      There’s also just a certain…musk? It’s immediately noticeable when you enter someone’s house and they have a cat. I feel like the residents must get nose blind to it because they don’t believe me when I tell them, but there is definitely a certain cat smell that just gets everywhere.

        I think it’s cat pheromones which they use to indicate wheter the place is safe. people claim you can’t smell it but I can definetly smell it

        Mainly depends on the flat size and how often ppl clean. At my parents place you notice the cat smell only in her room… You can guess the size of that place, as the cat has it’s own “40 m^2 apartment” to sleep.

        If you are in a small place and the cat always lies in the same corners is clear that they smell without washing. It’s like wearing the same hoody for months without washing.

        My wife and I get two cats tomorrow for our 60m^2 flat. Let’s see how that pans out.

      I mean, that’s their poop. Everybody’s poop stinks. There’s obviously mitigation strategies, but if the actual cat stinks, you should probably consult with your vet and maybe give them a bath with or without water? Cats don’t usually stink…

      And they spreading their musk is like part of their definition as a cat.

      As someone who has had both cats and dogs basically my whole life, Idk what this cope is about cats not being stinky. Everyone who has a cat has a place that smells like cat. Same with dogs. Unless you’re a compulsive cleaner and purposely cover up all smells preemptively with chemicals, you’re place will smell a bit like your pet. We’re all stinky babies at the end of the day.

      Exactly, which is why I always preferred to keep amphibians as pets. No smell at all. And mammals all stink.

    Who the hell would throw off a baby from a 20 stroy building?

    The max I’ve tried was 3 and that was already pushing it, only worked due to the long grass below.

      It’s the efficient thing to do when you’re taking care of the bath water and live on the 20 stroy building. You know the saying, “If you don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater, you’ll need to take an extra trip to the window.”

      And if you’re wondering why we don’t just use the drain, babies don’t fit down most drains. Try having a kid for a bit and you’ll see!

    So, this baby has teeth (and babies of this age do not usually). I can’t tell if we are all just unnerved and not noticing, or ignoring for the benefit of the joke. So this is for whoever falls in the first camp.

      Yup. That a newborn with teeth, which is impossible. My son’s teeth came in very early, but his first one was at about 4 or 5 months. They also all come in at different times, so they’re not all the same size like the teeth in the meme. I think it’s an AI image.
