I have taken the words in the title direct from the Reddit user who posted the photo because they are excellent. And the attitude of the woman is excellent. The photograph captures the moment beautifully and so it’s excellent too. I’ve seen this type of human behaviour a few times over 14 years. In other words, it is unusual. However, it is high quality behaviour, as good as it gets in the world of cats. Sometimes I would like to turn the adoption process at animal rescue centres on its head. Everybody should adopt the old, less attractive cats at the shelter first and the beautiful little kittens and the rare purebred cat come last. Let’s do that for three months of the year and see what happens. I know what would happen. There would be a lot less death at shelters in America and in other countries.
