An orange tabby cat named Suki became the first honorary feline graduate of The University of Texas at Austin. According to FOX 7, UT student Francesca Bourdier spent most of her college career at home like any other college student, on Zoom with her cat by her side.
Bourduer said Suki attended every class she had online so she knew she had to include the one-and-a-half-year-old cat when graduation came around.
Through a quick search online, Bourdier was even able to buy Suki her own cap and gown.
Imagine applying for a job and having a cat get the job instead of you
‘graduates’ is how they wrote it. I hope they honoured a bunch of students for their actual accomplishments.
Wait until his student loans come due
Plot twist: the cat did most of the actual work.
It was all in ventinary science and mouse psychology
Wait, can you graduate from uni just by turning up? No exams?
Cats have pretty privilege in levels humanity can’t reach.
Remember the lawyer who said he wasn’t a cat?
I’m unable to get the jokes about orange cats and low braincell count. My orange cat is a genius.
I’ve met both, but they often tend to towards the idiot side of the spectrum.
Have a Russian blue who probably has a novel solution to fermats last theorem though.
I don’t get that either - is it a blond thing?
That erudite-looking sonofabitch!
Suki will be the least annoying UT Austin grad ever
Aw what an adorable way to get easy publicity.
Was this an expedited degree? The cat is only a year and a half old. I think this might be fraud.
It seems the owner is selling fashion on Instagram and training to be a Pilates teacher. Maybe the degree wasn’t that expansive.
A cat teaching Pilates? I thought it was an MBA or something, but this no longer sounds believable.
How did that cat even get through admissions?! I smell a bribery scandal.
It only attended lectures, but did no tests or quizzes? Even if it negotiated pass/fail grades on attendance and not exams, the degree should probably have stipulations requiring some number of credits be from letter grades.
At best, this cat was auditing classes. I do not believe it earned this degree and I would not hire it in the field based on it.
I find these statements discriminatory and have decided it’s best we make sure they vote this cat to be Governor of Texas.
Cat’s overqualified for that position.
Maybe an Associate degree?
Unreal Tournament Austin?
“University” of “Texas” (derogatory)
Doctor of Divinity degree
Imagine being 40 and still paying off your dead cats student loans
Grim, but relatable.
I support this
Whoops, wrong spot for reply.
Gets college degree, remains an unemployed leech.
Unemployed by choice I guess
oh that’s where all the braincells went
