This picture of a cat named Mingus proves that felines always do what they want
“Mingus the dingus,” read one comment on the subreddit.
Many on the Internet know cats as being masters of their destiny. Now, here is a picture that exemplifies that notion and proves that only a feline can decide its fate.
Posted on Reddit on July 20, the image has been shared with a caption reading, “My dad bought a cactus to discourage Mingus from getting on the counter. Here’s Mingus with the cactus. (Photo by my dad)”.
The photograph shows a white-and-tangerine furred feline sitting atop a wooden ledge by a window. The kitty is resting its face on the flower that grows on top of the tiny cactus. We aren’t cat whisperers, but can infer that Mingus’ expression screams, ‘I do what I want’.

Here is what Redditors had to say about Mingus. One person said, “Mingus the dingus”. To which the original poster responded, “I (lovingly) call him this often”. Another individual wrote, “He’s just the cutest little dingus ever”.
“He looks so smug,” read one comment on the subreddit. A Reddit user even wrote a poem for Mingus the dingus. “Cat haiku: ‘Kitty on counter. Hoomans must like kitty here. Kitty with brushy’”. Now if that isn’t art, we don’t know what is.
“Mingus: This pillow is not very comfy Human! I demand a box with pillows and grass!” read one comment guessing the cat’s perspective over the whole ordeal.
