Every cat owner is aware of the rules of cat ownership. A TikTok user who goes by “hswawrawwhsaptwwotebro” emphasized this fact. We’re unsure what the abomination of letters spells nor how to pronounce it, so we will shorten it to “the king’s servant.” The rule is that a cat owner must not move if a cat is lying upon them. One must not disturb the cat for bathroom or meal breaks, nor going to work. Thems the rulez!

When the king’s servant called to inform her boss of the dilemma, he threatened to fire her. The sheer audacity of the boss to think that they had the power to override cat law! He has obviously never had to answer to a cat monarch who rules with iron claws. The punishment will be swift if the king’s servant even attempts to move.
Although the cat lap rule might be the most well-known, there are many more. Nancy Parrish outlines the ten main rules in a post on Medium. The cat lap rule is number one, so if you have work to do, it must wait. Period. Our heroine, the king’s servant, sent proof of her predicament.

Those two photos are pretty definitive proof. The cat is pinning the servant, so she cannot possibly go to work. With undeniable proof, how could the boss not authorize a day off without ramifications? The image of the cat on his throne further proves the gravity of this situation. This is a serious cat monarch.
Please share if your legs have fallen asleep while waiting on a cat to move.
NOTE: Our heroine is not at risk of termination. This post is on TikTok for comedic effect.
