Cat Desperate for Internet Fame and Desire for a Picture of Himself to go Viral Declares Hunger Strike Until it Happens!"},"content":{"rendered":"

\"KeyboardKizmet\"<\/a>With the onset of rising household name cat stardom and popularity as a result of the Internet, Kizmet the Kitten is no longer satisfied with the paltry\u00a0couple dozen\u00a0likes or so each of his pictures generates on facebook and attempts to become the next Keyboard<\/a>, Grumpy<\/a>, or Nyan<\/a> Cat by going on a hunger strike until this picture of him looking adorable next to a computer keyboard goes viral.<\/p>\n

In what is probably the most shocking development the Zee\/Zoey household has seen since the time aloof Rolz actually let his human\u2019s pet him and pick him up without squirming (this may\u00a0actually be\u00a0pure speculation and wishful thinking and not confirmed fact), Kizmet has declared he will remain reclined out next to his human\u2019s computer keyboard in an adorable pose for as long as it takes without food while waiting \u00a0for his picture to go viral, or until it is time for dinner. Whichever comes first.<\/p>\n

Kizmet is adamant and dedicated to his cause. As he puts it, \u201cI\u2019m just as cute as those other famous cats are and what\u2019s the big deal with playing a keyboard or looking grumpy?\u201d He continues, \u201cI catch paper balls all the time and bring them back to my humans, plus I have a very endearing habit where I expose my belly, which is off the charts adorable. How much more does a cat have to do to prove they deserve to go viral?\u201d “Not to mention, what’s up with Nyan Cat?” “He’s a flying cartoon cat with a body made out of a cherry Pop-Tart. Really? My body girth looks like an\u00a0over sized\u00a0loaf of rye bread, yet that doesn’t seem to catch anyone’s attention.”<\/p>\n

As imagined, Kizmet\u2019s boldness and desperate cry for attention has caused quite a stir with his other feline housemates who have allowed me to question them as to what they think of this developing situation:<\/p>\n

\"Zee-and-Zoey---Love-Story-Current-Today\"<\/a>

Zee and Zoey remain respectfully unaware of the unfolding developments with Kizmet and quite frankly, even if they were aware, would still not care…<\/p><\/div>

\"three-together\"<\/a>

This appears to be Mia, Peanut, and Rolz but honestly I can’t tell them apart and feel it’s best I just let them nap. No point in waking them up for something so unsettling as a campaign by Kizmet to go viral because again, like Zee and Zoey, quite frankly they won’t care…<\/p><\/div>

\"Jazz1\"<\/a>

Jazz is one of those kitties from the older generation and he doesn’t even know what the Internet is… No reason to wake him to discuss something about cats being grumpy. He lives with seven other cats and has seen all of them grumpy at one point or another…<\/p><\/div>

\"Harley-sleep\"<\/a>

Harley says, “Who’s Kizmet?” “When did we get another cat?”<\/p><\/div>
\nWell, there you have it. You saw it for yourself just how much Kizmet\u2019s plea for fame has affected the other cats. And as this ordeal has dragged on for what seems like an hour, but has actually only been eight minutes, Kizmet ends with this compelling question, \u201cIs it time for dinner yet? I\u2019m starting to get hungry and can\u2019t lie here looking cute all day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Stay strong buddy, stay strong…<\/p>\n
