I taught both my cats to jump into my arms and sit on my shoulder. The older one knows she's not to use claws, the younger one on the other hand .... But she's very cute so she's forgiven each time

This is amazing. How long did it take? Our newest kitten has tried to jump on me unprompted… claws and all 😬

It started with the youngest one also jumping up unprompted (with claws yes). I thought it would be kinda cool to discourage unprompted behaviour and encourage it with a command instead.

Took about a week or so? I used treats and tapped my shoulder, which is the signal to jump on.

Now, they don't need treats and just enjoy hanging out on my shoulder. The oldest one even learned to ask for it (she usually doesn't vocalize much, so when she does, its to jump onto my shoulder). She really enjoys chilling on my shoulder while I'm cooking

While it is adorable you might want to take your parrot to a vet

but mr flooples only wants to skin you and your family, that means mr flooples cares for you enough to even consider skinning you alive, right?

I own both cats and snakes and people never believe me when I say the cats do much more damage to me than the snakes (even though they do bite from time to time).

Still happy to let them sleep in my bed (the cats, not the snakes).

They do and with their cloaca. The cloaca being a singular pee/poop/sex orifice.

Who the fuck talks to a dog like this lol

Definitely have met more “crazy cat people” than dog people like this; and the dog people who are like this generally have the tiniest little yapper they can get their hands on, not a puppy who will become normal-sized one day. This post should have a Pomeranian or something
