Hugging stranger’s cats is generally not advised.
@Thumperchick depending on their temperament, hugging your own cat may not be advisable either.
@Thumperchick My cats bite. Just a little though.
@medz That’s kisses.
And a handy how-to video!
What if the nearest person to me whom I know has cat a lives in Missouri?
@FroodyFrog it’s hug your cat day. If you don’t have a cat, it’s not your day.
@Thumperchick
Sighs
It’s never my day.
Story of my life.
@FroodyFrog it works out, though! You’re not really into holidays - or rather, gift giving holidays. irrc.
@FroodyFrog Hug a cat plushie instead.

(You do know that all the shirts are on sale again, right?)
@Thumperchick @narfcake
What if I pay someone to hug their cat for me?
@FroodyFrog You just wait until ‘hug your frog day’
Damn, Joey is not going to like this. Neither will Monica or Ron Howard. They’re not fond of hugging. Or even humans.
@lisaviolet This pretty much, then?

Good thing my cats can’t read. EVERY day is Hug Your Cat Day at my house! Whether they like it or not haha

@2many2no I still need to buy that shirt.
Dogs Rule. Cats Drool.

I was awoken this morning by the sound of one of my cats harking a giant hairball. I guess that was her way of celebrating this day.
As for hugging, we do that every day around here. They are furry and soft, how can I not ?

@narfcake Yep, that was about the size of it. She got a major grooming yesterday and I brushed off another cat’s worth of fur. Which, of course means she had to redo it all herself. I did give her some prophylactic hairball treats, but obviously not enough. I should brush her every day but

Just a dumb, boring video showing how fucking weird even my pets are.
He loves that tape roll. Yesterday he wore it for a solid ten minutes without letting it drop.
And this lovable idiot.
@jaremelz Adorbs! And Party Cat’s expressions were just priceless!
@narfcake In his mind, any attention is a good thing. He’s such a slut. Buy that tape roll really made him happy. Freaks.
So what’s the consensus? Am I allowed to rent a cat and pay someone to hug it for me?
@FroodyFrog Only if the cat & hugger already know each other
@compunaut
She should. The cat has owned her for numerous years.
@FroodyFrog Then I think you’re allowed.
Note: Our household has a similar ownership situation
You know how that works, @FroodyFrog.
Go ahead, rent the cat.
@narfcake
You’d think people would understand the concept of renting out their cat to someone, and then being paid to hug the cat.
@FroodyFrog Yeah, but it’s you were talking about – and understanding or misunderstanding is a whole other thing.

@narfcake
I dare you to find me 10 meh-mbers (because I know you could probably find a few easily) with whom I converse on a daily basis who find what I say confusing/hard to understand.
@FroodyFrog
@hallmike
Psst… I dared @narfcake. Don’t make it easy for him.
@FroodyFrog Herein lies the issue: how am I to speak on someone else’s behalf if they find you confusing or not? It’s not like I was really judging you on renting a cat or not, as such a service does exist. With you in New York, nothing’s too weird.
@narfcake
Go out and find them. If you want to make an accusation, then I’d like to see something to back it up.
Also, a UK website? Seriously?
Also, I choose to interpret that last sentence as a compliment.
@FroodyFrog What I’m rejecting is “accusation”, as I said “understanding or misunderstanding”. I’m not sure if there’s anything between those two, however.
(You know I’m not always serious here, especially at night. Likewise, that means I don’t always take other posts seriously all the time either. And text doesn’t always convey one way or the other.)
@narfcake
I know you’re not always serious.
My mind is so confused at this point, that it has no idea what’s happening.
I hug all three of my cats daily. They don’t bite my face off, so I guess they don’t mind too much.
Does hugging kittens count? Or does it have to be a full grown cat?
@abelcm You have to hug them twice to make up for the size.
Nicolai kitty left this world in 1997, but being as he was one of the rare non-asshole cats, we stood in front of his picture for a minute and thought fond thoughts.
That’ll do cat; that’ll do.
