    You can also call anything you want a cat, so long as no one else sees it to tell you otherwise.

    I’ve adopted 12 winged cats this way. The last person I had over tried telling me “those are vultures, they’re disgusting wild animals, why is there vomit everywhere?!”, but I know the truth. They’re weird cats, and just like any other, they puke.

      Vultures are supposedly birds, and birds aren’t real, therefore the only logical conclusion is that those “vultures” are actually winged cats.

    But can I take them home? What if they have a collar with a name tag that has my neighbor’s address on it? Or what if they’re wearing a leash being held by a person who won’t stop saying “Please put my cat back down”?

      Take every cat you see home. As for those scenarios:

      1. Your neighbor is trying to trick you so they can have the cat for themselves, don’t fall for it. Take the cat home.
      2. Those weirdos that attached themselves to the cat clearly don’t understand what’s happening, take the cat home

        1. An unsupervised cat outside can be detrimental to the environment

        2. An unsupervised cat outside could get gravely injured/killed by vehicles or pos human beings or pos human beings in vehicles or wild animals or drown in sewers or drown in open bodies of water or eat something poisonous or pick up a disease that might be deadly/hard to fight

    It’s absolutely not legal Miku. Please all of you don’t do that.

        Cuddles maybe. Some homeless people care about their cats more than their own life. The nerve some people have to rob them of their cats… I’ve seen it happen recently. I knew the guy, called him. He recognized his cat. The young couple said the cat would be better off with them than with a hobo. Needless to say, we “retrieved” the cat.

        So no Miku, don’t do that.

    Yeah, maybe develop a rapport with them, like feed them for a few days.

    Some ferals around here are pretty cynical of humans… or anyone.

      Cats are really big on consent. As a dog person this is unusual to me. Dogs are sluts for everyone. I can basically go and touch almost any dog I see out in public and it appreciates me for it.

      Man … If you touch a nice lil kitty they can get real nasty. Even if they appear friendly and affectionate at first they can just slap your hand with their nails right outta nowhere.

    That cat is an ambulatory buzzsaw with a superiority complex. Approach at your own risk.
