    To use “u”, “ur”, and “your” in the same sentence is mind-blowing.

    in case of cats, you just gotta learn that if they want to be with you they would be already there so no point in carrying them

      that’s true but my cat HAVE to watch me while I shower. If I close the door and leave her outside she’ll scream like someone is breaking her bones. I’m seriously afraid someone is going to call ASPCA, so I just carry her to the bathroom when I’m going to take a shower or I’ll have to stop mid-shower to open the door.

      Things cats makes us do…

    When your kid tells you he’s VERY HUNGRY and you do this wonderful meal, and he takes 2 bites and says he’s full 🤬. At that moment, those 2ms after he says that, you really hate that little fucker’s guts.

      We had to feed next door’s kid one day because of some family emergency.

      “How many fish fingers do you want?”

      “Two”

      Sits down, eats one.

      “You said you wanted two…”

      “I only ever eat one but my mum always puts two out because she thinks it looks mean if she only gives me one.”

        Yep, same reason. You always make like A LOT extra… in case he/she wants some more… in reality, you become a cold meal expert when you’re a parrent.

          I got chickens. It’s great because I couldn’t throw food away, they are happy to complement their diet with whatever the babies drop or don’t eat, and I feel good as it keeps the chooks happy and it contributes to making eggs! Win win.

            Yeah, I live in a building though… and have parrots. It’s not like I could give that to the parrots, they’re fairly small.

            But a neighbour has a dog and I try to give him leftovers from time to time. I really don’t like throwing food away or letting it rot. I am fortunate enough that I can afford that meal, not everyone is as lucky as me.

        The second one is to keep the cat distracted long enough that you can eat the first one.

    That’s just its way of getting you to pick it up again.

    That works both ways. I took my cats to the vet yesterday. They only realized it wasn’t a camping trip when we pulled out without packing the dogs or any gear.

    I might get downvoted but it’s not betrayal. Betrayal would be if the pet called the cops on you. That’s why pets can’t talk.

    Having the pet go anywhere else might be a let down but it’s not betraying you for wanting to be elsewhere
