For anyone not so familiar with cat behavior, this cat is out of its mind excited to do this. It’s much more rare for cars to wag their tails but it means the same as it does when a dog does it. This cat is curious and proud and playing. It keeps looking at its owner too, like “LOOK AT ME, DAD” and it’s so rare to get videos of cats this happy. This is fucking rad
Nope.. wagging tails means anger or irritation in cat body language.
hey y’all, hope you don’t mind me stepping in!
you’re both right :) a wagging tail means the cat is highly stimulated (think coiled spring, ready to go off). depending on the situation, this can be interpreted differently - just like people can smile nervously at job interviews vs. happily grin at friends.
in most cases, it’s safe to interpret overstimulation as ‘you’re doing something to amp up the cat & it wants you to stop’ (ex. unwanted petting). it should be seen as a warning; all that pent-up energy COULD be released as a swat or bite.
BUT in this case, that tail-wagging ‘frustration’ is the stimulation that comes from problem-solving (where can I jump? is it safe to go here?) and the excitement of play. it’s good to be wary of ‘cute’ animals vids, but this seems like an unproblematic video!
I’d like to add to this–just look at world-famous box-loving cat, Maru, who wags his tail every time he stuffs his body into a box or other small object. He’s clearly not about to attack the person behind the camera! It’s definitely based on stimulation, but more to the point of “ahhh FINALLY I’ve gotten into the small space, now how do I get the rest of me inside”:
there are some dvds in the ditch at the end of my front lawn
could these be the missing batman films?
no, it’s superman 3 and 4
theyre both superman 3 and 4
the plot thickens
?
???
????????
i neglected to mention it in the original post, but the original dvd case i found only contained 1 dvd that included the films batman forever and batman and robin while the other 2 movies in the series batman and batman returns were missing
this morning i saw something in front of my neghbours house across the street from me
it was what looked like a dvd
again i thought
maybe its the missing batman films
or maybe its 3 dvds
oh
its 3 more copies of batman forever/batman and robin
great
WHO IS DOING THIS
no idea what this movie even fucking is
blu-ray this time? fancy.
what are these supposed to be
oh
well ive been meaning to see rogue one sometime
wonder if theyll still work
MY MOM IS BEING TARGETED TOO
so
i should probably be dating each update to this but i guess the original reblogs have their dates included
perhaps i could analyze the data and find a pattern
for now i have 2 more superman quadrilogies
interestingly enough inside one of the superman movie cases was actually 3 dvds
there was another copy of superman ¾
if you recall in a previous update i had already found 3 discs of superman ¾
the count has gone up to 6 superman ¾ discs while only just today finding 2 superman ½ discs
who owns these dvds all in bulk
why are they being separated only to be disposed of in pairs or threes in front of my house
im sorry this has been such an obscenely long post but i have a feeling its only going to get longer from here on out
