Recently, Reddit user ‘Frameset’ had an amusing encounter while passing by a grocery store in Liverpool, England. He noticed a black-and-white cat nestled in a dirt patch near the side of the building, looking as though she had nowhere else to go. At first glance, she seemed like a stray who was hungry and in need of a little kindness. But things were not quite what they appeared—and a curious note beside her revealed the full story.
When Frameset approached for a closer look, he saw that the cat wasn’t just lying on the ground. She had arranged herself on a makeshift bed of cardboard. One of the cardboard pieces contained a handwritten message, which shed some light on the cat’s true situation.
The note read: “Please do not feed the black and white cat. My name is Lili and I have a home on Kenyon [the next street over]. I am an actress! I like attention! I like food! It is very kind of you, but please stop feeding me, because I will spend less time at home. Thank you.”
“She’s very friendly,” one user commented. “But I think half the problem is she sits in places that make it look like she needs help.”
Just no snacks, please—Lili’s already well-fed and knows exactly how to play her part.
Others, amused by the situation, contributed comments as well. One said, “If that cat could read, she’d be very upset.”
These poor kitties were rescued from an animal cruelty case where they were starved, locked in cages with inches of feces, and received no water or food. Now, these cats need your help!
