Mention to family that cat attempted to eat thyroid meds this morning, comment that human-sized dose of thyroid meds is probably not good for cats. Comment that human-sized dose of any meds probably not good for cats.

Brother puts forth the idea of food. 

Wonder if a cat even contains 2000 calories. 

Google many things including weight of chicken. Deduce that cat probably contains roughly as much food as large meat-breed chicken if not counting bones and organs. Deduce that small local cat therefore probably contains 1400 calories or so. 

Brother notes that “how many calories are in a cat” and variations thereof only brings up search results for how many calories a cat should eat.

Point out that people who are eating cats are probably not in a mood to count calories. Also note that cats are not frequently eaten, likely due to the difficulty of catching and/or farming them. Proceed to defend this notion to snickering family, mostly pointing out that cats fight and are difficult to confine and handle. 

Mom is writing a Facebook post about this whole conversation.
