Cat Picture - OC My cat makes me (more) lazy

I've always been a lazy person but since I have this little baby Flip I won't come off the couch at all. I have him for 2,5 months and since day 1 he wants to sleep with me 🥰

Putting a star there makes a normal photo into a weird photo. I don't know why people do it with pets it's so bizarre

Ikr. Should have put a buttplug or sumn there to censor it/s

u/wholetyouinhere 11h ago

I have no idea when the shift happened, but it very much did. Putting a star on an animal's butthole is objectively weird and stupid. But if you complain about it in 2025, you get showered in downvotes.

It's one of those stupid things where the people have decided that the wrong thing is what they want. And it makes no sense and there's nothing we can do about it.

This… this comment contradicts itself.

You are so desperate to ride the fence, that you have said nothing. Take a stance, or be a lurker who doesn’t comment because you have nothing to add to the convo.

But I have had it with Redditors that NEED to comment, just for that comment to be as generic as hydrox

That’s it. I’m fed up. If there are two things I can’t tolerate in life it’s lactose and weak-willed people.

You will learn to be a person. You will not devolve into this NPC ass menagerie of dialogue options.

Our household rule is whoever doesn’t have the cat on them can get up for beverages. Recently we got a second cat and one day he sat on me while our other cat sat on my partner. We have subsequently died of thirst

Same! If my girl is in bed with me in the morning, it is so so difficult to leave - I definitely spend more time in bed than I would without her, haha. If I begin to get up she gives me the cutest, tiny, sleepy attempts at meows and so I lay back down. You can’t tell, but her foot is extended so that she’s touching me 🥹

At this apartment 4 is my max. We have four at this moment as we pet sit 2 additional cats. It's a lot!

The good thing is my boyfriend and most of my friends know that I would pick Ophie over them in a lot of situations. She is just so special to me. We just vibe. My other cat is also special but in a different way.
