Poor Betty Zing has been suffering a false pregnancy this week.

Yes, that’s a real thing. Her mammaries are swollen, and she’s whining and nesting in various corners of the house.

Suddenly, many of her toys have turned from being “prey” (that she gnaws and tosses about) to being “babies” (that she licks and protects), such as with her rubber chicken (above). (See also Scott’s version of the matter.)
