I may have lost the battle, but I won the war.

That's the face of a proud father of 30.

Muffin probably knocked up a dozen cats, two dogs and Mrs Johnson’s lawn mower to warrant this public announcement.

[–] BigDanishGuy@sh.itjust.works 21 points 1 month ago

The lawnmower was collateral damage, but the resulting edge trimmers meowing for snacks are scary.

I'll never forget when the vet sterilized mine it was a rescued cat.
Vet:Alright the good news is that the surgery was successful but there afe more news...
Me:Oh... Erm go on
Vet:Turns out we tought he was younger by his size but he is way older than we tought maybe 7 years instead of 7 months. Turns out hes small by himself and malnourished. And also not virgin.
Me:Alright I'll bite how you know?
Vet:Well... The testicles darken with the time and gain wrinkles woth the use...
Me:And sooo....
Vet:He had toasted wallnuts...

If the vasectomy doesn't come with an announcement post like this I don't want it.

[–] mushroommunk@lemmy.today 22 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I'll pull you through the streets on a rickshaw announcing it

[–] Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 21 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Hear ye, hear ye! The new eunuch blesses you with his attendance.

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Meanwhile in the Ottoman court.

"The new eunuch is having you assassinated. Blessings."

Why does this read like a CK2 event?

[–] expatriado@lemmy.world 41 points 1 month ago (1 children)

"These poor fools think removing my testicles can diminish my power. Naive."

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago (2 children)

we had a stray on our street produce 17 kittens at the same time, from a mother and two of her kittens. that kind of havoc.

that was just at our neighbor's. who knows how many others he... sired? spawned? offsprung? around the neighborhood. we were trying very very hard to get all of them at least TNR'd. but we kept the cutest one for ourselves.

Let's just say I'm relieved he's sterilized

Operation Catsnip

[–] OrteilGenou@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

That's a typo, the cat is named "Muff In"

[–] ChicoSuave@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

They said it could be done but they finally caught that Muffin, man.

I have a tuxedo cat about that size.

[–] Trigger2_2000@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

You mean Operation CatSnip don't you?

[–] brianary@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Naming pets after food always seems like incredibly poor taste to me.

[–] ChaoticEntropy@feddit.uk 9 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Applesauce looks like an offender.

[–] Rhynoplaz@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

She really is. She's the queen of unprovoked attacks.

[–] ChaoticEntropy@feddit.uk 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

She has a history of violence...

[–] rustydrd@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

What an absolute unit, lol. Looks a bit like mine, also a Tuxedo that got the snippy-snap later in life with a distinctly unit-like look. (Though not as absolute as this one.)

[–] Bebopalouie@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

The least they could after that is buy him some Neuticles.

Edit the to they

[–] Pat_Riot@lemmy.today 3 points 1 month ago

Muffin isn't his real name. That's Tommy the Cat.

[–] otter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 1 month ago

I had no idea the Tuxedo breed was sired by this lone and prolific tom, Muffin.

Fascinating. 🖖🏼

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 2 points 1 month ago

That’s a big fucking cat. At least as big as my old cat Fat Bob.
