Winston Reminds the Gang They're Missing Out Not Maximizing Their Relationships with Ferguson
The Ferguson Moment: After being teased by his roommates for having a cat, Winston reminds them they all, in fact, live with a cat, but he is the only one who really enjoys it.
Why It's Perfect: Look, if you are not spending personal leisure time with a cat, you just don't get it. If you don't take the time to get to know the cat in your house, then it's your loss. Because, oh, the stories they could tell. It's kind of like having a roommate who's always high - you hate it because of the smell and the mess, but if you were high, would you really care?
The Ferguson Moment: While Winston is brushing Ferguson, Jess admits to him that she's in love with her boyfriend's parents, but doesn't like her boyfriend. Angry and disappointed, Winston tells Ferguson to clear his schedule, because he "needs to talk to [Ferguson's] sister." He also asks Ferguson whether he's been hanging around the wharf, because he's got a big knot in his fur.
Why It's Perfect: Cats are part of your family, just like everyone living in the house, and should be addressed as such! They can be children, siblings, even grandchildren. No matter what, cats deserve a spot in the family tree.

Winston Brushes Ferguson, and They Have Spirited Banter
The Ferguson Moment: While brushing knots out of Ferguson's hair, Winston tells him they're in a "hairy" situation. And he can't get over how funny it is.
Why It's Perfect: You spend so much time with your cat every day, but the jokes just don't get old. And there are so many! Plus, your cat totally thinks they are funny, fur real. It's a purr-fect situation. Are you kitten me? Sorry, that was clawful. Let's try to remain pawsitive about the situation.
The Ferguson Moment: A mysterious box arrives at the loft, and Winston insists it isn't his, because it's too big to be a pair of pants and too small to be a cat hotel, and there's nothing else he would order.
Why It's Perfect: You dream of having the space and money to give your cat everything she deserves. A cat mansion! A cat convertible (catmobile?)! Your cat should have it all. And Winston realizes the dream, living in a spacious loft on his LAPD salary.
The Ferguson Moment: Winston sings Ferguson a beautiful song about the leftover pasta they're about to share. "Hey, you want to split that pasta from last night, hmm? Winston and Ferguson 'bout to split some pasta. Yeah, man, you know I got wuv for you. Got nothing but love for you."
Why It's Perfect: As a cat lover, you need to believe your cat understands, or at least enjoys, the songs you sing to her. Come, cats just get it. They understand. Because there are so, so many songs to be sung, and they are sung so, so often. Cats are the perfect audience. You feel better singing to them than you would in front a packed house at Carnegie Hall.
The Ferguson Moment: Winston dramatically reveals to the gang that he takes weekly selfies with Ferguson, and proceeds to scroll through them while laughing to himself. The conversation includes Winnie the Bish loudly proclaiming "If I were off my rocker, would I take a weekly selfie with my cat?"
Why It's Perfect: Look through the photos on any cat lover's phone. Seriously, do it. At least half of them will be of a cat. Do you have a cat? Take out your phone. Open the camera roll. Be honest with yourself. How many cat pictures are in there?
