      Those boomers have a decent enough pension to be able to buy food for that many pets, in their bought and paid off home. I’m struggling with 3 cats in social housing.

    You’d have to get pretty lucky with cats. Mine jumped over the garden fence yesterday and then got stuck and had to be rescued from the shadow dimension of the side passage, because apparently it’s a one-way fence.

      we got two cats. one was orange. one was not. we figured the orange would give us trouble. he did. not before the other one got her tail trapped in the blinds somehow and broke it. like, she got it wrapped around one of the slats of large-slatted venetian blinds somehow, got the greebles and when the ran off it broke. the tail, not the blinds.

      gonna be honest, after having that cat for a few years now, i’m surprised it hasn’t happened again, she hasn’t taken off at full 12 pounds of fury (instead of last time with all 2.5 pounds of her) and broke the damn tail off. because it sounds like something she’d do for fun.

      all the orange one’s got is anxiety. i wonder why.

    From the witching community, you’d have pretty good luck befriending the local murder of crows with cheap bread. Upgrade the bread as the shinies they bring you improve.

    According to the meme, pretty soon you’re a Batman villain.

      i mean, it’s only logical to assume you can train cats to burgle, right?

      and as for your moth, those guys are fools. i’m a barber, and i had a moth come into my shop one night and it started telling me all about its feelings. i was like, ‘why are you telling me this stuff? i’m a barber. you need a psychologist.’ and all he said was, ‘well your light was on…’

    Obviously a true story. Cats are famously easy to train. Also, the image has words on it that support this story.

    Police force investing in time and money to investigate an old woman who trained her cats to steal a sock or a curtain.

    … while the police force secretly negotiates and collaborates with the mafia on local cocaine trafficking.
