Apparently this is a thing now — kids identifying as animals. I think it’s just plain nuts, and nuttier still that parents and schools don’t put a stop to it. And these aren’t kindergarten kids, either. When did feelings take precedence over reality? Imagine actually treating these kids like a cat. Feed them Friskies in a bowl on the floor. Sorry, Kitty, pizza is bad for cats. Cats don’t wear clothes. Cats pee in a litter box. And cats don’t go to school. oy!

Why does this not surprise me?

Long, long ago I had a young relative who asked everybody to call him "Doggie." (he was very attached to the new dog his parents had bought). BUT: he was TWO years old, AND grew out of it quickly.
It's like individuals these days can't distinguish between play and reality. And I do not believe it's helping kids one single bit.
 
Times have changed, and maybe that's not a bad thing.


IMO it shouldn't be ignored.

We've produced too many screwed-up adults that were simply told to suck it up or were riduculed for their feelings.

It seems to me that it should be investigated and discussed to get a better understanding of what the kid is experiencing and why.

They hide behind a cat persona because they can't or don't want to cope with the realities of life and want special attention. It's a way to draw attention to themselves. Now everyone is focused on the poor thing that thinks she's a cat. Her parents have to spend thousands of dollars on psychiatric therapy to get her to understand she's not a cat when she already knows it and is just yanking everyone's chain. 🤨

I'm only willing to put up with so much nonsense. My version of "therapy" is cheaper. OK, fine, you're a cat. You no longer wear clothes. You sleep in a crate. You eat only dry cat food. You poop and pee in a litter box. You stay on the floor. No climbing on the couch or bed. You don't leave the house for any reason except to go to the vet. You're a cat. Let's see how long that lasts. :rolleyes:

There was a lady who had plastic surgery to look like a cat.

I really don't believe any of this "news story". This rag is like the National Enquirer.
