Legs so long you had to ask for directions at the kneecaps.

I may irk some people by saying this, but if she would have been a "Trans-kitty" and done the exact same thing it would have been hailed as "brave"...

Definitely had an unfair advantage! My two cats weren't quite happy that she told them to get the jab though.

I don't speak cat as well as I should but it sounded like something about NLM (nine lives matter) and diversity is our stray-ngth (maybe a feral cat?)

Fake cat imposters..mmm could they be trying to infiltrate?

1. To pass (troops for example) surreptitiously into enemy-held territory.

2. To penetrate with hostile intent.

3. To enter or take up positions in gradually or surreptitiously as for the purposes of espionage

or takeover.

I mean, what real cat would enter a "dog and pony show" beauty pageant and tell people to get jabbed? Pinky, now there's a genuine feline!

1. She’s insanely hot.

2. When she did her “meme” my cat was all attention, undivided and intense.

You are becoming more relevant by the day. Are we being taken over by catz or what?

I was stumped about the feline PM so natch I examined the interwebs. I discovered a true catvocate in the Israeli Knesset: https://www.timesofisrael.com/mk-booted-for-meowing-brandishing-cat-doll-during-budget-vote/. Granted, he is not YET PM, but hey - we have a stuffed animal for a president so...

But back to Miss India. Chicky's got talent. I love how she added the supplicating bended paw. Crutial to her winning AND getting warm milk and petting from Steve Harvey. How he held a straight face???

Watched it 3 times, missed the cat thing each time. Is it really there? Otoh, Miss India is something. Did she win?

She woke up a sofa full of sleeping cats, but they mostly went right back to sleep so either her rabble rousing didn't work, or my cats have already been 'read in'.

I don't suppose you remember when the founding leader of the Monster Raving Loony Party in the UK died, a marmalade cat stepped in on a temporary basis as leader of the party. Unfortunately the cat had handed (pawed?) over to a human by the time of the next election.

Finland's Prime Minister makes a passable cat woman (see google images. I did not include the URL because it seemed longer than this entire comment thread.). Her name is Sanna Marin, instead of more typical unpronounceable to foreigners without much practice. 🙂

I don't know about the present topic, but I can remember a time when beauty pageant winners didn't require a genetic test. Case in point: this year's Miss Nevada was, I believe, a Mr. Ye gods, what odd times we do live in!

I'm fairly sure that space alien that put on a brown wig has never actually seen a cat before, and the data files on xir ship were partially damaged or something.
