I don't know why but I just absolutely love pictures like this.

I love it because you know that driver was giggling about it all day. As they should lol

Cats always consider themselves to be in charge, so this is logical.

I didn’t know you could order cats

[–] Surdophobe@kbin.social 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's the receptionist, you don't "order" from a staffing agency.

The cat signed for the delivery with a pawprint and let the driver go.

Good work (idk if app is glitching it won't give me menu for any parent comment. Can't even vote on?) On memmy. Like it so far and random bugs I meet are fixed within 24hr.

Eta: ok yeah it is a bug this was in response to 200ok

I do love this pic tho! Bet it made the driver's day and amused themselves all day, I know I would haha.

Is that a three legged cat?

[–] I_Fart_Glitter@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Cats use a "direct register" walking style, which means they put their hind foot down in exactly the same spot their forefoot on the same side just was. This cat is walking forward and lifting up their left front paw so we would expect the left rear paw to be reaching forward for that spot and out of view from this angle.

Have 2 cats and never knew this. Thanks for the knowledge!

No, it's got 4 legs, though one of them is sticking out at a weird angle. And it didn't appear to have a tail.
