On another flight one day, Vince and Bruce were talking business when McMahon overheard somebody fawning over their cats. They couldn't wait to get home and see their little kitties, and that outraged the WWF owner. To him, cats had "no integrity" (unlike dogs).

What followed was quite the rant about the animal kingdom.

After ragging on cats for their lack of honour and loyalty, McMahon turned his attention to giraffes and, for some reason, decided it'd be best to call them total "pussies". This prompted Bruce to ask why his boss hated the creatures so much, and Vince fired back that you "can't trust an animal that eats leaves all day".

To him, it was silly for an animal to eat plants when it could be a predator and hunt for its food instead. Explaining that giraffes are herbivores didn't work for Prichard; McMahon was so appalled by them and clearly just fancied a rant.
