! ?

My ex used to spout a load of old theory about reincarnation and rebirth.
He asked me what I would come back as, and I said a cat.

old idea....anyone remember Dharma and Greg? Teller out ot the magic duo Penn and Teller played a man who identified as a cat in an episode

When I was little, I had a pet cat and I called her Rowena ?

I love cats.
I sort of wish someone would dump a kitten on my doorstep, so I'd be "forced" to take it in and spoil it.

I have that fantasy too MissA
I already have a dog and a cat, but I’d still love another cat

Dogs think they're human
Cats think they're Gods.

Piffle
I think I m a cupboard today

Mental health wards used always to have a few patients who claimed to be Julius Caesar. Have cats taken the emperor's place?

I think I'm a fridge.
Please place your chocolate here.

Nope!,
Only healthy ingredients for you, Ms Fridge.

Where I live now I can’t have a cat. I call my son’s cat my grandcat.

And a good wash down with hot soapy water with a touch of bleach. We can't have you developing mould, can we? We'd better switch you off at the plug while we do that, water and electricity are a bad combination.

We had better check her drawers aren't wet, too.

Surely they don't limit their demands to respect for felines?
I'm a sloth today and sometimes I'm a gorilla.
Animal Kingdom rights are Human rights!
(or something)

I live close to a road..
I have had cats in the past, and they never came to any harm, but I can't bear the thought that they might get run over.
Saying that, there are lots of cats that wander around this area, and are fine.

Reading this thread reminded me that years ago when at grammar school there was a girl in the same year who was convinced she had been a Cavalier spaniel belonging to King Charles 11.
She did have a look of one,having long red curly hair that hung round her face and big brown eyes. She had a very gentle way with her and I don’t remember anyone teasing her she was just one of the girls.
Haven’t thought about her for years so thank you OP for bringing the memory back.

I'm going to identify as a meercat. Just no ordinary cat you know ?

Actually that looks more like a mouse!
