I remember reading about a study where scientists just set up hamster wheels in the woods with cameras watching them. Turns out even wild rodents love them. The number two most common users: leopard slugs.

The scientific term is "splooting" :science:

Incorrect. Sploot is a regionalism. Frogging is academic jargon.

That's how my dogs get their symparica. It's a special treat. They have to sit and it's the reward. They give me looks after like "I'm not sure that was worth it" but they do it every month.

We used to dip the pills in barbecue sauce.

i never really appreciated how loud tiny birds can be until a mockingbird chose to take up residence outside my bedroom window one year

Yeppppp. Had one once that I'm pretty sure was imitating my alarm clock. That, or it's how my still-dreaming brain interpreted its noises.

Thank you.

I understood that he was a potential new species but figured he probably wasn't, like, a completely new category of fish.

I know the whole 'personality doesn't REALLY correlate to fur color' thing blah blah but nobody can convince me that black cats aren't just as collectively dumb as oranges, but oranges are dumb in a "i can't figure this out and it annoys me :mad:" kind of way where black ones are more "hello, my head is empty, love me".

Years ago, my roommate's black cat would sit on my lap while I played computer games. If I stopped petting him, he'd whap keys.

He'd also open my desk drawers, take stuff out, and leave it in my roommate's purse.

Dogs do this too, I've heard it just called "splitting" but I don't know if that's a technical term. When my dog Badger was a puppy, we took her to a puppy socialization class with 8 or so other puppies all around 8 weeks old, where the teacher brought her like 3-4 year old border collie as a babysitter. It was always fascinating to watch, because the collie would just lay on the periphery of the play area and watch the puppies, and seemed to know exactly when a little wrestling match or snarly tiff got a little too rough, because she'd just pop and gently split the puppies until they got distracted with something else.

All dogs are good, but well-trained and socialized border collies with jobs are spooky.

I'm confused as to why it works at all.

I think it's less tricking her than protecting the hand if she decides it's not kitten taking time. Or maybe there's something about a grasping hand that causes an instinctual response, possibly through resemblance to closing jaws.

Presumably if it were uncomfortable, he'd move.
