The Cat as Metaphor
My cat, Gigi, has improved in
appearance and sociability since I’ve begun to dole out her victuals in small
quantities. She’s shed a pound and in spite of ripe middle age, has become more
agile and personable like a kitten.
(Apparently, filling her bowl once
daily caused her to overeat and become lazy and fat.)
Let’s consider the metaphor: A
little struggle in life can be a blessing. A cat or a person may overindulge
and develop a feeling of entitlement when receiving everything offered to them
(too easily or on a silver platter).
