They see humans as inexplicably large, slightly thick cats

@Jo we ended up going with free to view satellite because digital terrestrial just doesn't work around here

My parent's generation: "Why are all our kids so weird?"

One of the TV shows you put on for us involved an anthropomorphic badger with a weird thing for mashed potato, what did you expect?
