Quote by Terry Pratchett

Boot-faced cats aren't born but made, often because they've tried to outstare or occasionally rape a speeding car and have been repaired by a vet who just pulled all the bits together and stuck the stitches in where there was room.

Summary

This quote humorously suggests that boot-faced cats, or cats with an unpleasant expression, are not inherently born with their appearance, but rather acquire it through peculiar experiences. It implies that these cats may have had encounters with cars, either by attempting to confront them or being involved in accidents. The description of being "repaired" by a vet with stitches is exaggerated to emphasize the absurdity and create a whimsical image of how boot-faced cats come to be.
