Is That Puss in Boots from Shrek? No, It’s Marty the Cat!

If your cat looked this sad, this forlorn, you’d pretty much give him whatever he wanted, right? Like, we kinda don’t care if he wanted to brandish a sword while wearing a hat adorned with an outlandish feather. If he gave us this look, we’d so let him. Hey, if it worked for Puss in Boots from Shrek, it can certainly work for Marty the cat!

When you think about it, that’s probably how Puss in Boots came to be the swashbuckler that he is in the first place, right? Seriously, he probably pulled his famously sad face on an unsuspecting pet parent and before they knew it they’d purchased him a dashing pair of boots. So, what does Marty want that prompted the most heart crushingly forlorn look of all time?

His pet parent…had her computer in her lap…instead of him! Oh, the humanity! She says, “Marty is very possessive of me. At the time of the photo, I was sitting on the couch with my computer on my lap, which is strictly his spot. I think the combination of my lap being occupied and my typing made him a little upset.”

A little?!? He looks bereft! Doesn’t she know that a cat’s place is in a lap? Can’t she see how she’s breaking his heart?? Actually, she can’t really be blamed too much. You see, Marty’s face kinda always looks like that even when he is getting cuddles. That being the case, we’d probably be in big trouble if we were Marty’s guardians. Knowing that he has a naturally forlorn look is one thing. Witnessing the sad eyes all the time would pretty much make him in charge around our house. It’s okay Marty, you can lay anywhere you want! Just please, stop looking at us like that!

You’re killing us.

In the name of all that’s holy, give him what he wants!

It’s like…they’re just…they even have the same, worried little markings between their ears.
