Danger kitty has a question

[rootwyrm@weird.autos]

@cR0w @chillybot @catsalad I only LOOK like I have fur because it's so damn cold and makes it easier to ambush and eat people. Now let me the fuck back in, cr0w.

[cr0w@infosec.exchange]

@nyanbinary @catsalad Oklahoma Department of Wildlife only said to keep the ones with fur outside.

[cr0w@infosec.exchange]

@rootwyrm @chillybot @catsalad Sorry, I take the advice of Oklahoma Department of Wildlife very seriously. You'll be fine. Probably.

@feike @catsalad @ratsnakegames It's not an issue if you bring them inside to keep. ;)

[rootwyrm@weird.autos]

@cR0w @chillybot @catsalad oh yeah? And does Oklahoma have any tigers? That's right - they don't! So how could they possibly know? They can't.

@catsalad
This is a different kind of question.

@catsalad @cR0w Do hot aisle/cold aisle ecological boundaries drive speciation?

@fuzzyfuzzyfungus @catsalad So you're suggesting it's like Zootopia with different climate for different creatures? That's an interesting thought.

[bluestarultor@tech.lgbt]

@catsalad @feike At minimum 6 lbs. of meat a day at $6.30/lb. for ground beef, 365 days a year, it comes out to exactly $13,797.00/year/cheetah.

Naturally cheetahs also need trace amounts of plant nutrients they would otherwise get from prey, so the best way to do it would probably be as meatloaf using whole grains and probably healthy and safe veggies like green beans, which are not factored into that calculation.

Edit: This is to say that big cat diets are remarkably like housecat diets, but while Meow Mix is $28 for 26 lbs. and would only come to $1,703.34, I'm pretty sure feeding Meow Mix to a cheetah would get you locked up for animal abuse. XS

@feike @catsalad @ratsnakegames If it wasn't clear, this is all in jest and I would not, actually, abduct a wild cougar to bring into my house and hug them and squeeze them and love them forever. XD

But it's fun to fantasize as a cat lover.

@weezmgk @catsalad came here looking for this reply. 😊

@catsalad
That's an "outdoors only" kitty. It's very happy out there and would be miserable inside.

@catsalad “yeah, yeah, make yourself look big, I know the drill.”

@catsalad

When the Face Eating Leopards are not available, these are an appropriate substitute, when available in your ecosystem. ^-^

@catsalad
Kitty fren is showing belly for scritches!

[silvermoon82@wandering.shop]

@catsalad
Kitty fren would never lie about belly for scritches.

[gjersey999@ice.ch3.st]

@catsalad@infosec.exchange but what if polite and distinguished?

[soozcat@vmst.io]

@catsalad Fun fact: These are the largest cats that can purr continuously. And they sure do at the zoo, when their keepers give them skritches.
