No. He didn't steal. He is a mighty hunter. Yes he is. Yes he is! He hunted down the mighty sausage beast, stalked it, and killed it all on his own. Yes he did! Yes he did! And he did murder while being so adorable! Yes he is. Yes he is!

That's a helluva tale for a neighbor that likely just gave him one

[–] WoodScientist@sh.itjust.works 32 points 1 month ago (1 children)

All cats believe in their hearts that they are mighty lions and tigers. Let them have this. :D

[–] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I mean, to any creature that weighs 3 pounds or less, he's right. If you're a field mouse a house cat is a terrifyingly effective predator.

More tuna are eaten by house cats than lions.

[–] WoodScientist@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Well, according to my cats, they get the tuna because they killed the tuna. They are the mighty hunters after all.

My cat just finds the nearest big idiot to yell at. That's usually me.

Honestly, if a cat was super interested in one of my bratwurst, I'd give them a present lol probably one I'd let cool for some time too, so it's not too hot for them.

I have a feeling this kitty made some friends, but wouldn't put it past them to snag it haha. My mom's cat used to take all the dog toys in the neighborhood and everyone knew just to come to the door to ask for them back lol

Edit: "if" not "of"

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I’d probably cut it in half or something. That’s one bigass meal.

[–] Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Also probably way more salt than a cat should really have, sausages are (usually) loaded with the stuff to not, y'know, kill you with bacteria.

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 month ago

and taste good, we need a whole lot more salt than cats do since we're so much bigger and sweat a bunch.

For some reason, I'm reading this in John Oliver's voice.

"Quick, let me in, they're right on my tail!"

[–] Aimeeloulm@feddit.uk 15 points 1 month ago (2 children)

You almost had me believing this unti I remembered he had a sausage in his mouth, so how could he talk :o/

[–] PrimeMinisterKeyes@leminal.space 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

The Garfield way, of course.

Garfield Minus Garfield is the best Garfield. CMM.

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

i'm very confused what the slash under the emote means, is it dabbing?

[–] btr_fan87@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Maybe the o is a nose and the slash is the mouth? Like how ":-)" uses three characters.

Yeah, no need to censor the word "asshole".

Calamari ass rings chef’s kiss

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 1 month ago

You know the chef is sending a message when your calamari includes the hunting hooks. 😵‍💫

[–] idiomaddict@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

A small cross section of a tube steak, obviously

[–] jaybone@lemmy.zip 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Hmm, not a single “no outdoor cats” comment in this whole thread (yet.)

That's what I said, but with more furor.

Abe Froman? The sausage king of Chicago?

[–] psx_crab@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 month ago

There's no collar on the cat, that's very likely.

In other word oop have good neighbour.

peak cat. Mine brings yukky mangled mice and birds.

[–] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 month ago

Well if you would just demonstrate that you know how to catch and kill your own, she could relax about trying to teach you.

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 1 month ago

You should send them to school with the orcas.

Then there's me like: Oh a cat. Here Kitty Kitty. You want a sausage? And there he goes. He's probably afraid of humans.

[–] kikutwo@lemmy.world 6 points 1 month ago

How was it?

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Now you just gotta teach him/her to team up with the local corvids. 🤌🏼

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 1 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

As a kid I had the genius idea of training magpies to steal stuff and bring it to me thinking it was the perfect crime; can't arrest a bird and the bird is who stole. But then I learned that is actually still illegal. 😔

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 1 month ago

Illegal =/= enforceable, FWIW.

[–] floo@retrolemmy.com 6 points 1 month ago

Good kitty!

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

So? How was it?

[–] cupcakezealot@piefed.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

it's polite to bring something to a potluck

[–] ErrorCode@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

Good kitty!

[–] driving_crooner@lemmy.eco.br 3 points 1 month ago

They also bring the carbon and salt(?)!
