Meh? The writing seemed a little childish for this to have received the acclaim and word of mouth that it did. I just don't get it, and I don't really see why cats were even important, let alone so important that they be featured in the title.

Wow. Clever, dark, funny, interesting and very realistic.

A fantastic short story about Margot, a college sophomore, and Robert, a man in his 30s, takes place via witty, bantering texts, but on their single ill fated date, each is revealed to have entirely misunderstood the other.

This is a very thought provoking story which is well worth reading especially if you like to mull a story over afterwards!

I totally get why this story created a lot of discussion and went viral.

⭐⭐⭐⭐/5
