That's one spunky little girl you've raised. I'm gonna eat her.

Up with the sun

But cat logic is not our logic, or we'd lick our asses more often.

I often tell my cats, "I am going out into the world of things and ideas, while you stay here and lick yourselves" when I'm leaving for work.

Sadly, I think they know they get the better deal.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

If there is even a speck of something in it, she will start meowing like crazy and finally drink out the toilet.

My cat is totally like that. He just hates water that's been sitting, speck in it or not. Which I can understand, actually.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

Holy crap.

Roll call on the cat thing.

I'm a dog dude. Had a cat. Got over it.

Devi drowns things in the waterdishes and drinks out of the toilet.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Gus, sounds like you had a defective evil cat. Don't take your bitterness due to bad cat choices out on the rest of us.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Roll call on the cat thing.

Dogs.

I'm also pro-melted cheese on bread with beer.

What is even happening?

Lyra, your goodbye to your cats made me snort.

I had a cat. She died. I had another cat. He died. No more cats for me. They die. But I like the cat talk. I like cats. I'm just never going to love one, again. I already have people, who also die, but on average, have a longer shelf-life.

No. I'm not going to change my mind--at least I haven't for ~20 years.

My dog won't drink dirty water either. And she won't eat off plates. If we leave her food on a plate, she sneaks up to it from the side, gets close enough to tip it with her nose and then shoots off under the table, from where she can stare at the cunningly inanimate object for ten or fifteen minutes before repeating the process.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Totally a dog person, to the extent of them living outdoors and I live indoors, but I will think fondly of them often and play with them at least twice a week.

My dog's the same way. She'll drink out of her water bowl only when I first put it down. After that, it's the toilet for her.

My sister's cat will just sit at the sink and meow until you turn the tap on for her.
