Overview
This meme is a screenshot of a post from the X (formerly Twitter) platform. The poster, user @TheDreamGhoul, writes a joking caption saying that every time they call their white cat by her name, the cat stares at them with an expression as if they just told the cat her husband died at sea. Four separate photos of the same all-white domestic cat are included below the text, all showing the cat with a somber, slightly sad, disappointed resting expression looking directly at the camera, matching the over-the-top dramatic description in the caption. The humor comes from anthropomorphizing the cat's neutral, serious resting face as an absurdly disproportionate, dramatic upset reaction to a minor, everyday interaction like hearing its name called.
