If you have a cat as a pet, just know that Charles Barkley believes you’re living a lie.
Unimpressed by what he clearly felt was a “boring” Game 4 between the Minnesota Timberwolves and Denver Nuggets, former NBA great and current TNT analyst Charles Barkley decided to switch to the topic of cats, and why they’re “not a real pet.”
“A cat is not a real pet,” Barkley said. “Stop it.”
When pressed as to why cats are not a real pet, Barkley’s response was both obvious and profound.
“Because it’s not a dog,” Barkley responded. “I don’t dislike cats. I just don’t think they’re real pets. A dog is a real pet. Just stop it.”
Co-host Kenny Smith would not let Barkley off the hook, however. Smith challenged Barkley to put cats into a category, if they’re not pets.
“Just something,” Barkley responded. “Like, old women have ‘em.”
The Timberwolves avoided the sweep and won the game. As for cats, they’ve been set back about 100 years.
