one of our kittens has taken to sitting quietly in our living room next to a wastebasket, resting her chin on the lip, and peering down into it for minutes at a time

because of the ennui, presumably

how’d she even get a packet of gauloises and a tiny beret

@beep If you think we don’t give the cat a little French accent when she’s in these moods (“lahf ees sheet … even le neck skritches ’ave become a ’atefool degradation … zees fookeeng birds viz ze chorp chorp chorp, zey know nossing, nossing … [takes a lazy drag on her cat cigarette]”), you’re being naïve.

@vruba i can neither confirm nor deny that i refer to the kittens’ occasional slapfights as Les Quatre Cents Coups, no further questions please
