The "I don't want to talk about AI" thread, and the new topic is: we seem to be back to cats

[Bramblethorn]

Human skills needed for cat having:

Perception for spotting covert plastic eating.

Also for hearing incipient vomiting. Especially under the bed.

Dex for catching vomit. (My husband dove across the room with his hand out the other day and caught a hairball with masterful precision. I still haven't let him touch me. He hasn't washed it nearly enough.)

Been there, done that. Ew.

I've learned to grab the nearest piece of paper to catch the puke.

I've learned to grab the nearest piece of paper to catch the puke.

Nearest paper is usually in the printer and her vomit is much quicker than we can retrieve it from the tray. Yesterday my husband threw his sweatshirt under her to catch it. She turned to vomit on the tile, got upset, then ran under the bed to finish.

My girl is currently entranced by leaves falling onto our balcony.
