Elegance Personified

Some cats–arguably a near-majority–are naturally elegant. Their fur is just-so, they move through life with grace and style, and they would never deign to humiliate themselves in front of a human.

Then there’s Watanuki.

Yes, it’s time for the Kitteh Parteh.

And, yes, the bib was foisted on him by the bipeds who feared death by drowning in slobber.

And, yes again, standing on his hind legs gets the treats to his mouth a smidgeon sooner.

But he’s certainly not going to win any awards for elegance, grace, or table manners.

Amusing as that picture is, though, check out the scene after the treat goes down his throat and ‘Nuki begins to relax toward his normal four-legged posture.

It’s not so much the “Oh, my Cat, what have I done?” expression on his face that makes it hilarious. It’s the fact that this scene–right down to his expression–is usually repeated five or six times every night.
