French Minister for European Affairs Nathalie Loiseau reportedly wrote on her private Facebook page that she named her cat Brexit because the animal is indecisive.

“He wakes me up every morning meowing to death because he wants to go out, and then when I open the door he stays put, undecided, and then glares at me when I put him out,” Loiseau said, according to Le Journal du Dimanche.

BRITISH PARLIAMENT VOTES IN FAVOR OF BREXIT DELAY, UNCLEAR IF EU LEADERS WILL ACCEPT

The politician’s comment, which may have been tongue-in-cheek, comes days after British lawmakers in Parliament voted in favor of a delay in the country’s departure from the European Union, just weeks before the U.K. was due to leave.

Lawmakers voted 412-202 in favor of the motion, which urges Prime Minister Theresa May’s government to go to Europe and request an extension past the March 29 deadline. In 2016, the U.K. voted to leave the European Union.
