From the reading explanation of the kanji 猫:
“Wait a minute… This cat is pretty odd looking. You take a closer look, seeing it is missing its neck (ねこ). You go to pet it, but it’s super sensitive about that area of its head, which is basically a face connected to a body…
HINTS
Try not to imagine this too hard. It is disturbing.”
He’s not that disturbing, y’know?
