How to write a funny cat review

Turn a box, a window, or a keyboard into a tiny cat-sized complaint.

Start with an ordinary object

Choose something your imaginary cat can have an opinion about: a box, a chair, or a patch of sunshine. A small subject makes the joke easy to picture.

Give the cat a very serious job

Try a chair inspector or a head of window security. A formal voice describing a tiny problem creates a useful contrast: “Heating excellent. Sunlight relocation policy unacceptable.”

Let the rating tell another story

A human might dislike a battered box. Your cat can give it five stars because it fits. Keep the judgment inside the character’s world, then stop while the joke is still small.

Your turn

Review a cardboard box as though it were a luxury apartment.
