    This is too real and why I’m nursing caffiene rn at 3pm. Fortunately it’s not plastic, just a geriatric little asshole with a long time sink obsession (dw he’s healthy, it’s behavioural, there’s clean water in several rooms).

      Switch to Double Edge Safety razors. The blades are like 10¢ or so. As a DE (Double Edge) Wetshaver since my military days (2008) I can never and have never done plastic disposables since. Game changer. And Gillette made 'em so you can eBay a Vintage 1960’s Adjustable for not a lotta scratch.

    As a relatively new cat owner, why the fuck does she like to eat plastic? If she finds something with packing tape on it the little dumbass will literally peel it off and eat it. I don’t get it. That can’t possibly taste good.

        It’s like I say to my brother, she’s a huge pain in the ass at times and her saving grace is that she’s absolutely adorable. If she wasn’t so cute she’d be out on the streets lmao. She’s a talkative little cat and chirps and meows constantly, it’s so cute.

          Mine constantly picks at the carpet. She’ll be 2 cm away from the scratching post that I bought her and still do it. The other cat that I have the instant I put the scratching post down he instantly went over and started using it and doesn’t scratch at the carpet at all.

          However he takes up the whole bed at night, and pushes me out.

          They are both irritating in their individual ways.

      I wish I knew the answer to this. I can’t leave the thick plastic target-style shopping bags sitting out exposed anywhere my cat can find it otherwise the handles will “mysteriously” turn into Swiss cheese within a day.

        I accidentally left out some plastic garbage in my room the other night, and I have insomnia so falling asleep and getting enough sleep is hard for me. I was just about to fall asleep and the cat started chewing on the plastic. I was so mad. She’s lucky she’s adorable as hell lol.

      Some plastic has fish oil in it, or at least that’s the explanation I heard.

    I always let my dog lick the takeout containers and paper plates and toss it out when they were done. This way they wouldn’t make a huge mess to do it lol. They loved Chipotle bowls the most.

        1. No. Please.
        2. Why does USAToday need to cite the FBI to define “LARP”? : Emily Lazar posted on X how she needed "answers" and questioned whether Hello Kitty has been "Larping this whole time?" Larping is when "participants portray characters in an imaginary environment and interact with one another in real-time," according to the FBI.

          That’s also like the worst description of larping I’ve ever heard. I also like the “in real time” bit. Suggesting the possibility of turn-based social interactions.

    I usually have a plastic grocery bag on the floor near my bed and the cats like to come in at like 2am and mess with it loud enough to wake me up, only to find 2-3 of them just sitting there licking it. Not even eating it, just licking .

    It’s the other way around for me. Opens bag of chips. Cat hears plastic bag. Cat “that food is for me 👀”

      I was downstairs and felt sick, but I was in the kitchen with a laminate floor so I ran upstairs so I can throw up on your bed.

      Oh and when I’m done I want to be fed.

    “Who found a new way into the trash?”

    Doesn’t matter what I do, someone is finding a way in there to see if there’s anything left in a food can.

      I have to put my trashcan in the closet or a closed bathroom. Cats for sure.

        That’s the bad(and good) part with my lot. So damn intelligent and persistent, they figure out a way.

        I’ve been tempted to move to child locks, but I’m half scared that by the time they’ve fully grown, they’ll have figured out how to manipulate those. I know at least one has figured out how to unzip my backpack, flush the toilet, and turn on faucets. She’s almost gotten down how to turn doorknobs by dangling.

          Mine likes to pull open drawers, hoike out all of the clothes, and then sit in the drawer looking smug at the mess he’s made.

          Child locks are the way to go. I use the ones that lock cabinets. With 18 cats

          At a certain point the most dignified thing to do is admit defeat and acquiesce. They have a level of time and resources unfathomable to most adult humans.
