As if this freak flag couldn’t get any higher. In celebration of today’s holiday, I thought it a fine time to pay homage to cat-boy hero, Joey Rooney of Disney’s Liv and Maddie. Every week, Joey gives cats their proper due by showcasing an extensive t-shirt collection dedicated to our feline friends. Some highlights include Cat Riding a Hotdog, Cat Riding Dinosaur, Laser Cat, Banana Cat, Space Cat, and Space Cat 2: The Legend Continues. Readers, don’t adjust your screen, that IS a cat pattern shirt (top, left) and it is awesome. He wears his love for cats on his sleeves, undergarments and socks too.
At school, Joey has been begrudgingly dubbed Cat Shirt Guy. While he’s attempted to shed his name by bidding farewell to the collection, it just won’t take. Here’s the thing, Cat Shirt Guy doesn’t need to change himself to fit the status quo. Cat Shirt Guy doesn’t need to listen to the haters. And Cat Shirt Guy certainly doesn’t need a national holiday to give proper respect to our majestic, feline companions. Accept yourself for the Hissfit you are, Joey Rooney, you’re an inspiration to us all!
