Then again you really should notice long before a cat gets this fat. Unless you turned off your brain or something. This is way too fat to be considered an accident.

I looked up the full article about his case and they wrote that the shaving happened because he has to walk on a treadmill to help him loose weight. They submerged that treadmill under some water to help ease stress on the poor cat’s joints. They also take him getting stuck as a good sign because he used to be so fat he wasn’t able to move at all and his attempt at escape is proof that he’s becoming more energetic.

Even products from reputable companies can malfunction. I’d be unable to continue living if a cat of mine died because of some tech stuff I bought which wasn’t even needed in the first place. They’re my beloved family and I will not be putting them at risk, no matter how tiny and close(!) to zero that may be, when I can just completely zero said risk. I’ll keep scooping that litter box manually.

I’m not sure if I’ll be able to stomach watching the video so I’ll skip that. I’m just happy I’m way too paranoid when it comes to my cat’s safety to use anything that works automatically in places the cat can reach on it’s own without me being right there.

Even if something works just fine at the start: everything can start to malfunction. I don’t care if the chance is so tiny it might not exist, if I can make it even smaller I’m all for it.

But thanks for sharing the danger these things are.

The set has to be “cat + multiple braincells”. They probably specified it’s a set because in case of oranges there’s only cat until it has it’s turn with the singular braincell.

It seems to depend on what you use to access Lemmy. With Jerboa all I get is a blank. With Eternity I’m getting this:

See? You disrupted the gentle energies of Zen keeping her in place with your photo taking.

How can a cat steal what always has belonged to said cat by default?

Why do I have to immediately think of the “dancing mat Dark Souls” someone did? You for sure don’t need your hands to play when you can just use your feet.

These are the moments where I wish dishwashers had a see-through door. It would make for some really awesome cat-cinema.

The internet challenges that pop up from time to time (think tide pod challenge as most extreme case) kindly ask you to reconsider tht sentence.

With raw meat you always have to be careful. If it’s super fresh cats can eat fish/chicken raw. However if you’re not sure about how fresh it is I’d definitely steam it because salmonella is a thing.

There’s special raw meat (chicken mainly) sold as food quality for cats l where I live and that one I’m feeding to my cats raw: They adore it.

However when I just buy chicken in the supermarket I’m always steaming it before chopping off some pieces for my cats because I can’t be sure about there maybe being bacteria or so that really should be heated to death first. There’s differences in how much the stores and such have to pay attention when labeling something “food quality in raw” vs “food quality after properly heating up”.
