Same deal with my two cats when they come back from the groomer. They went to the grommer together, they see other getting fur cut, went home together, still don't recognize each other ๐Ÿ˜‘

"Who is this new cat who looks like my brother but with shorter hair and soapy smell?"

Or

"You went to the groomer?! You sellout! You're not my brother anymore!"

-- the cat probably

I have two cats. Once I had a 4 houseguests staying in the living room for a week. After they left my one cat (the dumb one, obviously) didn't recognize her sister anymore. At no point did any cat leave the premises.

It's easy to double post with Jerboa. Maybe they're using that?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago

Yeah, I'm using jerboa. Crashed when I first tried to comment, then I submitted the comment again. Apparently the first one went through.

Hell half the time I try to post on Jerboa, the app crashes but the comment still posts. Who knows lol.

Do you respect the proper cat greeting etiquette: presenting one's butt to the other's nose?

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I don't see how her sniffing my butt would restore trust in her older sister, but I'll give it a try.

You can participate, but you can also let the cats do it to each-other ๐Ÿค“

We have two cats and our name for this phenomenon is โ€œother brotherโ€. As in, each cat is convinced their brother has been replaced with a doppelganger that isnโ€™t quite right. Hence, โ€œother brotherโ€.
