Joy (Dublin, Ireland) had a meltdown. The vet said "slightly chonky." Joy heard "utterly, irrevocably, CHONKY." Post-vet, her human offered a big book as a peace offering, knowing it would please her. She sat on it, but with her back turned and ears in full aeroplane mode. Apparently, the road to feline recovery from such an insulting episode is a long one.
