We call it the same! We'd say "oh no we found a dead cockroach in the house" and then have people come worried and confused to an upside down cat

[–] orca@orcas.enjoying.yachts 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Lmao I love it.

“Oh no! Look!”

[–] SmackemWittadic@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Such a cute, comfy looking dead bug

In my house that’s called “the bowl is empty, feed me”

Backguette?

A pat trap. Reach into that and you'll see

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

Will do. I'll let you know how it goes.

Our car loves to get belly rubs in this position.. Sometimes he holds our arms tight to cuddle with them, but no trap whatsoever

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yeah you can get lucky sometimes. Cats have millisecond mood swings

[–] naeap@sopuli.xyz 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I can even give him kisses on his belly, cuddling my face into him

But to be honest, this was some time consuming way to get to this point ;⁠-⁠)

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

You have a very comfortable pet then. Congratulations

[–] naeap@sopuli.xyz 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Well, took us quite some time to get to this point

Sadly since now 4 months, we're fighting for his life. Don't know if he'll make it...

[–] Sam_Bass@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Don't give up

[–] naeap@sopuli.xyz 1 points 3 months ago

Thanks

I've pretty much left everything - couldn't even pay myself an income anymore, because I just carry for him (in the first 2 months I was cooking every 2 hours for him, and then I'll to 4 different things, so he would eat anything)

I love him with my whole heart and pretty much nothing, but other love/wife, is important to me.

So yeah, we keep fighting. But at the moment we are out of ideas and options, and just can wait...

my mom calls this "reindeer" since the legs positions resemble prancing reindeer in Christmas art

[–] 200ok@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

So cute!!
