Ask McFartnuggets: “Why Does My Cat Always Show Me His Butthole?”

Cats are known for their eyes
including their third eye.

Dear McFartnuggets: 

My cat Jerome shows me his butthole every day since I got him a year ago. He never misses a DAY. Why does he do this? What does he think I’m supposed to be seeing there? I’ve looked more than a few times and it’s just okay. His butthole is nothing to write home about. I don’t know why he’s so proud of it. -- Genevieve from Palo Alto, California

Dear Genevieve:

Why does the homeless guy at the bus terminal show ME his butthole everyday? Some people just like doing that kind of thing. Have you ever shown someone your butthole before? It’s rather exhilarating. Don’t judge him until you’ve tried it. Plus, he’s a cat. When you’re a cat you’re accidentally showing your butthole to people on a damn near constant basis. When that’s such a big part of your life you may as well embrace it and be comfortable with your body. Anus presentation is also a part of communication for cats. The cat doesn’t truly understand the distinction between humans and other cats so he’ll show your his ass thinking you can sense the pheromones it’s expelling. The polite thing to do is just take a whiff and compliment the cat otherwise you might hurt its feelings. Again, just like the hobo at the bus terminal.
