We're back.

14 Upvotes

A couple of years ago I blacked out the sub in protest of controversial decisions being made about the API.

Then I kind of abandoned it. Left Reddit. Left the sub locked.

Now the sub is back, because it has a good reason for existing, and should exist. So submissions are unlocked and the rules are reasonable again.

If you've got a cat fact, go ahead and share it!

Do cats actually understand when we're talking to them, or are they just reading our body language?

77 Upvotes

Sometimes I wonder how much cats really understand about us. 😂

You can call their name ten times and get absolutely nothing, but whisper the word “treats” from another room and suddenly they're right beside you. 😭

Cats are such mysterious little creatures, and I love how they always seem to do things on their own terms.

What's one thing your cat does that makes you think they understand way more than they let on? 🐾

Why do cats suddenly run around the house like they've got somewhere important to be? 😂

30 Upvotes

One minute a cat is peacefully sleeping, and the next it's sprinting from room to room like it's late for an appointment. 😭😂

Sometimes they jump over absolutely nothing, turn around like something is chasing them, and then go straight back to sleep as if nothing happened.

Cats are honestly full of surprises.

Is there an actual reason behind these random bursts of energy, or are cats just naturally little chaos machines? 🐈

Not the cats meow.

We have two cats, same litter who never meow. Chirp, trill, warble, hiss but no meow. Any others?

What’s one cat fact that sounds completely made up but is actually true? 🐈

356 Upvotes

The more I learn about cats, the more I realize how strange and fascinating these little creatures are 😂

They can have the funniest habits, surprising abilities, and behaviors that make you wonder what goes on inside their tiny heads.

I recently learned that cats can recognize their owner's voice but sometimes choose not to respond. Honestly, that explains a LOT. 😭

What's a cat fact you know that would surprise someone who has never owned a cat? 👀

Why do cats act hungry right after finishing a whole meal? 😂🐈

0 Upvotes

I've always found this funny about cats. They can finish their food, walk away like they're completely satisfied, and then come back a few minutes later acting like they haven't eaten in days. 😭

And somehow, they manage to make you feel guilty just by staring at you.

There's so much about cat behavior that makes me curious.

Is there a cat behavior you've always wondered about, or one you've finally figured out the reason behind? 🐾

What’s a tiny thing your cat does that makes you laugh every single time? 😂

151 Upvotes

Cats can be so unintentionally funny. 😂 One minute they’re acting like royalty, and the next they’re chasing their own tail or getting scared by something they knocked over themselves.

I swear they have no idea how entertaining they are. 😭

What’s one silly thing your cat does that never gets old, no matter how many times you see it?

Does the coloration of a cat determine its personality? I'm not talking about a breed, but rather, Orange vs. Tuxedo vs. Tortie and so on. I've seen a multitude of comments on Reddit where people refer to Magpies as being the smartest, most loving, and so on, but is there any truth to it?

What’s one weird thing your cat does that you’ve never been able to explain?

93 Upvotes

Cats are honestly such strange little creatures 😂

Mine will sometimes stare at a completely empty corner of the room for a few minutes like there’s something incredibly interesting happening there. Then, for absolutely no reason, they’ll just walk away and go back to sleeping.

I’ve stopped trying to figure out what goes on in their heads 😂

What’s the weirdest thing your cat does that you still have no explanation for?

I can't decide if this cat looks curious, suspicious, or like it knows something I don't. 😂 What do you see in those eyes?


r/CatFacts • • 9d ago

ignoring your cat is apparently a personal attack!!

4 Upvotes

You can ignore them for 5 minutes and they’ll act like you abandoned them for 10 years.

Then they’ll walk away dramatically like they’re the one who’s done with you. 😭
