god I just want to sit in the middle of that crowd of cats and make kissy noises at them and have them occasionally acknowledge me and accept skritchies
catspeak: Look man, I'm tellin' ya, it'll work. Just go in the door and annoy them till they feed you. I'll go in 2 hours later and pretend it never happened.
I had a grey tabby named Lucy. She was a wiz at sneaking out, and I would frequently get calls from neighbors and friends telling me she'd been spotted, and to come get her from under their house or out of their doghouse or whatever.
Got a call one day, "hey, man, Lucy's over here, I tried to get her for you, but she's acting all mean"
I went and got her, and sure as shit, she's being just hateful. She's normally sweet, but it's super hot outside, and the yard she was in had a dog and it might have freaked her out. So I take her home, and she hides. Over the next three days whenever she comes out of hiding she alternates between being my sweet little baby Lucy, to being the spawn of an ancient demon bent on the destruction of mankind (and their upholstery). Hissing, scratching, biting... Just weird and crazy.
After about 3 days, I'm sitting in my mom's room and she's laying there in my lap, being so sweet. I'm telling my mom I think we need to take her to the vet because of the mood swings. We're actively calling to make the appointment for her when Lucy walks into the room and starts trying to shred the blankets.
I have a grey cat and so does my friend. Is it common for grey cats to be incredibly docile and chill? Both of these cats have no problem with being picked up and smooched & cuddled & carried around like fluffy widdle beebees.
Our grey is incredibly docile and chill unless you're prey to her then she will dismember you and bring you inside as an offering to her giant clumsy odd looking cat-friends who obviously are incapable of hunting for themselves.
Every time I see an orange cat about the same weight as my old orange can it triggers a subconscious why do they have a picture of my cat reflex for a microsecond.
So, if Catception is supposed to be a joining of Inception and Cat, wouldn't that, instead, require a cat inside another cat inside of another cat, and etc? I don't see cats inside other cats, here!

Pretty sure the "at least 4 separate" are carefully chosen words, and it only makes it funnier.

Its called a standard issue cat! I have one of those! And she's the sweetest little thing.
Edit: I thought a standard issue cat was any cat that you cant distinguish from other cats with similar patterns or colors.

Lucy walked into the room.
Lucy was laying in my lap.
What the actual fuck.
I had straight up kidnapped someone's cat.

Lucky you, mine chooses violence and chaos constantly. Gotta get her spayed, hoping that helps! She's still young too.
