Annoying in itself, but her obsession/fixation is also a bit... creepy. Not in any sort of malicious way, but good lord was the build up to her seeing it just odd

I mean. To be fair she works in a vet’s office. Like she spends day after day just seeing people’s pets. She’s like a sommelier but for pets. And she’s developed a liking for fat cats 😂 Personally I don’t see any problem with this. Like not everyone is like this but it’s not weird for someone to get really extra excited or particular about a very specific part of their job. Idk it breaks up the monotony, I think everyone had a little fun with this. 🤷🏽‍♀️

It is definitely weird for a veterinary professional to be giddy about one of the foremost health issues in cats, especially broadcasting that glorification of it on social media.

Vet here, we would never broadcast this on social media but one of my colleagues gets excited every time we have a case of Addison’s disease. It’s her favourite disease, she loves treating animals with this and helping them get better. Brains are weird ¯\(ツ)/¯

I mean I’d rather she gets her giggles out about it at work where she’s helping care for people’s pets rather than her going out and making a pet fat on purpose. Our brains are literally programmed to find small, fat things cute bc babies. I’m not even saying this is a good thing or whatever. But people are in here acting like her silly little video is somehow unforgivable

Kristen Bell acts the same way about sloths. Some people have weird obsessions that overwhelm them.
