Your cat is autistic. Actually, all cats might be.
when did it become acceptable to just call everything autism? i can tell you im pretty damn sick of it and it hasnt even been that long.
Same thing happened with OCD as well. It’s just natural changes in language. This one will pass as well and there will be a new word in a few years
true all around
edit … on second thought, im not sure i agree its a “natural change in language” so much as it is a cultural meme that people just thoughtlessly parrot. so, i feel language hasnt changed so much as a term of the moment has. but anyway, im rambling. cheers.
so much as it is a cultural meme that people just thoughtlessly parrot.
Honestly, I think that’s a big part of how language naturally evolves
agreed, but individual terms trending or not, dont equate a “change of the language” so much as a change of whats trending in said language. a semantic nitpick, to be sure. :)
It is funny how much cats enjoy different surfaces, leave out a notebook? Come out and a cat is sitting/laying on it, box left out? There’s a cat in there now.
Piece of paper? You guessed it, cat butt plopped right down.
And yet. Aluminum foil is a very anti cat material
My cats do not gaf, though I have heard that mentioned before as a way to try and train them to not get on certain surfaces.
We covered the beds with it while we’re on vacation. Going to find out today how well it worked.
The days before vacation our cats were in or on luggage at all times. My cat (we all get one…so far) is a on someone’s article of clothing. If there’s no hoodie or jacket laying around he’ll use a pile of laundry right next to a perfectly good cat bed.
If not for sitting then why is square??
Floor is lava
Defined spaces feel safer.
Whatever you do, do it right
“Why you ask ? Do you not realize how dirty this chair is ? I rub my butthole all over it all the time !” -cat
The Contract must be abided.
It is not your place to ask. It is your place to admire.
Is it the sound? My cat’s absolute favorite toy was a felt ball with crinkly, noisy plastic in it. But she also loved sitting on card stock laid on soft surfaces.
All my cats have liked crinkly things. Maybe because it instinctively reminds them of the rustling of prey in grass?
This is art
“Didn’t get second breakfast OR second dinner in AGES!! Mailing myself away”
For some reason our cat absolutely loves dragging/pulling a piece of paper on the floor. Leaves a tiny piece out and he’s moonwalking around the room with it.
The ritual is complete
You don’t ask why with cats.
