[@talloncusack]

A cat only sleeps with you on your bed if and when they're extremely comfortable with you, meaning they're in docile/affectionate mode. It is absolutely not normal to wake up with scratches from them, lol. (I'm a lifelong cat person and one of my cats, my "familiar" has slept on my chest or my partner's chest every single night for over a decade- she is small for a full-grown cat btw, just like the one in the story!!!) Btw just because your cat doesn't sleep with/on you on your bed, doesn't mean they don't love you and aren't comfortable. Cats have different preferences and personalities. But when a cat does that, it does mean they are trusting you enough to be "vulnerable" that way- and that particular cat just enjoys cuddling and warmth and you've probably allowed them to cuddle up in your bed so the behavior becomes routine habit.

When I was little my aunt bought me a bear that would say stuff like “I’m your beary best friend” and “tell me your troubles.” And when I outgrew it it went into the closet. Then a year later the voice box broke and in the middle of the night it would start saying things again, more and more distorted as the battery wore out. Imagine from the other side of the door “tell me your troublesssss” and “did you have a nightmare? I have those sometimes too” and “it’s ok to be afraid of the darkkkkk” then finally the last one I got was “I love you, don’t leave meeee” before it finally went quiet. We found it again ten years later and my mom asked me if I wanted to replace the battery. We put one in but it just sounded like screaming static until we put it out again. Fucker went right to goodwill.

It would scare the stuffing outta me, but it’d make me mad too. Screw that troublemaking bear, screw Eric’s crappy mood and screw Eric.

I find it hard to understand how ppl ignore their pets when they act weirdly or defensive around an object, especially an old one. Dogs and cats have a sixth sense ppl, they can sniff out them demons. Even ancient Egypt knew this.

[@wintershafts5024]

My cat went to the vet and my other cat started hissing and growling at them. Made the cat who went to the vet sad because she was still sore from shots. My dad would bring fish home from his fishing trips and my cats would be super scared of the fish and start growling/hissing at them. (I don't think the fish are haunted). I once was cleaning the fans with the blue furry fan cleaners and when I showed it to my cat, she started hissing at it and saying awful cat profanities. (I don't think the fan cleaner is haunted although that would be nice) My point is: Cats are stupid and it depends on their personality and if they like certain things. On the point of cats sensing danger, I was out walking my cat when a car passed us. My cat got the bright idea of running onto the road to chase the car. He could've been ran over. I do not think that they can sense danger if they have never been exposed to danger (my cats are indoor cats all their lives). Another time, I was in the kitchen, cutting something, when my cat jumped on and tried to eat the knife on the blade side.

@@wintershafts5024 lol ok, my point was that animals can sense supernatural things, especially in my culture (Mexican), and most of the time they are right.

About a year into me living with my now husband he told me I had begun to sleep talk, and to my knowledge I have never done so, no roomate or family member has ever complained or said anything about it. What really freaked him out is it started with mumbling which he could fall back asleep after, but soon turned into me saying shit like “the people in the sky are watching us” or “why are the people in the ceiling looking at us” and my favorite one of all “Don’t go into the darkness [his name], it’s waiting for you” and he legit had to pee so bad he grabbed an empty water bottle from the trash and used that so he wouldn’t have to leave the room. The sleep talking has gotten better over the last year and was probably due to the stress of college and such since I graduated about a year ago but yeah I definitely creeped him the fuck out and he’s glad it’s basically stopped happening.

Feel free to ignore me lol I was around 12yo, on a sunday afternoon, when i fell asleep on a couch at my grandma's house. After what seemed like a literal 2 seconds of sleep i woke up to her in her wheelchair looking very concerned at me, unable to reach me since that room had a pretty tall step at the door and she didnt have her walker nearby. She saw me wake up and stretch and instantly, she relaxed. Right as I came to, i saw my mom walk in behind her as if she just called for her, reassuring meema that i "sometimes do that", nonchalantly. I didnt talk about it, but then there was also this one time when my family had gone out shopping without me. Again i blink, a few seconds pass and I just open my eyes, get out of bed, walk a few steps into the bathroom to pee... and then realize that what woke me up was my dad smashing in the window and shouting because i wouldnt open the door for them.
