meow

Nature is mocking me. As I was parking my bike, I saw a black cat lying motionless in one of the parking lots. It was an extremely odd place for a cat to be at. I assumed it was dead as it lying face up, perhaps it had been killed by a vehicle so I went closer to take a look.

True enough it wasn't moving, then I saw a twitch. I approached a little closer and sure enough it opened its eyes. What happened next truly takes the cake. While lying in that vulnerable awkward position, she stuck out her tongue at me then proceeded to fall back asleep. I was flabbergasted. Am I not big enough? Am I not close enough to be perceived as a threat? I mean where the fuck is my respect?

I approached even closer still and shouted HEY! The response? Not even a flinch, she just stole a peek and promptly ignored me. I was totally disgusted with this cat. I had half a mind to toss her into the drain but somehow I couldn't do it and I think she knew that too. The irony of this situation was not lost on me.
