  Every single day I see something from a pet owner that reaffirms how happy I am to not have pets.

  Nine pounds apparently is around 4kg, that’s well within the normal weight range for a cat, why are you calling beans out for it?

  Our Cleo once grabbed a whole KFC drumstick, and managed to swallow it whole. That was one expensive evening at Kitty ER.

  She also frickin LOVES Parmesan cheese. I caught her getting into a large cabinet, and in the back she had a stash of those little packets, like you get at a pizzeria.

  You will want thick gloves, a thick towel, and a container with lid to insert the cat into. Beans is not declawed, and knows you will struggle to maneuver under the bed. You may need a spray bottle of water as well.

  Good luck.

    declawed

    I haven’t yet had my fingertips snipped off either. Lovely euphemism for “mutilation of extremities”.

      Me, looking up what declawing actually does: wtf that’s not declawing, that’s amputation!

      Reading further: “can lead to behavioural issues” no shit, you don’t say…

      Do you just go around looking to be offended?

    No. Eyes don’t match. So the whole movie monster fails. The terror of cat’s eyes (specifically in the dark, when you can’t determine size and distance of the cat) is hard coded into our brains. An evolutionary thing as “cats” for most of the time used to be on the upper end of the food chain and your chances of reproduction massively raised if you were the first one to spot the cat - and run for your live. Just look at the typical cartoon panel symbolizing the dark and dangerous unknown, a dark place with cat’s eyes looking out. You’ll be subtily terrified - if the shape and proportions match the “cat” scheme.

  Beans is in charge around here.

  Beans decides what the humans do and when.

  Beans makes the humans ask permission to eat, sleep, exit and enter the house, and go to the toilet.

  Sometimes Beans says no.

  I cooked a lobster tail once, and our big alpha tomcat decided that he was just going to take it from me, right off my plate. I was more than willing to share, but he had other plans.

  He had NEVER tried to steal anything before, he just really loved the smell of that lobster.

    So what kind of violin did you make from him?

    • BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today ⁨9⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Not my Jake, he was a varmint, but we loved him. He took his job protecting us very seriously. But that lobster just smelled toooo good. I get it.

  Beans would learn about the spray bottle that day. He would growl and be wet at the same time. Sad thing he knew he was not getting any of this without taking action so he took his chances. You may chastise him but he has already won

  My dog resource guards. I don’t know if I’m supposed to do this but when she gets in that mood I feel it is important that she not “win”. I’m thinking this would reinforce that behavior.

  I get bit a lot.

    You should swap out the thing she has with something else of value. Treats, licky mat, toy, another piece of meat, whatever. This gets her used to something being taken off her and it not being a bad thing. Eventually the swap is just for praise or a pat, but for really valuable things you may still need something more valuable.
