\*\* My Cat just ate some waxed paper. Quick answers needed.  
Is there a name for this fallacy?\*\*

It’s the Feline Foreign Body Fallacy. “If I eat something bad, they’ll fuss over me and I’ll get extra treats!”\*

\*in Labrador retrievers, it’s “Eat what you find. It’s filling, and at worst you’ll probably barf, and you can eat that too.”
