My cat once brought me a frog. He was an indoor cat and we were on the 2nd floor. I do not know where the frog came from.

Must have been very good at jumping.

[–] HiddenLayer5@lemmy.ml 27 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Imagine breaking the frog record for jumping and then getting eaten by a fucking cat before getting to pass on your genes.

This is why we cannot have nice things.

My cat is great at catching spiders. There are however a few caveats:

  1. Spiders must be sufficiently enormous to be fun. Somewhere between “Oh lawd he coming” and Shelob.

  2. Spider catching only happens at night, and only in the bedroom.

  3. Cat will make a few chirping noises to alert us that a spider is being hunted.

  4. All spiders must be delivered as gifts onto the chest or face of one of us.

  5. Note I only said great at ‘catching’. Delivered spiders are very much alive and very fucking irate about the current state of affairs.

I slammed my Blue Eyes White Dragon on my phone screen, but it didn't show me the text of the post?? Do I need a Black Lotus or something?

Finally a bright side to being such a light sleeper that my cats are not allowed in the bedroom!

One of our cats will violently paw at a door for at least half an hour when needed.

I legit just had to just let mine in the front door after she was flipping the weather strip for a good 15min, back door is wide open mind you and it's the one she walked out of 30mins prior

[–] FrostyCaveman@lemm.ee 11 points 1 year ago

Yeah same with my fella. It’s literally the LET ME IN meme

Some years ago when I was working for crap pay all the time, my cat learned to get attention when I’d run in to use the powder room. After that job was over, I could never shut the door to do my business while he was alive, for that reason.

[–] Diplomjodler@feddit.de 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Were you working as a pirate?

[–] Maeve@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

I worked retail in a corporation, so I guess that’s fair enough.

[–] Diplomjodler@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'd also ask why whoever wrote this has giant spiders in their bedroom.

Probably Australian. I believe it’s required by law there.

[–] Psaldorn@lemmy.world 30 points 1 year ago

My cat brings frogs and shelobs too, but from outside.

Sometimes also mouthfuls of ragweed from a pond, so he has a big green beard and he goes and gets more and piles it up next to me.

The pond plants are fine.

The fully alive animals that he then allows to roam free, not so much.

Bonus memory: oh, Biz looks like he's got a weird whisker twitch.. get up close nope it's half a giant spider fighting for freedom and vengeance. Spat it out on my lap. Extremely high pitch noises ensue.

This must be a uniquely terrifying experience for Aussie cat owners.

[–] King_Bob_IV@startrek.website 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I really don't think I would have a cat anymore if that happened more than once....

[–] Oka@lemmy.ml 10 points 1 year ago

I prefer mice, they taste better

[–] King_Bob_IV@startrek.website 5 points 1 year ago

Nope nope nope

[–] needthosepylons@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

That genuinely made me laugh, thank you OP!
