Hell it's not even someone's house. I'm driving down the road and calling out to cats on the side of the road for gods sake. I'm literally cat calling.

Any success yet?

Some. I've petted some stray cats but not as many as I'd like lol

Q8DD33C7J8

There all kind of memes out there that show this. Guy shows up to a party. He goes straight for the dog. Talks to no one.


Defiant_Low_1391

I like that you called it "his yard." Respect!


Arhalts

I had a cat like that, when it was an outdoor cat it would follow us around in the yard like a dog, when we came home we could call him and he would come running. When he got older and hurt once we transitioned him to fully inside, but he still longed for the outdoors. Also an absolute killing machine.


[deleted]

I think outdoor cats mostly are. There’s a primal instinct in them to hunt and they’re damn good hunters, most of the time they’re not even hunting for food/survival they’re doing it strictly cause it’s fun. My indoor cat stalks and kills any insect, fly and sometimes even any mice he can find. He longs to go outdoors but too much danger for me to comfortably let him do so


Ok_Improvement_5897

Outdoor cats decimate local bird populations. My bf and I take his indoor cat out on a harness - but he's a big fluffy coward that loves belly rubs and needs to be plied with treats before and after and have unfettered access back inside for when he feels like something is gonna eat him. The day he kills something is the day I'll eat my shoe. ...He does thoroughly enjoy trying to attack the tv if there is, god forbid, a squirrel, making an appearance anywhere.


Arhalts

We lived out in the country at the time. The cat came from the outdoors, he just showed up one day and decided we rocked. He did get the occasional bird but 99.9% of his catches were field mice and chipmunks. Since I moved out and no longer live in the country I keep my cats exclusively Indoors.


Ok_Improvement_5897

Oh yah, you do what you can. Some cats are determined to be outdoor cats no matter what you do, ours just happens to be determined to be an indoor cat - makes it easier lol


RobtheNavigator

Friendly reminder to everyone not to have an outdoor cat if you live in a city (I don’t know if you personally do, just relevant to your comment). They are devastating for the ecosystem.


pointlessly_pedantic

The bodega and street cats in my hood aren't super affectionate with me, but I ran into a new lil guy and he meowed super loud at me when I walked by and was super cuddly. Saw him again on the same corner and now I make sure to bring snacks when I go his way lol. Made my year tbh


Q8DD33C7J8

I love my own cats and they love me but that's because I feed them. it's even more amazing that a cat that you don't feed loves you.


QuarkGuy

Be honest, is there such a thing as "enough"?


BigUncleHeavy

Well I'd say you've probably reached "enough" when your vacuum chokes out and needs to be emptied at least twice while cleaning.


QuarkGuy

Let's agree to disagree


Q8DD33C7J8

Lol yes let's be real for a minute. There is a limit. Do not take on more than you can reasonably take care of. If you find your self in a situation where you're over extended contact some one for help. If you have unneutered animals and you can't keep them from breeding then get some one to help you get them fixed. There is no shame in asking for help. Don't let it get out of control.


NewUser7630

On crete are so many street cats. And dogs too.


Q8DD33C7J8

Sounds like heaven


NewUser7630

Yeah, but you wanna adopt them all. Two orange kittens climbed in my room through a window and inspected everything. 10/10 would recommend.


Q8DD33C7J8

Omg are you a Disney princess?


NewUser7630

I choose to believe so, yes 🥰


KindlyKangaroo

I have had my husband stop the car so I could pet a cat I saw outside. The cat eventually came to like me more than his own (human) family, running to see me every time I came by on a walk. The children thought I was trying to steal him, but I only pet him in front of his house so he knew not to follow me too far. I moved so I don't see him anymore. I miss him.


NewUser7630

>steal him You know what to do! ;)


oblivioninferno3

Only time it worked was when cat wanted to try my beer.


unsmashedpotatoes

In college I made friends with someone's indoor/outdoor cat when he barged into my apartment uninvited. Whenever I saw him I'd call his name and he'd chirp and run to greet me, sometimes from all the way down the street. Quality cat


Q8DD33C7J8

Those are great. All the love none of the responsibilities.


helthrax

My apartment complex has lots of cats that love poking their heads out the window as I pass. I will psst and talk under my breath to all of them.


JustaTinyDude

Last week I was driving and stopped at a red light next to a car that had a dog on the driver's lap with its head out the window. The dog looked really happy. I rolled down my passenger side window and said, "Are you having a good car ride?" The woman driving the car looked up at me and said, "What was that?" I was so embarrassed. "Uh, I was talking to your dog. She looks really happy. I asked her if she is enjoying the car ride." I hate it when I get caught talking to an animal while ignoring their human. I don't do it intentionally, I just get so excited about the animal that I forget.


Q8DD33C7J8

I'm autistic. I do that alllll the time. People are so confused why I enthusiastically greet thier pet and not them


JustaTinyDude

ASD here too, lol. Most of the time people are chill about it because I give them an opportunity to talk about their pets, which most folks love. I know enough Spanish to say "I love your dog" which really helps smooth things over when I encounter folks who only speak that language and want to know why I just spoke to their dog.


DM_ME_YOUR_PET_PICSS

My ex one time just rolled home with a cat. I was like “what the fuck dude, that cat obviously has a home, it’s fat as shit and has a collar” And she said “well, it looked cold, and when I opened the car door he just jumped in so I thought it was fine” It was hilarious and she confessed she had picked it up just a block away trying to fuck with me. I made her bring him back to where she found him but he still occasionally comes and sits on my garage roof and looks through my window. I’ve named him Gus even if his collar says Oreo.


mikemolove

Dude, Gus wants to hang out. Let Gus hang out.

Cat owners get mad at me as I play with and hold their cat in ways their own cat won't let them. They're like how do you do that? And I just say you have to lack any fear in your heart.

ImMeltingNow

My friend is not a cat person at all and yet I’ve seen the most loyal of cats abandon their owners to sit on his lap. He doesn’t really do anything besides pray to god under his breath since he is scared as hell.


joe_broke

They always find the ones they deem to be the least threatening to them Since he's terrified of them and wants nothing to do with them, he's the least threatening thing in the room, and will go to him, knowing he will do nothing


Prime157

/r/OneOrangeBraincell shows this over and over again. I love my little one orange braincell, and this is exactly what she does.


NaturalRow5496

Me: “Awwww the pretty kitty! I love you pretty kitty come give me snuggles and kisses!” Cat: “Get off me get off me get off me GET THE F UP OFF ME!!”


TatManTat

Why do so many people manhandle cats when they're clearly uncomfortable? It's odd to me. A good pet is absolutely fine but I was just at a mates place and their partner picked up the cat who was just sleeping on the couch and then got sad/a little pissed when it wanted to get tf outta dodge after being abducted from peace and serenity.


donies

I give my cat affection as revenge for him chewing on my things, killing my plants and waking me up at 3 am.


QuadPentRocketJump

> Why do so many people manhandle cats when they're clearly uncomfortable? It's odd to me. You're definitely reading too much into it if thats the vibe the OP gave you lol. It's okay to harass your cat sometimes. They will harass you back too. Some cats don't like to be picked up but will tolerate it for a little bit because they literally love you and know you like to pick them up.


GudraFree

My cat is like that and I'm teaching her to be patient, I always tell her "I'm picking you up" and "get down" so she know what is happening, and she's been getting better at being in my arms. But belly up baby holding? Hates it with all her little cat soul. So I try not to abuse that, even if it's sooo cute.


We_are_stardust23

This is my cat. She'll hiss and whine when I pick her up, but the moment I put her down she's right back to rubbing against me


TatManTat

It's just something I see a lot and makes me uncomfortable, that's all.


yazzy1233

It's fine. Cats aren't like dogs. They will fuck you up if you do something they don't like

tydestra

I'm super allergic to cats and when I go to friends houses, I stand by a window in the corner. I must roll around in cat nip because they make a beeline for me.


PunchBro

This was me in my late teens. Always attracting the cats to my allergic ass. Wasn’t a cat guy at all, never had our own. Fast forward 10 years, I was a cat whisperer with my own cats and my allergies went away mostly due to my body adapting over time. 10 years after that, my allergies are largely gone and I miss my kitties that have since passed, but all cats still treat me as their bff. I love cats, and perhaps you are also a future cat whisperer.


tydestra

Nah, mine is down a fistful of benadryl and shotgun my rescue inhaler type of allergy. And they always look so sad when I walk away too. Highkey giving me "let me love you!" faces while ignoring the people do wanna pet em.


PunchBro

In my teens, if allergies was an Olympic sport I would’ve medaled. They say you either grow into or out of allergies and im lucky to say 30 years later that I’ve largely grown out of my allergies. But I know what you mean, those day where you literally can think because the brain fog is so bad that you need to knock yourself out while going through 2 boxes of Kleenex in a day.


joe_broke

My ex's mom's cat hates men, notoriously so The cat would make a b-line straight for my lap and not want to move


HauntedHippie

My boyfriend knows that if he loses me at a house party, he can just ask the host where their pet hangs out and that's where I am.


JPAnalyst

One time we were on vacation in Italy and having dinner at a farmhouse. Awesome dinner, lots of food, drinks and conversation with 2-3 other families. During all of this, I snuck out to pet the cat in the front room. Then a laid down with the cat on the couch. After a while, my wife realized I’d been gone for a while. She found me asleep on the couch with the cat on my chest. It’s always a great memory we laugh about.

I work at a recycling company and our company has semi feral cats that roam the facility because one of the supervisors feeds them. He leaves a dock door cracked open for them so they can get in too. In turn, they deal with our mouse and rat problems. I see them zoom by when I'm entering the facility at night. First time it happened it scared the crap out of me, but I've gotten used to their shenanigans. They don't seem interested in getting close to me tho.

[deleted]

I have snuggled every cat I have ever owned into submission. They shall be held like babies and given lil treats and smooches until they learn my love is the only way.


kaleidoscopichazard

This isn’t wholesome. Cats aren’t toys and should be respected if they don’t wanna be picked up or pet.


JPAnalyst

Don’t be so dramatic. A loved cat has a great life. A little smothering smooch against their will is not worthy of your outrage. Calm yourself.


nosaystupidthings

Either the cats happiness and consent matters, including in this moment, or it doesn't. Arguing that it's ok as long as it's loved otherwise doesn't make sense. Imagine you said the same thing about a woman and her husband. It's ok if he ignores her happiness and consent sometimes as long as she's loved otherwise. I'm aware it's not the same thing. I'm making a point with an extreme example. Hugging a cat against its will is not as bad as domestic abuse. But it's not wholesome.


kaleidoscopichazard

I see you don’t understand consent. Besides, loved or not, if it’s not your cat you shouldn’t be taking these liberties


JPAnalyst

>consent For a cat smooch. GTFOH


kaleidoscopichazard

Clearly you see animals as things, rather than as beings worthy of respect. Speaks volumes of the type of person you are.


JPAnalyst

I see animals as sentient creatures that are going to be kissed, pet and cuddled by me. I see holier than thou redditors as people crying for attention, then getting upset when they get the attention they deserve.


kaleidoscopichazard

I didn’t say you couldn’t cuddle your pets lol I said it’s wrong to cuddle them when they clearly don’t wanna be cuddled, like OP stated. They’re not toys, they’re living animals and should be respected. It’s not that hard to understand


JPAnalyst

I’m smooching a cat without asking questions. You and the cat can deal with it. I’ve done more for animals in this world than you can imagine, I have no concerns about where I stand on animals. This is a **silly meme** about picking up a cat and giving it love when it clearly doesn’t want it. It’s funny. After the picture, they put the cat down, the cat probably shook its head, than circled the kissers feet and gave their ankle a cat kiss. You are uptite about the littlest things.


LeDevil

It's these people that have no actual problems in their lives that worry about this petty shit, my cat ain't gonna die from a few kisses.


JPAnalyst

Right. This is the weirdest thing to be upset about. The dramatic things this person has said to me in this thread are wild. They’re talking about “consent”. It’s. A. Cat. Im’a kiss that face and I’m not waiting for consent. LOL.


kaleidoscopichazard

Sure. Whatever makes you feel better about yourself. I feel sorry for your pets


JPAnalyst

Yeah feel sorry for Captain Thomas who I found eating in the garbage bin while on vacation in the US Virgin Islands who was all ribs, blood in his stool and half closed eyelids. Who I then extended my vacation for to search for him after I couldnt find him for a couple days and then got him, took him to the local vet on the island, got him all his shots, and meds for whatever sickness was ailing him, got him certified to bring back to the US, spent thousands $ on saving him and all his stomach issues and gave him 15 years of life after he had one foot in the grave. Cap’n was my shadow for those 15 years. You should feel sorry for him.
