Margaret Cho Brings Fierce Feline Competition in First Look (PHOTOS)

Call Me Kat is introducing an intense competition for the April 27 episode, “Call Me Pretty Kitty,” in which Margaret Cho guest stars. In an exclusive first look at the installment, the comedian and actress plays Val, a fellow cat lover who is “sugary sweet” when she’s not competing.

In sneak peek photos, above, and below, viewers are getting a taste of what they can expect from the installment which sees Kat (Mayim Bialik) attempting to take her breakup with Max (Cheyenne Jackson) off her mind by attending a cat show with Sheila (Swoosie Kurtz) and Randi (Kyla Pratt). It’s at this cat show that Kat encounters Val.

While Val doesn’t think Kat and her feline stand a chance of bringing home the trophy, this sparks Kat’s competitive side, turning the fun outing into an unexpected match. As for Cho’s character, Val, she’s also described as a local cat lover who is prominent in the cat show circuit. She can be dismissive and patronizing, which earns Sheila’s respect until that is turned around on Kat.
