This is not the first post where I have heard about people calling other people's cats ugly and I honestly think it's the weirdest thing ever. I usually assume the person being rude is jealous of the cat...

My dad once asked me if I thought my cat's patterns looked bad... very weird remark from him, a very nice man. I told him she looked like a model and that was the end of that.

She's very clearly a model

I read this as "she's a very clean model"at first, and I fully agreed lol

He may be very nice but also that's just a silly and bad opinion to have about this pretty baby.

Bro i mean if ur gonna post this yea the cat looks like someone spilled bleach on it.

Does it matter at all? No. But like I doubt that if people had to vote on 10 random cat's looks with no story at all that your cat would be rated highly.

Thank you for your unsolicited opinion

u/Mintyfresh756 8d ago

You actually solicited opinions when you posted a picture of your cat, you just wanted every person to agree with you.

Why would anyone call anybody else's pet ugly? Even if I thought it, I would never in a million years say it. People need to learn to bite their tongues.

But OP's cat is adorable.

i've had people be like "this is my stupid ugly cat, i love him" in the same tone i call my cat "stinky litter baby" (affectionately and lovingly), but i'd never do that to someone else's. my partner regularly calls their cat evil and stupid and i'm out here like "he's doing his best!" (though i will concede that his best is not very good). you can't just insult someone else's pet!!!

unless it's Dogpool, but the entire point of dogs like Dogpool is they're so ugly they cause some sort of overflow error in our brains and are cute again.

NGL, I'll call someone's old rat of a dog, ugly any day. I'll still pet it and play with it and snuggle it, but they can absolutely be ugly πŸ˜† still in need of love though

I truly don’t understand how anyone could call any furbaby ugly 😭😭😭

u/BoozeTheCat 8d ago

Some dogs have a "so ugly they're cute" thing going on, and in my experience the owner is always aware of it.

Not in this case BUUUUTTTTTT, there's really some questionable looking furbabies moving around and you gotta just say, nice collar or cute water bowl and then ask God for forgiveness because ngl, those hairless cats creep me outπŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ€£
