DIVORCED CATS PHOTOGRAPHED AT SAME BIRTHDAY TABLE; FAMILY CALLS IT “PROGRESS”

Bruno and Lady Sybil were photographed at the same family birthday table on Sunday, five years after their divorce and approximately five minutes after both asked who approved the seating chart.

The former couple sat side by side for their daughter Clementine’s celebration, separated only by a large ceremonial bowl of kibble and the accumulated wisdom of three adult kittens who had clearly rehearsed the phrase ‘this is nice.’

Witnesses described the mood as warm, civil, and heavily managed. Bruno complimented the flowers. Sybil thanked him without mentioning that he used to be allergic to them when she bought them.

A family representative called the photograph ‘a beautiful sign of progress.’ The second photograph, in which Sybil appears to be reading a text while Bruno explains something with his entire body, was not distributed.

The pair shared the kibble, posed for pictures, and refrained from litigating ownership of the sunny chair. Sources say this exceeded expectations.

Both departed through separate doors at the same time, which the family also described as progress because last year one of them used the window.
