we’re laughing but the only animals to display self awareness in mirrors are humans, apes, dolphins, and elephants. this is actually super remarkable
The cool part is that as time goes on domestic animals are just going to get smarter and smarter, because we value these traits in them. And, as evolution shows us, if a trait is beneficial in an environment (humans being the environment) it is more likely to survive and be passed on.
So remember how I bought a motion activated night light for the toilet? Well the cats seem to have discovered it. So I went to for a late night piss and was greeted to an ominous sight
I relate on a spiritual level with the absolute fury in that cat’s face in the last gif
No no no, that is not an angry cat, that is a patient cat!!! Look at that relaxed body language! That cat is letting that puppy chew on its ear–I guarantee you it does NOT have to put up with that. Puppo’s excited paws are flailing all over kitty’s face yet all we get is a patient slow blink??? No thrashing tail, either, please note.
This is not an angry kitty. This is a VERY GOOD KITTY who is being super duper patient with a very young pupper and has probably been around puppies all its life. A Very Good Cat indeed!!!
“this is a very excited baby but that’s okay because it’s a baby”
(cats usually seem to know when a member of another species is a baby. baby animals often get much more leeway in nonsense than adults would)
Here’s a cat with less severe brachycelaphy than the one below. Probably a functional cat! Still not the best skull design, but workable. Definitely cute. Very round.
we’ve started feeding this tortoiseshell-point siamese recently. she’s beautiful, aside from the fact she has disturbingly big, bulging blue eyes. we’ve started calling her… ‘goop’
it’s goop!
GUESS WHO HAD GOOPLETS! SIX ENTIRE BABIES! mama goop held onto her gooplings for an entire week longer than she had to, so the gooplitos came out very well done and fluffy!!
