Floor is lava
If not for sitting then why is square??
Becca also watched this cat arrange their paws for five minutes. Who actually wasted their time? No one, that’s who.
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.
I’m glad nobody is watching me all the time and making fun of the things I do and posting it to the internet. I don’t know how many countless times I’ve done something even more worthless than trying to put my feet on a piece of paper.
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.
My cat builds himself entire nests out of loose paper he finds laying around. We’ve come home to find him nestled on the middle of the couch on top of sheets of paper, looking very proud of himself.
Same with mine. I started tossing that thin brown packing paper from deliveries into a corner behind an armchair. It’s like his own little paper jungle and he loves it. Just have to remember to fluff it occasionally and pull out the old stuff.
Haha, semi-similar there was wrapping paper on the floor, he had clearly chewed it up/ripped it up and similarly made a nest of sorts on the pile. Cats are silly.
Feels different. Thank you for attending my Ted Talk.
Paper is temporary. Ground is forever.
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?
Babies go nuts for crinkles for a few months of development. I wonder if it’s related.
Possibly, although it wouldn’t be because of the prey thing! More like it provides stimulating sensory feedback.
The ritual is complete
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.
