I just found Hunter S. Thomcat (rotund, ginger monster) lazing on a box that he was literally caving in and giggled and took out my phone to take a picture:
And Hunter gave me the look that he gave me above and then huffily got up to read whatever I obviously thought was so funny.
And then he looked at me like, “Is this funny to you, lady?” and I stopped laughing because can he read upside down? And then he huffed and looked back down again and RIPPED OFF THE STICKER.
And at that point I was like, “Hunter, I owe you an apology. I get it. No problematic labels for you, friend. My bad.” But then he immediately started EATING THE STICKER and bit me when I tried to fish it out of his mouth while yelling, “STOP EATING THINGS THAT WILL KILL YOU” and he was like “I DO WHAT I WANT” and now I’ve changed my mind completely and am sharing this because I have never related more to a cat in my whole life.
PS. The box is full of weight-control cat food and rice cakes that neither of us want and now I’m wondering what stickers taste like.
I love Hunter S. Tomcat. So relatable.
Eat that f*ing sticker for all of us, Hunter!
I’m also heavy Hunter. Thanks for the laugh
A lot of the time cats are much more interesting than humans!
1st -Hilarious!!
2nd – He actually looks so hurt/offended in the last pic that it kinda hurts your heart.
Sweet smart ball-o-fluff 💕😸
Hunter S. Tomcat is all of us.
Live your truth, Hunter S. Tomcat!
If cats had opposable thumbs that would rule the world.
This made me laugh out loud. Thank you and thanks to Hunter S. ♥♥♥
The thinner rice cakes with some garlic hummus are delicious.
Thanks for documenting your tale with pictures, because, you know, it’s possible that maybe, just maybe, some skeptical people would not believe that actually happened without proof. It’s actually a little bit hard to believe it happened, even WITH proof… although I would definitely believe the part about your cat biting you, since my cat bites me regularly, with or without a sticker or any other object in her mouth. Thanks for sharing this and so many other gems with us.
Every moment of this was awesome.
He is deeply offended that you would think he was heavy. He expects much bowing and scraping and many treats and belly rubs to atone for this grievous action.
OMG, hunter is just as funny and relatable as you are, I laughed so hard. Sometimes Jenny, I think you should be declared a saint, or a highly value celestial bring or some such. Now I believe Hunter should be as well.
I think your ginger boy and my ginger boy would get along like a house on fire. Stories like this make it clear that my sister is right and all orange cats share a brain cell.
Tell Hunter S. that Goose (Goosius Dorkus Dudicus) says hello, in case he can’t tell telepathically through the shared brain cell.
This confirms my theory that cats are an alien, sentient race studying humans. They test us by letting us see signs of their intelligence and by knocking cups and glasses with liquid in them off tables.
You played your cards a little too well, Hunter S. Thomcat. But don’t worry, I won’t tell anybody.
This is excellent and hilarious and not surprising to me at all. Kudos for managing those photos! I would have been telling the story to people who definitely didn’t believe it happened.
♡♡♡
I just love how much he communicates with you and you understand him. He’s a grumpy old cat who doesn’t like being laughed at and is being made to eat diet food and he expressed his displeasure by eating the offensive sticker, which probably tastes much nicer than the diet food. I understand completely his resentment towards the whole thing!
Orange tabbies have the attitude thing down! Every orange tabby cat I’ve ever met had this personality.
And black and white cats are the sweetest personalities. My vet told me that, and I agree.
Genius boi
I wish I could leave a pic of my rotund half Maine coon (is 25lbs still considered rotund? I think we’re past rotund) ginger club trash panda, Linkin Pawk, ‘reading’ the signs I taped to our umteenth new screen door – saying to the effect -he was too big to climb the damn screen and I can’t keep buying new doors all willy nilly, mama, is not made of $$.
Ps: are the stickers good? I’ll take a few if they’re not half bad. 😉
Must be an orange cat thing. Mine loves to eat anything with glue on it, too!
Produce stickers are edible, for just in case you eat one. The paper and glue on them are both edible.
Hunter is obviously a genius level ginger. Also a cat.
I would think that they taste really…sticky.
(sorry, someone had to say it)
Is that Hunter’s red leash?
Hunter is all of us right now!
Orange boys are the best!
And they only come in size large.
(My orange boy is 17lbs and can put his front paws on the kitchen counter when he stands up on his hind feet.)
ps: In regards to watercolors, you should look into watercolor pencils. You use them to color like pencils, then brush water over the drawing. Like the paint with water books.
Love it! Thank you! And when one is pulling stickers out of one’s cat’s mouth, one must LIFT CAREFULLY!
I have long loved Hunter S. Thomcat, and now I love him EVEN MORE. And I’m so glad to see there are many other BFOC* fans here. My sweet BFOC Jack has been gone for about nine months now, and I miss him so much.
*Big Fat Orange Cat
Stickers taste like rice cakes. Don’t eat the stickers.
But I discovered that Skinny cow ice cream sandwiches have the same calories as 2 rice cakes so I’m team ice cream sandwiches. Tell hunter.
Perfect responses all around.
I, too, have a large-like cat. When the vet asked me if I was giving Noodle too many treats, I said, “She’s just a large boned cat, a full figure feline.” The look the vet gave me would stop a full back from breaking into the open. But then Noodle hissed at her. I have warned my friends and family not to fat shame Noodle. She still has her claws. Me, too…
HA! hahahahahahaha!
And, CAN he read upside down? 🙂 hahahahahahha!
Hunter is my soulmate.
Just when I thought I couldn’t love Hunter more. Best cat ever. He needs extra lap time today to make up for this. Love you both. And I’m sorry about the rice cakes. They’re the worst. ❤️
You and Hunter just made my day. I love the look he gave you. And of course he can read upside down! Orange cats can do anything! My mother had a large Orange cat who once stood up on his hind legs and had a fist fight with her. I swear I am not making this up and I’m not on any good drugs. Lol
I’m in love with you both.
Thanks for making me smile today.
Love this. He’s a handsome boy.
My cat Doodle LOVES adhesives of any kind: stickers, tape, packing tape. They are so weird!
I would love to pick up and squish Hunter S. Tomcat. I bet he has a monster purr. I like rice cakes if they’re caramel flavored but the plain ones are awful. Hummus is yummy though.
Cats are the best. And Huter is a cutie.
we are Hunter S. Tomcat! thank you!
I love this in so many ways! Jenny bless all yawls’ hearts!
That’s hysterical! Cats are awesome. Thanks for the laugh this dreary morning
Howling laughing at that one…..Glue might taste better than low cal anything! what a puss….
We are all Hunter sometimes. I love big orange idiot boy-cats. My Lennon was a cross between a throw-pillow, a dog, and a cat… and had a mafia name of Fats Calzone because of course he did.
omg…Baaaaaahaahahahahahahahaha 🥰🤘🙌 HSTC, you rock!
OMG this is the wildest thing I’ve ever seen. I don’t know what’s worse: that he knew you were shaming him or he decided to sit on the box of diet food so it couldn’t be opened…hahhaa
I love this so much. It made me actually laugh out loud and reconsider if I’m a cat person after all. The pics combined with the narrative are just perfect.
Yet another cat using that “no opposable thumbs, sorry!“ to live a life of leisure. That interaction’s almost eerie. Hunter get all the world’s missing orange brain cells‽
I love your cat
you’ve heard of scratch n sniff stickers? Hear me out. Scratch and eat stickers
Too funny!
Thank you for making me laugh long and loud today, I needed that 😄🌷🌷💖
Hunter S. Tomcat: Nom nom nom!!!
Oh my ALLAH , this is pure feline chaos and I love it! Here’s your comment:
Just witnessed the ultimate act of feline defiance from my ginger chonk, Hunter S. Thomcat. Dude was sprawled on a box like a furry pancake, and I had the audacity to laugh and snap a picture. Cue the judgemental glare worthy of a grumpy gargoyle. He then proceeds to perform a dramatic reading of the sticker on the box, clearly offended by my amusement.
Then came the question, delivered with a raised eyebrow (or should I say, whisker twitch): “Hilarious, Karen? Is this supposed to be funny?” My laughter sputtered out. Seriously, can cats read upside down? Undeterred, Mr. Whiskers huffed and ripped the sticker off with the grace of a toddler peeling wallpaper. Oops, maybe not such a good idea to laugh…
“Alright, alright,” I surrendered, “mea culpa, furry overlord. No more offensive labels.” But wait, what’s this? The sticker bandit is now chowing down on his forbidden fruit! Before I could even scream “plastic bad!”, I got a love tap (read: bite) for my troubles. “I make my own rules, lady!” he seemed to declare.
And that’s how I found myself completely enamored with this mischievous floofball. Never have I related to a cat on such a spiritual level. Now, I’m left wondering two things: 1) What exactly do stickers taste like? and 2) Where can I get a tiny “Do What I Want” cat t-shirt? Asking for a friend… (who may or may not be a rotund ginger menace).
P.S. I hope the rice cakes weren’t the victim of your cat’s sticker-snacking rampage!

That’s a hilarious story! It sounds like Hunter S. Thomcat has quite a personality. I can totally relate to the frustration of trying to stop a cat from eating something dangerous. It’s great that you were able to laugh it off and appreciate his unique character.
