There are plenty of moms who go above and beyond for their kids, but one mom’s recent request has taken social media by storm. A Twitter user, @jessica_green44, posted a “wanted” sign from her dad’s workplace that stands out from the usual bulletin board fare. This mom is on the hunt to borrow an orange cat for a short span of 24-48 hours to create a memorable dinner experience with her young children. The reason? A lasagna feast reminiscent of Garfield, of course!
In the notice, the mom, named Linda, assures that the cat will be returned safe and sound. She adds a humorous touch by stating, “Cat will not be required to eat lasagna if contraindicated,” and makes it clear that feral cats are not welcome. “Please take your cat back at the end. Not looking to adopt,” she emphasizes.
How fantastic is that? It’s almost surprising that my own parents didn’t think of staging a lasagna dinner with me and a Garfield-like feline, especially since I spent so much of my childhood glued to that cartoon!
While the request alone is delightful, the responses from Twitter users are equally entertaining. Many people began offering their own orange kitties for the occasion. As someone who used to share my home with a plump orange cat, I can confidently say they are the crème de la crème of felines.
Linda, wherever you may be, I hope you found the perfect stand-in for Garfield to enjoy that lasagna dinner with your kids. Moms everywhere applaud your creativity!
