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

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

[-] Albbi@lemmy.ca 11 points 11 months ago

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

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

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.

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)

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...

they know your name

they just respect the boundary

[-] pinball_wizard@lemmy.zip 9 points 11 months 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 11 months ago

They sure know our names as "servant"!

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

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 11 months ago

little freeloaders, the lot of them

[-] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 2 points 11 months ago

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