Do you truly understand farts?

[–] naticus@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago

I understand they are and always will be hilarious.

As i recall, cats partially communicate through scent, so in my mind right now a fart would be like someone's Tourette syndrome expressing itself through sign language.

Brand new sentence

I've had a farting cat, he didn't seem annoyed, amused, or whatever by his own farts. And it stank. Now he's okay, he doesn't fart anymore.

I often fart on my cats, they only care if it's really loud. So most of the time they don't care at all. That's sad.

The farting cat helps a lot

[–] PancakesCantKillMe@lemmy.world 24 points 3 days ago

No. We have a newer orange cat that was doing some self care in the middle of the room. Just as he flexed down to begin, he squeaked out a tiny fart. It was audible and he only reacted when we did. That shit was funny.

When my partner and I first got our kittens, they were just a couple weeks old. We were sitting on the floor of their room and they were shambling around adorably. I tooted on the hardwood floor LOUDLY and it vibrated the room, and both of them jumped up into the air, all paws leaving the floor. It was hilarious.
