I am finally the proud human slave of a standard issue cat.
I would like for the entire standard issue cat community to formally meet my new baby. She’s a teeny tiny little kitten, but definitely old enough to move to her new home.
She always tries to sleep on my black clothes. I genuinely don’t know why. If I didn’t know any better, I’d think she was deliberately trying to get her hair all over them.
She’s been compared to the LOL Surprise line of dolls. Google if you aren’t familiar, but it’s definitely a good comparison. Just think, last month she was ALL head on a teeny tiny little body. She’s a little more balanced now, but very tiny and cute.
Bell cannot damage hearing look it up. Way too low a sound to harm I thought so and looked it up it does not damage ears. That is too low in Tone frequency and in volume.
“But, after a while, your cat’s brain will screen out the tinkling of their bell. This may make them less aware of similar sounds too, and reduce their responsiveness to some noises as a result.”
“This can prevent them from detecting predators of cats, outside”e
Cats are part of the circle of life in vast majority of places replacing in part predators driven off by man’s being there.
Only isolated places not having predators or very limited areas where endangered animals are located.
I like having a tracking device on my pets. It’s quite helpful for me to know where they are in my house as long they are moving. My other cat has figured out how to trigger her bell less often.
Please do remove the bell though. How would you feel with bells on your shoes? And you can't remove them, even at night? Also they do not help at all with warning birds if your boss decides to roam outside: cats learn how to hunt without triggering the sound (but that's a lot of work so they don't do it for regular walking)
