A Melbourne private school is supporting a student’s choice to identify as a cat, a source close the family has reportedly disclosed.

A private school in Melbourne is reportedly supporting a year eight, non-verbal student in identifying as a cat.

The Herald Sun reports the “phenomenally bright” child has been allowed to assume the identity, with the behaviour linked to the ‘furries’ subculture that has been adopted by some teen circles.

“No one seems to have a protocol for students identifying as animals, but the approach has been that if it doesn’t disrupt the school, everyone is being supportive,” said a source close the family.

WTAF: She is non verbal, so how do they know she identifies as a cat. Wait until ringworm is found.

I'd like to identify as a dog so I could lick my balls, these fucking yoga classes better pay off!!!

My wife has always called hers a Pussy.

How fucked are parents for indulging this stupid shit. If my daughter ever said some dumb shit like this, I'd say okay cool, well go live in the alley then. I hope you find some rats to eat.

Massive LOL at the kid being "phenomenonally bright". Clearly she's very "special"..

Tbh, teenagers, especially girls, get up to all sorts of crazy shit, and much worse than thinking they're a cat.

Article says she is non verbal so there could be all sorts of psychological reasons why. Not necessarily poor parenting.

Better not be a CATastrophe.

My car was stolen last night, probably by a teenager. Would prefer my neighbourhood kids identifying as cats than eshay car thieves.

 

[Heckler]

What breed of Pussy-cat is it??

[Dogmonster]

And visitors of the parents asked, can your pussy cat stop rubbing my legs im covered in hair, a quick clap sends pussy running off tail up displaying its rusty 3rd eye.

 

[SPEARTAKVIDREFS]

Quoted as non verbal, sounds like she has a disability to me.

It will be a spoof that someone put out, to see whether the media ever checks the authenticity of stuff put on social media.
Media gets sucked in by this stuff all the time.
