Are You Mad at Me Cat

MARX TO ENGELS IN MANCHESTER [London,] 6 December 1868 DEAR FRED, Are you mad at me? Your K. M.

A wide-eyed orange cat fills the frame in a dim, abandoned-looking room, with a historical letter overlaid across the bottom. The letter is humorously signed by Karl Marx to Friedrich Engels and asks, “Are you mad at me?”, turning an ordinary anxious question into an absurd historical-cat reaction meme. It can be sent when someone worries that another person is upset with them.
