AIBU to think my cat could have written a nicer message in my Mother's Day card?

AIBU to think my cat is really ungrateful? I opened my Mother's Day card and whilst it had a nice cat picture on the front, inside my cat had written "Happy Fucking Mothers Day you dickhead I'll bring in a dead mouse for you even though every day should be my fucking day now that's it fuck off".

After everything I have done for her, I think this quite a poor effort really and her punctuation is shit . She did sellotape a photo of herself and made the effort to draw a speech bubble to make it look as though the message was coming out of her mouth, but AIBU to think she could have made a bit more of an effort or at least write a nicer message?

PS Any DCs who helped her hold the pen in her paw are thankfully adults so at least she didn't expose a young child to her swearing.

PPS Cat isn't Thug Cat Wink although I suspect he is her role model.

No card or present.

Some adorable cats here! And meaningful gifts of sick appears to be a common theme...

@ninja I hope your post doesn't mean your human DD called you a fucking selfish bitch? If so, I'd fucking rehome her. Seriously unacceptable on any day of the year, not just Mothers Day.

@neilyoungismyhero I'm so sorry. Would you like to share a favourite photo of him (apologies if that would actually make you feel worse). Flowers

@LostCats I don't know if I'm allowed to link so I'll do it in a separate post in case it gets deleted (if it does, if you type in "Valentine's Day card cat Royal Mail" into Etsy it should come up. Fab aren't they?

I feel very guilty now about taking the piss out of my ungrateful cat as the neighbourhood Evil Black Cat tried to fight her this morning and really upset her. My Ungrateful cat is usually hard as nails and actually has form for slapping dogs in the face - most recently and somewhat awkwardly, DS's girlfriend's dog Blush So for her to be scared means EBC was even more evil than usual. (The other day DH heard yowling, legged it out of the back door and in his haste to protect our cats, went flying and cut his hand quite badly. When he went to work later on he had to wear one of my special hair dyeing white latex gloves on his hand as it kept bleeding through the plaster. He was moaning about looking like a twat/Michael Jackson impersonator until I pointed out he could have just worn two gloves and it would have looked more normal Grin

She has been comforted with lots of "being held like a baby and rubbed all over with a big towel" (her favourite activity atmConfused) and I even made a special trip to the shop for lik e lix and stick things for a treat <sucker that I am>

This has been a nice thread for me, thank you all. It was my second Mothers Day without my mum and actually felt harder than the first. In fact I "inherited" this cat from her and spent yesterday evening worried DCat was also missing my mum as much as me and the DC were missing her. My mum would have loved the card Smile
