WASHINGTON—New data shows no notable increase in political engagement among housecats for 2023, a Burwell Institute study has concluded.
A key moment in the study came during a focus group, when members were shown footage of recent social tumult from around the world. Of the nine participants, six responded by curling into a ball to sleep, while two others rubbed their cheeks against the furniture. One participant knocked a glass of water onto its side. “Any feedback is good feedback,” said research lead Dr. Anne Strauss diplomatically. “The data is on par with what our regression models predicted.”
When asked what the point is in always knocking over everyone’s goddamn water the second they leave the room, participants had no comment.
