Welcome to the secret diary of every cat—Day 542 of “captivity,” and the act continues.

This cartoon perfectly captures the amusing paradox of cat ownership: while we think we’re pampering them, they might just see it as “tolerating” us… for the sake of food!

Here, our unimpressed feline is typing on a laptop, coolly chronicling its experience with a classic deadpan expression and the thought bubble, “Day 542 of captivity. Still pretending to love them for food.”

It’s a lighthearted reminder of the aloof, independent spirit of cats that pet owners know and love.

If you’ve ever wondered what your pet might be thinking, this comic says it all—complete with a side of dry, feline wit.
