we had this book! it's about self perception. i don't think it was literally titled this, but i vividly remember the illustrations and it starts with that the other cats don't like the smelly cats stench, and then they don't like its games, but then it finds some animals that appreciate its stench and doing handstands with it, so they go home to their community where the smelly cat meets its birth mother, a skunk. on the last page the smelly cat is shown with the skunk, and they're both skunks

So like the ugly duckling, but smell instead of appearance?

[–] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 15 points 1 day ago

pretty much yeah. only it's not that the cat grows upeand has to deal with how gorgeous it is, it's that the cat, who was always a skunk and didn't realize, just needed to keep looking for their people. there's a line in one piece

Sooooooo the kitten transitioned? Sounds pretty woke.

[–] spankmonkey@lemmy.world 18 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No, the kitten was born a skunk and just had to discover who they were!
