Pete's Expert Summary
So, the human has acquired another one of these little plastic effigies from the Funko corporation. This one is apparently called "Raspberry Torte Tart," a ridiculously sweet name for an object with no discernible flavor. It is a small, hard, vinyl statue with an oversized head and painted-on eyes that will never blink, no matter how long I stare at it. Its purpose, as far as I can deduce, is to sit perfectly still on a shelf, gathering dust and occupying a space that could be much better utilized for, say, me. It has no feathers, no strings, and makes no crinkling sound. While its diminutive size might make it a tempting target for a swift gravity experiment, its value seems entirely sentimental to the biped, making it a high-risk, low-reward proposition. Ultimately, it’s an inanimate ornament, a complete waste of my predatory talents.

A Tale from Pete the Cat
The box it came in was far more interesting, but the human whisked it away before I could perform a proper structural integrity test. In its place, she set this... thing... on her desk. It was a tiny totem with a vacant stare and a hat that looked like a poorly conceived dessert. She called it "Raspberry" and positioned it right next to her keyboard, a prime piece of real estate I often claimed for supervising her "work." An intruder. A silent, plastic usurper in my kingdom. My first move was reconnaissance. I leaped onto the desk with practiced silence, my paws making no sound on the wood surface. I circled the figure slowly, my tail a gray banner of inquiry. It smelled of vinyl and faint paint, a sterile, manufactured scent that offended my refined senses. I lowered my head, my nose nearly touching its own. Its enormous, lifeless eyes stared back, offering no challenge, no fear, no recognition of my authority. This was not prey; this was an insult. It didn't even have the decency to wobble when I nudged it with my nose. For a moment, I considered the classic maneuver: a single, elegant swipe of the paw, sending it careening into the abyss behind the desk, lost forever among the dust bunnies and forgotten cables. But the human was watching, and such a blatant act would only result in a scolding and, worse, my temporary banishment from the office. A more subtle approach was required. A war of attrition. I laid down beside it, deliberately, placing my body between it and the human. Then, with a flick of my tail, I gently draped the soft, fluffy end right over its head, completely obscuring it from view. The human laughed. "Pete, you're jealous of a toy," she said, scratching me behind the ears. The figure remained hidden beneath my fur, defeated and irrelevant. I had not destroyed it, but I had absorbed it. I had rendered it a mere lump under my magnificent coat, a footnote in my narrative of comfort and dominance. It was not a toy, and it would never be a threat. It was simply a prop, a useful tool for reminding the human where her true allegiances—and her petting obligations—should lie. I closed my eyes and began to purr. Let the little plastic fool serve its new purpose as my pillow.
