Oh sure, when the cat walks into a house and wants to live there, they're all "omg it's so cute" and "let's go buy it food and a bed", but when I do it, they're all "who the hell are you?" and "leave or I'm calling the cops" :(

Humans are just exceptionally weak to cute. If aliens ever show up and try to conquer us, we're going to be so screwed if they happen to be adorable.

I never liked cats at all and one did exactly that. Stupid fuck make me fall absolutely in love with it too.

The fact that only two creature in this world that will approach another creature 10 times bigger than them just so they get adopted is pretty impressive. That's how i adopted my 4th cat, little baby dude just came out from under a car and yell at me until i pick him up.

As of about three weeks ago a stray cat figured out how to use our doggie door.

Now we have a 2nd cat.

That makes it sound like the cat domesticated humanity not "The cat self domesticated itself"

They are funny, don't really need a lot of space and training, and look pretty. Ofc I will go and by whatever.

Lost opportunity to say "I live here meow"

I keep meowing at hot guys at the bar and none have taken me home yet 😭

Did cats domesticate humans, or did Toxoplasma gondii domesticate both of us?

They don't even meow to each other, just to humans. They know what they are about.

When I was a kid Mr Kitty unilaterally moved in despite belonging to the neighbors across the street and the stern objections of my father armed with a squirt gun.

Even with toys they are invading our space

I did my best to take a cat home today when I was at the local landfill. I don't even have space for another cat, it's just freezing here and he looked extra pathetic. He decided the dumpster was safer and u honestly can't blame him xD

I went to disagree untill I remembered there's a ginger cat that lives on my property that I feed sometimes

"Everybody wants to talk about X, nobody wants to talk about Y".
That's not gaslighting, that's whataboutism.

I love all cats, and they are free to walk inside anytime they want. Just no fighting in the house.

The cat that walked into my house and said "I live here meow."

Is anyone else bothered by people saying their cat is lost? -No; it left a toxic relationship! "They stole my cat" -Nah, it moved out!

Cats never domesticated themself, since ever they are specialists in domesticate humans, for commodity, not for need.
