It’s also one of those basic urges like eating and sleeping. Can those really be overrated?

I think the difference is that eating and sleeping are kind of required for living.

Yeah. But sexual reproduction is required for the continuation of the species, so it shouldn’t be any surprise that our biology encourages it so highly.

Ace Ventura sucks.

Also, IIRC studies show that sex is good for well-being. It's like how sad/lonely people tend to be less healthy or how relatively healthy senior folks often take a drastic turn for the worse if they lose their spouse.

Dumb and Dumber is and always was a better jim carrey movie than either one and was the peak of his weird+mostly terrible career and the sequels they made were offensive attempts to ruin its legacy. Especially the "prequel" one.

Anyway I'm not going to pretend like I didn't think the second ace ventura was really funny at the time/age I was when I watched it just because of how it is viewed now, though.

Yes, they are cute, but all I can think about is "Hey! Cats like to leap and climb and tear poo poo up! What if we bred these two cats with hosed up legs that can't do that? And what if we gave these cats all sorts of other health problems too??!?!?"

I also get sad at scrotum cats, but less so. At least they can do normal cat poo poo.

I think breeding pets should be illegal without a license and spay/neuter should be mandatory without one. Yeah puppies and kittens are super cute but people are treating their pets as baby factories to make money and that shouldn't be allowed. You should need a valid reason that is not "making money" to let your pets breed.

Does anyone have a ballpark of how much it would cost to make spay/neutering free and subsidized? I can't imagine it wouldn't save money in the long run.

I also tend towards making "outside cats" in cities fineable but that would be insane to enforce. But they shouldn't be a thing. It's bad for the cats and bad for wildlife.

Outside cats should be employed in killing barn vermin or whatever, purebred dogs should be bred like they originally were, for function, not for insane kennel club beauty standards.

Agreed 100% on outside cats. People always act super indignant when you suggest they not let their cat out and say "but he WANTS out, i don't support animal abuse". For one thing, animals don't really "want" things, they do things their instincts tell them to do. Part of having a pet is training them to not follow certain instincts. If you just let your pets do what they want they'd be making GBS threads inside, eating trash and our children all the time and being, well, a wild animal.

e: and yeah there should be exceptions like you said, if it's doing a job then fine, but don't give me some bullshit about how it's torturing the cat to not let it go outside and piss on some trees and murder a bunch of birds.

Barn cats being exempted from these ridiculous rules you guys have for animals needs to stop. Barn cats are hellspawn that only exist to bring ruination upon all living things they see. They're only kept around as "pest killers" because the loving assholes haven't figured out how to eat cows and horses on the hoof.

If you don't believe in outdoor cats, fine. I want to agree. But stop your bullshit if you think barn cats are "working" or what the gently caress ever.

Edit: I want to be perfectly clear. Pets are cool, but I think keeping cats is gross and probably stupid as gently caress if you don't have pests. They're wild animals. Don't believe me, set Furball loose for two days, they'll still be fat when you come home. Cats are not pets. They're generations deep in "Kill things for food and shelter" but they still loving hate you. They will eat your flesh and find it fulfilling. Stray cats are more vermin than what they hunt.

Are they not killing things that could potentially harm your livestock or crops, aka the things your livelihood depends on? That is serving a working purpose. Should we get rid of livestock guardian dogs too because they aren't "working" by whatever weird definition you are operating under?

They're killing everything, it's great. They also don't get fixed and are treated as working livestock by farmers. That means generations of barn cats that roam for miles and kill every loving thing. And it turns out not all farms are as rural as you think.

All I'm saying is stop exempting barn cats in your "Rules For Cat Having" book. They're evil and as unregistered and free roaming as any other stray.

Indoor cats are functionally permanent kittens and can't be trusted to kill anything. They're not generations deep in any useful hunting instinct.

I agree ideally the cats should be confined to the farm, but that's difficult to do practically. I also don't like cats so don't think I'm some cat person, I'm just saying they serve a purpose in a farm even if there are negative side effects for the surrounding areas. Random Cat Lady letting their cat out in their inner city apartment is objectively worse because the cat being outside is serving absolutely no benefit, only contributing to the negative results that an un-fixed stray cat has.

In all cases, just fix your cats people. We have plenty.

Oh good it’s the “cats will eat your face the moment you stop breathing” brigade. Thank god, I hadn’t seen any of you in like three days so I was starting to get worried.

Psst dogs do that too. Also a hamster made a nest in a dead person once, that was weird.

Cat's were "domesticated" in ancient Egypt, a gift to humanity from the goddesses Bast and Sekhmet. They provided security to the granaries of the Pharaohs.

Since then things maybe have gone downhill, but don't forget where cats came from. :nyd:

There’s actually a decent case to be made (and by your use of quotes I’m guessing you’re inclined to agree) that the nature of our mutually beneficial arrangement and the fact that we never bred cats the way we did dog means that cats were never really truly domesticated.

I don't disagree with you. You're arguing with the wrong person. Your cat totally hates you though, if it's in a barn.
