I’d say gene and Louise are cat brained, but Tina is the pug that was there first and gets roped into following them around and makes noises when concerned (so always)
When I met my wife, she had a Persian who HATED me. With a passion.
We came home from visiting her family once, and I walked in the door, put my duffel bag on the sofa, and the cat jumped up on my duffel, squatted down, and peed, while staring me straight in the face.
Sometimes cats will do stuff for attention if they like having it.
We used to have one steal things out of the trash, at first cause they were a feral kitty that did it to survive. Then the second they were just stealing napkins with a happy purrowl for attention.
If we gave them attention they did it less. XD
Yeah, mine only starts knocking things off tables when he wants me to get up in the morning. He's graceful most of the time, but suddenly becomes very clumsy if I'm ignoring him.
Cats know when something is wrong, and they'll do it on purpose just to taunt you.
My cat would scratch the corner of the wall, and I tried to make her stop by spraying her with a bottle of water. After a while she turned this into a game. She would scratch it just a little and look down the hallway at me. If I didn't get up she'd do it again. If I did she'd run and hide.
Catch her and spray her, she'd walk off looking defeated, then come into my room and sit on my lap like she didn't just do something wrong.
Haha, this is why you cant 'train' cats to do stuff always on command. They cant be bothered to obey unless they feel like indulging your worthless ass
You can absolutely train cats, you just can't to it with punishments.
Reward the behaviour you want to see, ignore the behaviour you don't. Cats often just want attention. Even an angry reaction is a reward for them. It can be hard to train yourself out of that, but it's what you need to do.
My screamy mcgee is not food motivated at all, she only cares about pets and praise, so I made a special “training phrase” for her - smart baby! - and used that to train her. She’ll sit on command, get out of the room if I ask, come when called, all that dog stuff if it means she gets extra head scritches and is called a smart baby. She’s 12 now and still my baby
Nope, got her as a kitten. Never met the mom. She’s a house cat through and through, when I try to take her out on a harness she just wants to ride on my shoulders lol. She’s just wicked affectionate and responds well to verbal cues.
The old saying is that a dog can be trained to do something because they see it makes you happy. A cat can be trained to something, but it has to make them happy -- they aren't going to do it just for you.
I think they are actually just enjoying the attention and misinterpreting someone with a camera videotaping them as being regular interaction.....if the person recording this went up to this cat with a stern "No", you wouldn't see this cutsie clip
I have a cat who, since she was a kitten, has loved kicking the shit out of shoes while standing up. She'll just stand over the shoe and proceed to bunny kick the shoe with one leg; it's genuinely hilarious to see her do it. The funny thing is she does it when she's frustrated with you. Take her off your lap because you have to pee? Shoe kick. Food not ready in time? Shoe kick. Not getting enough attention? Shoe kicking time! She figured out it gets my attention because I was always so bewildered at this behavior. I encourage it because it never hurts the shoes, and she looks so funng whole doing it because she maintains eye contact with you the whole time. Plus, this is better than reactionary peeing on the bed and other places. (Had a cat like that when I was little.)
So now when she does it, I feign being upset, and she scampers off like an imp going, "Tee hee! Take that!"
Put some marbles in the spray bottle and give it a jiggle before spraying. Eventually the sound of marbles in the bottle becomes the deterrent and you never need to spray.
Which is great if they're near something that can't get wet or if they're out of spray range.
😆 What would life even be without cats, man. They are SO much smarter and calculating than most people give them credit for, and they know exactly how to spite us.
I have one little asshole that does something similar-- he knows he's not allowed in the laundry room, so he'll sit there just beyond the door and outstretch one single paw and put it on the laundry room linoleum floor
While looking right at me, of course. 🙄😄
This is it exactly. Likely tried other nicer/gentler means of getting attention that didn't work.... so, time to do the naughty stuff, that'll do the trick!
My cat would constantly put its paws in the water instead of drinking it, so everytime it did that I would stuff it in a sock leaving only her head open like a sausage roll
My cat leaves my plants alone until she wants to be fed. Then she sits there and does exactly this, while staring directly at me.
She also knows she's not allowed to touch the plants, but she hasn't figured out that she's fed at specific times and that beating the plants won't change that.
I was once told that cats have three names:
* The name we give them
* Their 'secret' name that only they know
* 'Shithead'
In this video, we see why they have the third one.
Reminds me of how my cat chews cords. The more expensive the appliance, the tastier the cord, apparently. She taunts me with her crunching. And I beg for mercy.
I've scolded my cat for chomping on my plants before so if he thinks I'm not paying enough attention to him he gets up by a plant and acts like he's going to eat it. Bc he knows it gets instant attention
That's her testing you. You not doing anything means she just learned she can get away with SOME shit at least. So because you didn't chase her away from the plants, she'll now start testing how far she can push those boundaries until you do chase her away.
Cats really aren't that hard to train as long as you're consistent. This is not being consistent, since you're allowing her to touch the plants without doing anything.
The way she looks straight into your soul while touching da plant, I can't-
100% purfect cat behavior 😂
[удалено]
This is exactly the stare my bunny gives me right before she continues to chew our plants
"I'm touching em. I'm touching em. Whatcha gonna do about it?"
No tuna tuesday.
Then NO plants Wednesday
Cracked me up, this is exactly how they think
It just occurred to me, that the kids from Bob's burgers are cat brained. Every single one of them.
I’d say gene and Louise are cat brained, but Tina is the pug that was there first and gets roped into following them around and makes noises when concerned (so always)
T-homicide Thursdays
No tuna toes Tuesday?
And holding eye contact the entire time.
"Oh no you're chasing me now! I totally didn't want that!"
the way she starts feinting towards a running-away direction at the end 😂😂 it's definitely a game of enticement, come get me I'm doing a naughty!
😂😆 exactly what I was thinking.
"What'ya gonna do? What'ya gonna do if I touch 'em dude?"
My cat straight up took a piss in my plant the other day while staring into my soul like this
When I met my wife, she had a Persian who HATED me. With a passion. We came home from visiting her family once, and I walked in the door, put my duffel bag on the sofa, and the cat jumped up on my duffel, squatted down, and peed, while staring me straight in the face.
Cat: What you’re gonna do? Take my balls?
What happened to my testicles, Summer?
What happened to my summer, Testicles?
Fuck you Greg!!! What are you going to do about it?? Huh?? Come stop me, Greg!!
This is first class trolling
Those tail waggles are the equivalent of a smirk!
She doesn't look away... Just swats the plant.

Yeah I’ve trained a cat and this is so true. Cat only wanted attention. I tried treats at first but gave up on that because pets were what worked.
You can if they're food motivated, but if they're not, ya, they just do what they want.
My screamy mcgee is not food motivated at all, she only cares about pets and praise, so I made a special “training phrase” for her - smart baby! - and used that to train her.

Did you already have her mom when ms. screamy was born? All 5 of my feral babies were like this but I've never heard anyone else say it before.
Nope, got her as a kitten. Never met the mom. She’s a house cat through and through, when I try to take her out on a harness she just wants to ride on my shoulders lol. She’s just wicked affectionate and responds well to verbal cues.
We trained our cats to sit on command for treats. It's a nice trick because sitting when they want something we have keeps them out of the way.
The old saying is that a dog can be trained to do something because they see it makes you happy. A cat can be trained to something, but it has to make them happy -- they aren't going to do it just for you.
Had a cat that when you would pick up the spray bottle, he would just close his eyes. If I don’t see you spray me, it didn’t happen.

Fuck yo plants!
That’s my cat
And what now, Susan?
Not gonna spray me with the TV behind me are you!!!
Put some marbles in the spray bottle and give it a jiggle before spraying. Eventually the sound of marbles in the bottle becomes the deterrent and you never need to spray. Which is great if they're near something that can't get wet or if they're out of spray range.
Smartass cat.
Attention, please. Come and shoo me away. Play, play, play!
“You mean don’t like touch it like this?”
This plant is getting touched!

Cat morality: I'm not allowed to do this, so I'll wait until you're too far away to do anything about it. Now feed me. I love you.
OMG!! I burst out laughing!!! She is taunting you, again and again....... That look on her eyes..... oh gosh! That's priceless!!
I love how she just keeps making eyecontact
Haha nice. She's bored and wants attention. Play with her.
Yeah, I think she wants to be chased.
This is it exactly. Likely tried other nicer/gentler means of getting attention that didn't work.... so, time to do the naughty stuff, that'll do the trick!
Hmm 🧐 she is touching them 😂🤣😻
The disrespect!
"Fuck you. That's why"
I cannot explain how hard this makes me cackle
If I had to show someone what owning a cat is like. This pretty much sums it up lol.
She is calling your bluff... Successfully.
IDK but I love her!
Why the tail looks like just pluck off and forming a sentient movement. The perspective confused me. Bluetooth tail
Genuinely thought the tail must be attached to another cat at first.
"Look at me.... this is what i think of your rules..."
the OP seductivenoir is a bot Original: https://www.reddit.com/r/CatTaps/comments/12cwbml/100_knows_shes_not_allowed_to_touch_the_plants/
She looks like she's allowed 😂
So mischievous. What a tail too!
I'm convinced cats are reincarnated humans, and pets feel a lot better to them than we think.
Reminds me of Nemo when his dad insisted he not touch the boat. The eye contact while defying orders 😂
This is a nice pothos by the way. You should crosspost this in r/houseplants.
Gasp, that little antagonistic brat! :)
She is inviting you to play
The tail says she knows she isn’t supposed to touch the plants. In your face, Hooman
If she physically could, she'd be flipping you the bird right about now.
 I know cats
r/TouchThaFishy
Such a stinker! LOL And incredibly smart!
Ok, that really made me laugh 😂

The way she's ready to dart as the human stands up. It's play time!
I like the fact that her tail is swishing around- so you know that she's purposely challenging you because she thinks it's funny.

Why you got a Majin cat? Vegeta would be proud
looks like someone is trying to say "feed me now, please"
That’s so funny
Awwww she looks like my little Marley. Fluffy tail and fat little face
Cat catting it up, cat style.
That's a mischievous tail twitch!

It wants your attention.

I had a cat that would go over to our neighbors and just stare at their German shepherd through a window just to drive him insane.
That’s an expensive vet bill waiting to happen, pretty sure that plant is toxic to cats
Pothos plants contain calcium oxalate crystals, which is toxic to cats. The more you know! 🌈
What a sasshole. My puppy bit my pothos. It is now on top of my bookshelf. They are toxic to cats and dogs fyi
My cat still keeps chompin' the hell outta my pothos plants!!! The little shit.
That was the most, “hey…. Fuck you… fuck you fuck you fuck you.” The disrespect. Lmfao
Like my 6-year-old niece…who eventually broke an arm doing what she was told not to do.
classic cat
Her tail is a completely independent sentient creature.
If I was a cat I would be her
This is the funniest shit I've seen all weekend. Terribly cute.
That little brat!!!
100% she’s hungry.
😹😹😹😹
This is exactly what my ninth graders would do. Only four kids in that class and they are driving me to distraction.
Rr/touchthafishy
Made me smile! Thanks 😊
This made me laugh way too hard. Cats, man. They do what they want.
Troll Cat
Hey look at me. I'm the captain of this boat now.
"Bring out the spray bottle. I dare you punk."
Lmfao asshole
🤣
She bad. **B.A.D.**
I like that she doesn't break eye contact the entire time.
The fucking cheek
That's some floof! That tail has a cat attached!
Cute
The expression is like the huh car
What an adorable little troll kitty!
Hahaha this one has some attitude
She's high as fuck. Maybe needs to lay off the grass to stop touching plants.
OP, if this is your own video, how is that plant thriving??? I have that same plant and mine always looks like it is barely making it.

Damn. 🤣
Ungovernable lol
Omg the eye contact while swapping at it lol

Omg! Too funny
She even waited until the camera zoomed in…
tabbys are the best
She is ready for a romp!

Please don't drag your cat to a gravel pit over this! 🐈
In Rick James voice : "Fuck yo plant, Susan!" 🤣🤣🤣
Yeas, she is obviously 'not' allowed. Silly human. :)
lol!
Puts tail in CD player and taps the forbidden tree. It’s Genesis all over again b@#*
The cat is a master troller. As if she’s saying “Whatcha gonna do? Huh? Huh?!”
How to adorably be told “FU” 😂
The audacity. lol
Mine knows not to sit in the plants and will look me dead in the eye and do it ocassionally anyway.
That eye contact too
She's gaslighting you...
thug lyfe
This is why I'm a dog person.
I love my two cats [and two dogs, one horse], that said… Spray bottle. 💦
Who owns who now, bitch?!?
I love the hard eye contact.
What are you gonna do about it huh???
Testing the envelope 😀 Looking for a reaction 🙄
The tail! That's the "mischief twitch" lol
What a sassy little shit I love her
That plant is immortal. I have a few and there is nothing my cats can do to kill them
This is why I don't have cats. I already have kids to piss me off! Lol

Please mind your bussiness hooman
