My relative visits my house and sees my (fluffy and definitely not fat) cat.
Relative: He’s too heavy—he needs to lose a few pounds. You need to put him on X/Y diet.
Me: Thank you for petsplaining. I have taken Theodore to the vet and I can assure you he is just fluff.
I finally decide to get a dog after much planning.
Friend: You shouldn't get your dog now.
Me: Why not?
Friend: Well, dogs require a lot of time.
Me: Yes, do you know how much?
Friend: No, but it's a lot.
Me: Well I do know because I have spent a lot of time researching. Thank you for petsplaining and assuming that I will not be a responsible pet owner but I assure you I have more knowledge and determination than you think.
