We adopted our Missy when she was an adult cat. And she had a temper. If someone opened the fridge and didn’t feed her, she would naturally faint. Right with a bang, on her back and her front legs crossed over her chest.

So the husband goes to the fridge, the cat again falls on the floor. And then my husband tells her that fat kitties can’t pretend to faint from hunger convincingly. It’s time to take on a new character. Apparently, she agreed.
