As a Black Cat, It’s Hard to Live Up to the October Hype

“Crossing your path to bring you bad luck leaves me little time for the things I truly love, like licking my butt.”

Being a black cat in October is not all it’s cracked up to be. People keep telling me it’s “my time to shine,” but you know what? I’m a CAT. I have priorities.

Before I get around to placing irreversible curses on you and yours, there are a few important things I must do first:

1. Lick my butt.

No one can clean my butt hole better than me. This task must be performed ritualistically every 289 minutes.

Even though I spend many hours in solitude, when butt-licking commences, I will need to find the most crowded room available and plop myself in the middle of it.

Butt-licking is a spectator sport.

2. Sniff this cat’s butt:

He looks sketch, no?

I need butt-related intel on him.

3. Sleep.
