A Brave New World describes pretty well the self imposed glass prison the human race will end up with if the general apathy so pervasive now continues. Panem et circenses

HOW is that comfortable?!

So sweet! Please tighten that collar though! Needs to be snug enough that you can fit 2 fingers underneath it.

That’s some Quality vampire scrunge

We make jokes that he’s scared of his brother Thor 😹

One of our cats is called Loki. He’s scared of thunder.

I’ve been raw feeding for over decade. The health of my cats massively improved. The ones that have been raw fed right from the get go are the healthiest I’ve ever been owned by. One of my cats, the vet said was the “most beautiful specimen he’s ever seen” (yes he used that terminology lol and all my cats are just mutty rescues) and said he was incredibly healthy.

I’ve gotten more food poisoning from supermarket food than I ever have off raw cat food, which is to say never in that time. We use a high quality local business that specialises solely in raw feeding.

With regards to research, just bear in mind that the pet food industry is a multi-billion dollar industry with vested interests in maintaining the status quo. There’s also plenty of evidence to show that, as an industry, there’s a lot of dodgy stuff going on and that its causing huge health issues for pets, including deaths. I believe there’s been several documentaries on it but I haven’t looked this info up in many years.

I’ll edit this with some studies once I’m on my PC and not my phone because it’s annoying to do with a phone keyboard.

What others have said. With regards to diet and drinking - look into raw feeding.

What is with all the depressing shit posted on Mildly Interesting lately?! This isn’t mildly interesting, its c/OrphanCrushingMachine

Fun fact, humans can get a mild high off catnip too. It was what I used as a young teen with an overbearing abusive parent.

This isn’t mildly interesting or even mildly sad, it’s a lot sad 🌳😭

Oh please gods yes. Advertising is violence and even though most of my life is now ad free, I still can’t avoid the advertising scourge being shoved into my eyeballs every time I leave my house. It would be a blessed weight lifted from my already tired brain to never see a single ad again.

Damn, some months ago I came across a void for adoption that had very unusual white flecks on its body. Now I’m even more sad I didn’t adopt him 😿

You joke but a (NZer) family member on an overseas holiday got into an argument with a local over the existence of NZ. Family member, being a tourist, was asked where they were from and said New Zealand. Nothing strange there. Local said that NZ was a state in Australia. Confidently incorrect. When my family member tried to correct them, they argued they were right and the person who was from the actual country was utterly wrong 🤦‍♀️

Hello from another Loki variant!

Bold of you to assume many people know better.

Our cats have always been fed raw and they get fed twice a day. One of our cats, the vet said he was “the most beautiful specimen I ever seen”. He’s just a basic tabby (rescue) but does indeed have the most glorious fur. Our failed foster’s pervious owner fed her an expensive fancy diet but kibble and we thought she had coarse fur. After months with us on raw, she also has gloriously soft fur and what we thought was psychological urination issues also cleared up.

Those are some impressive void murder mittens 🙀
