Too real. It’s not just that they’re there. It’s those dumb little beady eyes gazing, fixated. Giving such a stubborn fully expressionless look that I can only interpret rapidly between intense moral outrage, disgust, or the worst - curiosity. And as I start to wonder why that creature has any right to judge me when they’re about to resume licking their own ass, or what a cat’s moral code might even look like to justify such seeming disappointment, the mood disappears. And having accomplished what was surely a calculated mission, the cat gets back to licking its own ass.
