Yeah but that one time it comes over and you get to pet the cat gives you all the dopamine you need for an entire day
Right?! I have little dignity anyway; losing what’s left to pet an unknown, outdoor cat is totally worth it.
I went psst psssst pssst to a cute cat in a garden I was passing, not noticing a woman walking towards me. She thought I was hissing at her, gave me such a LOOK. She was wearing hijab, I’m an old lady, who knows what was going through her head.
No dopamine for me that day.
If you want to entice a cat to come closer, don’t look at it! Direct eye contact is seen as threatening.
Put out your hand, point your face away from the cat, and put your hand out while gently calling it over. Your success rate will be much higher!
Also, a good cat-noise to attract them is a light trill with an upward inflection. It’s my go-to when assuring nervous/unsure cats.
Psssp pssp pssssp
What. I was in the middle of something. What do you want? You know what? Nevermind, I’m just going to go back to what I was doing.
My girlfriend is a cat whisperer. When she meows, the random cat comes over to her 90% of the time.
This post reminded me of that cat from azumanga daioh
I don’t care. I know they are all better than me.
Sometimes it works though
Not possible. She is no random person as she is in fact the queen of thyme. Quit the BS, we all know what’s up.
