Charming. However, I'll still eat you if you die.

-The cat probably

[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 day ago

Just because they'll eat you if you die doesn't mean they don't love you. It just means that cats do not believe the body and the soul are the same thing. Once the vessel is empty, it can be consumed to further strengthen those remaining. It is a thing of honor to nourish those you leave behind. The cats know this.

They don't understand, but even if they did, they wouldn't care.

My old cat years ago lifted up his little paw... To grab my lip with his claw and split it open trying to pull my mouth shut.

This study has been peer reviewed (by me)

This works well with dogs, too. My little Monster (Monty is his Christian name, but he responds to Monty, Monster, Grumbles, and Little Boy) loves being sung to. He smashed his floppy, floppy ear against your face so you have to sing directly into it, and he howls when you get to a certain part of the song

But only if you really mean it.

...would anybody like a peanut?

[–] 69420 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

No more rhyming, I mean it!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

You can't just use the same words and call it a rhyme.. peanut

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You say that, but I just tried this with my 21 year old cat, Murphy, and he straight up scratched my face and now it won't stop bleeding. I have a job interview in 2 days and will probably look like I've been slashed.

[–] toynbee 9 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Assuming it's not a bit, good luck at your interview. I believe in you!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (2 children)

Cheers. I'll smash it, I'm sure, but I'll definitely have to mention the 2 inch slice on my face. It'll be an ice-breaker.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago

FWIW, I would never ask someone about an injury during a job interview. I'm just a stranger on the internet, though, so who knows.

[–] Zachariah 2 points 1 day ago

Aw, he did it for your own good.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I'd like to anecdotally corroborate (also in my home)

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago

The few times I’ve tried singing to my cat, he walked away.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Amen to that 🙏🏼
