#anyways something i like about the dr. katz world is how apparently a giant cat being a member of human society isn't anything abnormal

[simptasia]

when i was a kid i used to write stories about dr. katz, a 6 foot tall cat man who was a paediatrician. but he’d always eat all his patients. he ate children. i never explained how he kept his job, considering all the dead children. anyways, i’d always draw him wearing an old fashioned nurse uniforms, like in cartoons. that wasn’t to imply crossdressing was some creepy lunatic thing, i just found it more fun to draw a nurse’s uniform than some regular doctor uniform

#it wasn't very deep. dr. katz just lures kids into his exam room and eats them #while the parents wait obliviously #they sent me to principal and he told me not to draw/write dr. katz anymore because it was too disturbing apparently #this annoyed me #so for next creative writing class i wrote a story #about a magical talking watermelon who is happy all the time. and he uses his magic to make other people happy all the time #and by ''makes'' i don't mean he provides things that make people happy. he MADE people happy. all the time. by force #(pretty biting satire for a 9 year old eh?) #and the principal found this delightful (lacking any self awareness) and told me to keep up the good work #the next week i went back to dr. katz stories. i just really liked drawing that upright cat wearing a nurse uniform okay! #so to me. a magical talking watermelon is my symbol for stifled creativity #i eventually got bored of repeatedly writing/drawing a cat doctor graphically murdering children #but point is it was up to ME when i stopped doing that #anyways something i like about the dr. katz world is how apparently a giant cat being a member of human society isn't anything abnormal #and as i said repeatedly to my teachers and friends: no he isn't pretending to be a doctor. he went to medical school. he is a doctor #he just chooses to... eat his patients. he gets paid for it too #but like if he wanted to he would actually be a really good doctor
