Here lies Percival C. Singer’s tabby cat Who tragically forgot where he was at He was crossing a street When, perchance, he did meet A truck that crushed him inalterably flat. Written August 18, 2022

I have seen this and it is disturbing.

I understand. I thought quite a long while before showing it here. See my experience with Terry below.

It sounds like a fat cat's flat cat to me; hilarious, Milton

Well, I'm sure cat lovers (and I am one) will not like it, generally speaking, but, I found it mildly amusing. Where it came from? I once had to scrape a cat off the pavement. It was still alive, and I was able to save it, although it was badly injured.
