My cat meows sadly when she can't find mosquitoes to hunt... Which is most of the time, because she's indoors most of the time. And if she finds them, she meows because she can't reach them without assistance, cuz they hang out up high most of the time.

I had a pretty prolific bug hunter myself at one time! 🐈‍⬛

Didn’t know cats hunt mosquitoes. But those bugs are so tiny, what's the point hunting them?

When you have no access to porn, every underwear magazine will do.

The point is it’s fun because there’s nothing bigger to hunt.

Tiny thing move fast, therefore fun to chase. That's all really.

Now that makes sense. Especially from cat's POV.

I used to have a cat that hunted invisible mosquitos that didn’t exist.

Man, fuck mosquitos. I'm all for cats taking them out. If only they'd target them instead of the local bird population.

[–] Bebo@literature.cafe 3 points 1 year ago

Now I totally support that. Mosquitoes are pests. They spread horrible diseases.

This is my cat all the time. She does it so the dogs will chase her
