More people should be cats.

Is a cat, confirmed.

[-] FordBeeblebrox@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

Toxic or no you’re never not entertaining to watch cuz

[-] Albbi@lemmy.ca 10 points 4 days ago

Nonono, they're saying you're infected with toxoplasmosis.

[-] jjmoldy@lemmy.world 10 points 4 days ago

Listen, you gotta stop shitting in the kids' sand box. It's unhygienic!

[-] MyNameIsRichard@lemmy.ml 7 points 4 days ago

And they don't half complain when I bring them something small and dead!

Who's next?

What I like is that they're low maintainance in general but you can still invest a lot of emotional labour if you want to have a closer bond. There's so many levels of how much a cat trusts you. Never gets boring.

they know your name

they just respect the boundary

[-] pinball_wizard@lemmy.zip 8 points 4 days ago

Yes. That's why cats get along well with various magical kin. The cat learns their true name, but has the decency never to speak it.

[-] CatDogL0ver@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

They sure know our names as "servant"!

[-] tiredofsametab@fedia.io 33 points 4 days ago

Cats know their names after a while but often do not care to react to them (or at least not in the way the human wants)

[-] SupaTuba@lemm.ee 13 points 4 days ago

When his little ears turn backwards to me as soon as he hears his name...

But, alas, I could not name him the sound that treats make in the bag...else he'd be running towards me without fail...

The more I see a posts involving someone making up songs for their cat the more glad i am to know I'm not that crazy since apparently many other people do it too lol

I have made many "widdle kitty" remixes lol

[-] rustydrd@sh.itjust.works 6 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

I mean define "song". My girlfriend and I are no composers, but we got a lil jingle for our cat that features the word "potato" a lot.

[-] fossilesque@mander.xyz 16 points 4 days ago

little freeloaders, the lot of them

Izzy doesn't bite me. She steps on me a lot but she doesn't bite.

[-] GreenKnight23@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

mine is more like;

we don't get along. she bites me. we hug. she bites me. I make up little dialogue for her. she bites me. we're best friends. she bites me.
