What’s wrong with it?

Poorolddaddypig · 16/12/2019 11:36

I think it’s fine? Confused

Lookingforpizza · 16/12/2019 11:37

I don't mind it but I can see why you're upset, your other half should know the types of cards etc you like. I've had some shockers from my DP but I just laugh

It looks like a pink dead cat

Hideous in what way?

ohwheniknow · 16/12/2019 11:37

I wouldn't send it.

Ninkanink · 16/12/2019 11:38

Well I wouldn’t have picked it, but I don’t think it’s hideous.

ToastyFingers · 16/12/2019 11:39

I like it.

19lottie82 · 16/12/2019 11:40

I don’t know if I’d say hideous but it’s pretty shit 😂

HappyDinosaur · 16/12/2019 11:40

Don't think it's that bad. Do you particularly like cats and he was trying to get you something personal?

ActualHornist · 16/12/2019 11:40

I don’t think it’s hideous, but it looks dead Confused. It would be nice if it was just a cute cat!

rubyismyworld · 16/12/2019 11:41

I don’t like it at all! Awful!

transformandriseup · 16/12/2019 11:45

The colours are hideous. Is the cat dead?

recklessruby · 16/12/2019 11:46

I dont like it either. I m a big cat lover and it looks dead.
Maybe a clumsy attempt at humour to say you re great? Confused

AryaStarkWolf · 16/12/2019 11:50

Meh it's just a card, I'd probably have gotten a laugh out of it

recrudescence · 16/12/2019 11:50

Is the cat meant to look dead? Because I agree with you and others, it definitely does look like an illustration explaining rigor mortis.

CSIblonde · 16/12/2019 11:51

It looks like a dead dog tbh. Not very cat like. Its not very appealing visually: miserable colours.

drinkygin · 16/12/2019 11:52

Can’t imagine being particularly arsed over a card to be honest. Are you really upset about it or is this lighthearted?

Crunchymum · 16/12/2019 11:53

I don't get it?

Ellisandra · 16/12/2019 11:54

The context of a message saying that you’re great, plus the fact that cat corpse cards are not a thing, means YABU getting upset over it looking dead. (it doesn’t, to me)

I hear that Monets sell for millions. Personally don’t like the blurry colours and boring flower subject.

He’s just missed the mark with the type of artwork that you like.

Hideous to you, yes. But I hope you’ve not been ungrateful. My husband and I would be able to say to each other though “love that you got me a card - but WTF to that pic?”

kalinkafoxtrot45 · 16/12/2019 11:55

It’s humpty but I couldn’t get upset about it.

GuppytheCat · 16/12/2019 11:56

I took it to be a falling cat rather than a dead cat - hence the Meow

BalsamicVin · 16/12/2019 11:57

The things people moan about 😂😂😂😂

GabsAlot · 16/12/2019 11:57

your the cats meow nothing wrong with it

labazsisgoingmad · 16/12/2019 11:59

wouldnt be my choice but at least he bought it and sent it to you many on here would be happy if their other half remembered to do that!
