Summary

Cat dads are the solution to masculinity, misogyny, and maybe world peace. That's the thesis from a pregnant straphanger who tells Kareem that men who choose cats over dogs have to "work for affection" and learn boundaries, patience, and respect. Cats teach their dads the same lessons women wish more men understood. She's got receipts too: JD Vance and Andrew Tate both hate cats. Her own cat dad journey led to marriage and a baby on the way, proof that feline companionship works. Kareem agrees with the prescription. The rider sums it up: "More cat dads, world peace, we end misogyny, no more crime, better men, better world." No notes. She ate and left no crumbs, just like her kitty cat.

So, what's your take? We need more cat dads. 100% agree. More cat dads all the way. I have two cats and they're the loves of my lives. We are in a masculinity crisis in this country. I feel like men don't know how to be. Men are too manly. They don't know if they should be too manly or if they should be softer or like how to behave in the world without getting like judged or cancelled. And I think that cat dads are a really good model of how to be.

So, you think a cat comes into a man's life and it changes the man for the better? Yes, because they're choosing the pet who's not going to greet them at the door without them doing anything for it. They have to work for affection. They have to learn their little signals and like what they like and don't like. And also like respecting boundaries and being patient and like accepting you for how you are and like if it's a little chaotic, you just kind of got to deal with it. The cat can teach the man just based on how a cat has this personality that's kind of like a woman. I agree 100%. I woke up one day and I said, "I need to become a better person. My life feels empty and worthless." I was in a deep-seated depression. Couldn't get out of bed. Went on the internet, found cat. And did it make you better? Yeah, it worked really well. I'm married and have a baby now.

If you hate cats in general, what kind of person are you? You're a loser. Who notoriously hates cats? Evil people. JD Vance and Andrew Tate. Loser. Doesn't that tell you everything?

What other lessons do you learn from from being a cat daddy? Kindness and not taking yourself too seriously. Some silliness. I think more cat dads, world peace, we end misogyny, no more crime, better men, better world.

I noticed that you're pregnant. I am. Does baby daddy come with a little furry feline creature? Yes, my baby daddy is a cat dad. All baby daddies should be cat dad.

I think so. I think before you have a kid, you should get a cat because the cats are unpredictable. Like a baby. Yeah. Cute little boogers. I think that ultimately uh a cat dad accepts you for who you are and they understand that loving someone is about meeting them where they're at and accepting them for who they are and that's like a respect thing too and I think that that is something that we are lacking in this world in the world today. Amen. Yeah. No notes. Thank you. She ate and left no crumbs. Thank you. Just like my kitty cat. Just like cat.
