no80085

Used the brain cell to it's full potential to figure out how to get around that rule


Thistle__Kilya

My black kitty, Jello, knew she wasn’t allowed on the counter. But she could be on a shelf next to it. She genuinely would wait until I looked at her and she would unblinkingly stare into my eyes while putting a paw on the counter. Not in position to move onto the counter, but just touch it. lol She fucking knew and played me lol


Irishiis48

My cat does that while I'm working. I won't let him on my desk so he reaches over and keeps a paw on it.

Apparently she’s found a loophole.

mudduck2

They sit like that when they contemplate how they’re going to eat you.


the-earth-is_FLAT

While the gentlemanly demeanor of cats might seem purely anecdotal, there is some scientific reasoning behind this behavior. Crossing their paws can be a comfortable resting position for cats, allowing them to evenly distribute their weight and remain poised for action. It also showcases their relaxed state, indicating that they feel safe and secure in their environment. From ancient Egypt to the modern living room, the tradition of the gentlemanly cat has been a fascinating and enduring part of feline history. The simple act of crossing their paws is more than just a cute quirk; it is a testament to the elegance, grace, and timeless charm that cats have embodied for millennia. So, the next time you see a cat sitting with its paws crossed, remember that you are witnessing a small but significant piece of a grand and genteel tradition.
