[@Lesley_RedRhody]

How old is Mochi? The only thing I’ve ever heard Arin and Dan say about him is he predates GameGrumps. And I think Arin said that Moch-Man has already lived past his breed’s life expectancy.

[@BrobdingnagianPants]

There's one we prefer. Not going to say which, but we all prefer one of the two.

[@BrobdingnagianPants]

@@Lesley_RedRhody From what they're saying, probably 13+. My previous cats lived to 17, so hoping Moch-man lives even longer!

Omg, they discovered probably the best dark comedy movie premise ever. People think there is a murderer in the house or a ghost and they keep being the instruments of their own demise when in reality its just a cat swatting things around the house.

[@Nachtiu2]

This actually sort of exists! The Shadow Of The Cat is an older horror movie where a cat witnesses the murder of its owner, and seeks revenge by luring the people who killed the owner into, basically, ending themselves because of their own stupidity.

[@metleon]

Owning a cat is actually the cure for thinking your house is haunted. Weird noise? Probably just the cat. Glowing eyes in the hallway? Definitely cat. Bloody footprints on the walls and ceiling? Cat.

@@metleon truth, I... don't actually fear the reaper now, just what my cat is doing

[@speedymcrunfast3]

Fun thing about cat behavior! A lot of the misinformation around why cats do the things they do is because people heard about how European wild cats behave. African wild cats, and domestic cats derived from them are pack animals. When you cat brings you a "gift" of something they've killed they are not showing you how to hunt, they are providing extra food to the nursing, sick, or old members of its pack. I supposed you can still take that as an insult.

[@BrobdingnagianPants]

True, that is a common misconception. In my case, if my cat could bring me a beer or two after a hangover I'd take it as the gospel truth.

[@foxygrin]

Are you sure they're pack animals? I can't find anything about African Wildcats living in groups larger than just mother+kittens

[@pyran2597]

I was also super curious! I'm not sure if anyone else will be interested in this, but I figured I'd share what I found. I found some anecdotal accounts of African Wildcats forming colonies of related individuals, perhaps a few different litters of different ages, though it doesn't seem to be long-term. I wasn't able to find a reliable primary source. However, it can be argued that since African Wildcats are the origin of domestic cats, and domestic cats do form colonies, it makes sense that African Wildcats would do so. On the other hand, European Wildcats do seem to be solitary - I found this backed up by NatureScot and a few other sources, but I still wasn't able to find a primary source. I -was- able to find primary sources (first-hand accounts) for how notoriously difficult European Wildcats are to keep as pets, as they seem to be very fierce and untamable. If anyone else finds more research on this, feel free to add! I get fascinated by stuff like this.

[@madelinemaria4197]

the thing is my cat has the determination and drive to figure out how to unroll the entire roll of toilet paper no matter how I put it. So he's just banned from the bathroom lol

[@haleyrose9751]

Mine doesn't go for the TP. Instead she wants to jump in the clean bathtub, claw all over the window curtain, AND put her head or paws in the open toilet bowl water!!! So yeah same rule but for another plethora of reasons. It truly depends on your cat 😆🤦

[@ashtonvickers928]

Ultimate cross over the cat goes into grump grocery and starts wrecking the shelves

[@robbmitchell7846]

My cat doesn't like cat toys, or most gifts from humans so, I made sure to let him know that the cat bed I got him was for me lol I just kept it away from him for a bit and used it as a pillow, got it nice and set up so when I left the room, he'd be like "hahaha, foolish human, tiz mine now!" His favorite toy we got him was an over sized pipe cleaner from the hardware store lol We had to limit his playtime with it though because he was rubbing his chin/cheek raw. Dude's a nutcase, but I love him.

[@arshellnut2730]

The reverse psychology of the cat bed is genius.

[@ellatroy]

Haha it’s funny because it didn’t work because of reverse psychology-it was because your cat was most likely just copying you! Lol Cats are mimickers. They want to be involved with the stuff their favorite human is involved with. 😊
