My Cat’s Tongue Is a Tiny Pink Outlaw

You know that moment when you try for weeks to catch your pet doing something adorable, but every time you reach for your phone, they suddenly become the most boring creature alive? That was me, on a personal quest to capture my cat’s legendary blep. For the uninitiated, a blep is when a cat forgets to put their tongue away and just… leaves it out. Like a tiny pink flag of defiance. Today, after what felt like a hundred failed attempts and more blurry photos than I care to admit, I finally got it. The elusive blep, in all its glory. I swear he knew I was watching, too—he looked me dead in the eye, tongue out, as if to say, “You want this? Work for it.” Anyway, my camera roll is now 90% cat tongue. No regrets. Pet parents, I know you get it. #CatLife #PetParent #Blep #Pets
