Audio: Listen to me explain the medical reasons for Grumpy Cat’s face

Please click on the audio player immediately below (click the little triangle at the left of the bar below these words) and listen to my explanation for why Grumpy Cat – aka Tardar Sauce – has the facial expression that she has.

This is an alternative file type if the player fails:

This is a new way to present information. I thought I would give it a try. Words can be a bit tiresome in a busy world. It can be easier to grab a cup of tea and listen for 7 minutes, which is not a long time. The concept is to make life easier for the visitor.

However, on a technical level, I don’t know if the audio file will play on the computers of all visitors. There may be technical glitches.

For that reason, I would appreciate some feedback on playability and on what I say. I am not a talented speaker. I am adequate. If I can get the message across in a convenient way, I am happy. That is all I expect.

Here are two relevant pages on this subject:

1. The original Grumpy cat article that has over 180 comments. I don’t have time to read them all. I don’t need to read them all because my argument is based in first principles not details. All the criticisms are fine arguments justifying what I consider to be exploitation. They don’t address the basic principles that I refer to in the audio file. They, therefore, lack relevance to me.
2. A page on the medical conditions that are associated with feline dwarfism. This page was used in the making of the audio file. This page was written about 6 years ago and it is still good and found by Google.
