You know what the main problem with politics is? There are no cats involved, and that is a problem that was picked up on by one small town who decided that their mayoral race had become a disgrace and pivoted to bringing in feline candidates to fill the void.

The result is a campaign trail that is far more feisty, far more funny, filled with cute and charismatic cattos and best of all some of the best pawlitical pawlicies that have ever been put forward cat or not. So step right up and look into our feline overlord future where things generally look a lot brighter than they do now, even if it means handing the societal controls over to cats… They might not care all too much about foreign pawlicy but you know what they say you catch a mouse in your neighborhood not in another country. So think local and start advocating for a feline run election cycle in your town.

  • Holy moly, it is mind-blowing to see how seriously some of the people of Somerville are taking this obviously made up election. We would not at all be surprised to hear that one of the challengers for the mayoral race had their car ties punctured when they were about to be on their way to the vet for their annual check up.

  • Honestly, these are some pretty sound policies, and we would be more than happy to get behind Mr. Fang’s mayoral race. Though it would be interesting to see what the other candidates are offering as well. Though, we heard that straying from one’s allegiance to Mr. Fang does not end well for most…
