In recent times, the Singaporean government has echoed a plea for all to join in the fight against the rampant COVID-19, by going for vaccination wherever necessary.
And it seems that everyone has taken heed in true fashion, even the cats.
On 23 March 2021, a community cat turned up at Hougang Community Club to do its part for Singapore.
It also (somehow) acquired a queue number, having been ‘allocated’ the 16th position in the vaccination booking section.
But it appears that humans, being the earth-destroying entities that they are, were not having any of it.
No, they said. It’s not a human, but a cat.
Do not vaccinate it, but pet it.
And so, the poor cat was, despite its best patriotic attempts, given a multitude of ‘condescending’ pats instead of the injection it had signed up for.
With that, the cat steadily turned away, flames of hatred and anger evident in its eyes.
Community Cat Shows Up to Hougang CC During Vaccination Time Once Again; Receives Pats Instead of a Jab
Five days later, the community cat turned up once again, evidently eager for revenge.
Unfortunately, it appears that humans are way too populated for it to have a plausible chance.
According to Mothership, the cat has shown up once again at Hougang Community Club on 28 March, for what would have been its second dose (disregarding the mandatory time needed in between doses).
Like any law-abiding citizen, the feline was careful not to cut any queues, and laid within its chair politely, eager to comply with the mandatory safe-distancing rules.
Stretching and relaxing, it even took a nap while waiting.
But it was all for naught.
Once again, the cat was unable to receive the injection it so desired.
But on the bright side, it appears to have escaped any ‘condescending’ pats this time around.
Community Cat
According to Mothership, the cat is said to be a resident at Hougang and is around eight to ten years old.
Its actions have also attracted the adoration of Netizens, with some gushing over its adorability.
“So adorable!” one commented on a Facebook post.
“So nice, no one complain or be nasty to him,” another said. “He waited until fall asleep, so cute.”
One also testified to the feline’s sweetness.
“Ya…I saw him ytd at Hougang cc. Very sweet cat.”
While others wondered whether it had been hired as a safe-distancing ambassador.
“Looks like the same cat that made it to Mothership news,” a Netizen said. “Think he/she took both doses so now is like doing safe distancing job.”
“Ah Meow is the volunteer Vaccination Supurrvisor…” another quipped. “He watches over all those who have obtain the jab to look out for pawssible side effects.”
With that said, we await the third part of the trilogy.
Only time will tell whether the feline will eventually succeed in its endeavour.
