exp(x) Posted April 22, 2007 Meh, that doesn't really fit either of my cats. In fact, one of them loves to be vacuumed with the hose attachment. 0 Share this post Link to post

Kristian Ronge Posted April 22, 2007 That whole site looks like a remnant of 1996. On topic, it's a rather banal drawing/joke, but it's good for a chuckle. 0 Share this post Link to post
Little Faith Posted April 22, 2007 These kinds of brain jokes are tiresome and unfunny, no matter who or what the subject might be. 0 Share this post Link to post
Gokuma Posted April 22, 2007 One of my cats simply doesn't care about the vacuum, because she's deaf. 0 Share this post Link to post
GGG Posted April 22, 2007 Does this website have permission to post that image? I don't see permission stated and I know the artist of that cartoon. 0 Share this post Link to post
Sharessa Posted April 23, 2007 Heh, kind of dumb, except for that "obsession with imaginary insects" one. WTF is with that anyway? <3 cats Gokuma said:One of my cats simply doesn't care about the vacuum, because she's deaf. Is she white with blue eyes? 0 Share this post Link to post

Sharessa Posted April 23, 2007 Yep, it's an odd fact that most white cats with blue eyes are deaf (like 90% of them), and white cats with only one blue eye will just be deaf in that ear. 0 Share this post Link to post
Quasar Posted April 23, 2007 The traits are genetically linked :P Kind of like how normal calico cats can only be female. 0 Share this post Link to post

I wouldn't say 90 percent - but my knowledge is limited to sealpoint birmans. Alpaca's are affected by the same genetic problem - my parents have two deaf cria with blue eyes (otherwise known as albino alpacas). 0 Share this post Link to post

My cat does this, she just paws at the floor and jumps in the spot as if being entertained by a ghost cockroach I can't see. I think she's just catching her reflection on the kitchen floor. 0 Share this post Link to post
Little Faith Posted April 24, 2007 It could also just be an imaginary prey animal. Who are we to say whether cats have or have not got an imagination? 0 Share this post Link to post
Inferno Posted April 24, 2007 It's probably from a reflection on the floor. But theres no doubt that cats have their own personality. Same applies with dogs. 0 Share this post Link to post
Steeveeo Posted April 24, 2007 No doubt that this pic is kinda funny (and most of it true) but if you were "literally ROFLing" as you said, you must be on somtm... But yes, cats are weird....not only that but they are the root of all evil, for they are Maniacle Maniacs.....ever seen the movie Cats vs Dogs? Cats lost, dogs won, how true...XP 0 Share this post Link to post

My dog does that. Then he charges the vacuum. Then he runs. Then he charges it. Then he runs. Then he charges it. Then he alternates between barking and whining at it. Then he runs away and hides. I didn't really find myself laughing at the picture, but I did crack a smile. 0 Share this post Link to post
Kirby Posted April 25, 2007 Man, I've seen seen thiss SO many times before. I thought it was funny the first few times, especially since it seemed to emulate my cat. Then it got old since I was trying to find actual scientific information on the cat brain for a research project yet the only thing I could find in google was this damn picture. My cat alos deosn't simply chase the "imaginary insects". She literally goes into spastic mode, running full speed across the house while clawing at the floor and simultaneously sliding on it for a few inches. It gets really amusing just watching it for a few minutes EDIT: Heh, and on a similar note 0 Share this post Link to post
Erp Posted April 25, 2007 I really don't have anything against cats or their owners, I'm just very allergic to them; been in the hospital twice for just petting one. Kittens are irresistable. Allergy shots don't seem to help. I do wish the local cats would stop leaving muddy paw prints on the hood of my truck, why do they do that? 0 Share this post Link to post
Planky Posted April 25, 2007 Most likely because it is warm. Quite often I find cats on the hood after I've been driving. 0 Share this post Link to post

Yeah, and when light reflects off her eyes in the dark they appear red. Definitely albino. 0 Share this post Link to post
