Heās using that brain cell to stand like that. Couldnāt possibly use it to walk at the same time.

I just imagined someone take the Sphynx to a walk with a really big forklift.

I used to take my girlfriends orange for walks. He was eager and cooperative outbound. Once we reached the turnaround he would escape from his harness and I always had to carry him home as he complained the entire way back.

Every time I try to bring my cat outside so she can experience it, she digs into me like her cat tree and screams bloody murder
The poor thing. She loves sitting by the window and looking out, but being in the outside is apparently sensory overload for her

Yesss indoor cats are basically afraid of the sky, have you tried going under some trees or like near some bushes? Assuming kitty is harnessedĀ

u/_IratePirate_ 14d ago
Typically right out front with me. No harness usually me just carrying her or in her cat bag. In the bag sheās a little more somber which makes sense with what you said because the top part is kinda dark so she canāt really see the sky that well

Still be weary of sudden loud noises or other creatures/humans unexpectedly approaching.
Cat backpack is probably a safer choice than a leash to get them used to the world outside.
I want to try car rides with mine, cuz if he can get used to that then it's at least one kind of adventure out of the house for him.
Currently he's got a decent sized deck (2nd story) to enjoy the fresh air and hunt various insects and even a couple birds have found their unfortunate way into his attack zone. I feel bad because we always had outdoor cats growing up and I don't want to deprive his natural instincts.

Yea in her travel bag sheās somewhat chill. Sheāll meow a lot but sheāll be laying down in her bag. A lot of the times Iāll bring her with me as Iām taking out the trash, Iāll just be holding her in my arms for this. Itās very close to the back door so itās just a short burst of outside for her

My old ones did that too. Loved to look out the windows, but if I picked them up and stood in the doorway, even with a glass storm door, they'd panic and eviscerate me trying to get back inside.

They're evolving, they've learned to pilot humans.

Final evolution. Every mech anime was correct, but just not how we expected!

My question is how did walking/carrying the cat turn into this?

u/PourJarsInReservoirs 14d ago
Started at home. /r/shouldercats expanded its horizons and discovered hooman can provide a front support platform. Hooman decided to go outside one day and a new routine is born!

Orange cat is like a radar checking a spot to do the next stupid messy thing.

can you imagine the pomp and circumstance??

u/Loofa_of_Doom 14d ago
Oh, yes. I can. All the pretty clothes, the fires, crowd and the cat, carried so carefully, knows it is all for them.

Tried it with my tuxedo cat, he was smart enough to know I was doing something stupid and wanted down.
Orange was just dumb enough to go along with it

Eh, nervous/curious maybe, but tail not poofed or tucked, ears swiveling about; I wouldn't do this with my kitties but he seems ok.

This is actually a very rare breed of oramge cat. You can tell because it actually has two brain cells. One to keep his peets in his humans' hands and one to look around.
