“We need to talk” usually means a painful discussion. B&W cat uses that as impetus to invent a then-new cat behavior: running for no obvious reason.
Cats like to thunder from one end of the house to the other and back again, and stop and look startled and wide-eyed and hunted, and then hare off again. Often it only requires one cat, though, rather than two chasing each other back and forth. Maybe solo cats are haunted by the sudden memory of some inappropriate saying or action in their past that they are now running to distract themselves from.
Mark Parisi does pretty good jokes about cat behavior. One of them (5-5-17) was a two-panel cartoon called “Knock Knock Jokes for Cats.” The top panel showing two cats sitting together in front of the couch. One cat says to the other, “Knock knock.” The second panel shows both cats hiding under the couch.
I added Off the Mark to my comics because it often had good cat jokes. I see this one is from a while ago which is why I didn’t remember it.
Whereas my dog suddenly runs to a different room every time he farts, because it always terrifies him (and he’s 8, not a puppy).
The white longhair is a female, the black-and-white-domestic-shorthair is a male, and she has just said something that strikes terror in the heart of males everywhere.
@ The Bad Seed: Considering the general reputation of dog farts, he probably has reason to fear it.
Sort of synchronicity with Tuesday’s Breaking Cat News.

In synchronicity, THIS is how dogs handle it . . .
