[Closed] Working cats appreciation thread

footflaps · 2021-03-30T10:13:05Z

We've not had a working cat thread for a while, so I thought I'd start one.... NB Please don't post on this thread if you have 'normal' cats, they might be identical in every way but unless you insist on using the adjective 'working' every time you mention them, they're not proper working cats. E.g. We only feed our working cats working cat food. Once a week I drive past Sainsburys, which sells normal cat food, and drive out 5 miles to the local farm shop where I buy working cat food, which is identical to normal cat food, only I bought it in a farm shop. I have to correct the lady at the till every time when she asks 'how are the cats?' and remind her that we have working cats and they are fine, busy working. She then gives me this special look that only working cats owners get. We only use a working cats vet. Sadly there aren't enough working cats in the area to fully sustain a local vet, so they also take normal cats as well. However, whenever I pop in to make an appointment for the working cats I always make sure the recpetionist writes down 'working cat' in the diary as I don't won't our cats to be confused with normal cats. She then gives me this special look that only working cats owners get. Our local vets likes seeing working cats, whenever they go for their annual working cat checkup, I always insist that he gives them a proper working cat checkup and innoculations for working cats rather than normal cats. She then gives me this special look that only working cats owners get. There's something nice about knowing you have working cats which are so much better than normal cats and it's clear from all the special looks we get that other people also appreciate the difference.
