In a hard-hitting, gato a gato interview, Simon’s Cat interviews the internet sensation Henri, the Dolorous Existential Moggie. It’s at Simon’s site, and the entire interview is below:
Simon’s Cat Asks…
SC: So Henri, what is your favourite sleeping place?
HLCN (Henri, le Chat Noir): I don’t limit myself to any particular place for any of the 15 hours a day I sleep. I just lie down wherever the mood strikes me.
SC: Okay. Um, what is your favourite toy?
HLCN: Toys are diversions that humans use to keep us distracted from real thought. More cats might join me in pondering the deeper mysteries of the world if they were not distracted by jingling plastic balls.
SC: Of course. Er, what is your most annoying habit?
HLCN: I assume you mean in others? L’imbecile blanc tends to bat me in the ears while he is sleeping. It is very annoying.
SC: So, what is your most lovable trait?
HLCN: I prefer to be respected more than to be loved. That said, probably my chest fur.
SC: What would you say your most memorable moment was?
HLCN: My memories are like coins in the devil’s purse. When you open it you find only dead leaves.
