A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions

Rules: (interactive)

1) Be nice and; have fun

Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them

2) All posts must end with a '?'

This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?

3) No spam

Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.

4) NSFW is okay, within reason

Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected]. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].

5) This is not a support community.

It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Could be the type of pet, the breed, how they behave, their relationship...anything about the pet that informs you on their human.

I have (have) had 13 cats at one time. I'm down to 6.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 3 months ago (2 children)

That's too many cats.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Bruh I said I'm down to 6.

And can you blame me?

I mean look at them..

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 months ago

Well, yeah.. when you put it that way.

I told a girl I moved in with that we have a limit on pets. Either 1 dog, or 2 cats. Thats it. I'm not going to be walking down the street with 15 dogs, and a room dedicated to cat litter boxes.

Zero cats? Maybe you need a cat.

One cat? Maybe your cat needs a friend.

Two cats? This is an acceptable amount number of cats.

Three cats? This is getting out of hand, but maybe you found a foster cat that you decided to permanently home.

Four cats? You're officially the crazy cat lady from the simpsons.

My rule is that pets are not allowed to outnumber humans in the household.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

I go one step farther and say pets should not be allowed to outnumber the responsible adult humans in the household.

You can decide where that boundary is.
