One time I was in bed, when suddenly the smelliest cat butthole a foot away from my face just straight up assaulted my nose.

Now I'm so thankful whenever I hear that slep slep slep in the middle of the night, and I can sleep peacefully without dreaming of any cat buttholes.

I've trained my cat to clean his backside off the bed. He'll wash himself until he gets to that bit and then jumps off the bed and continues.

I find a cat washing himself very relaxing somehow.

You train? Your cat?? In this house, it's more like my cat trains me😭 but yes, very relaxing. I'm sure my cat thinks I'm creepy as I love staring at him while he licks that one wet spot over and over again.

Consistency is key with all animals! I really don't think they understand the concept of "sometimes." so if it's something like "I don't want you on the countertop" then you always need to respond to that in the same exact way and in a way that isn't frightening so they're not afraid of you, but to just respond to what you're doing. So for example I snap my fingers when I don't like what she's doing and she'll stop, or I make a specific hand gesture if I want her to jump up on my lap.

Some cats are just stubborn assholes though so I guess your milage may vary lol

[–] ellaella_ayayay@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Mine's definitely in the extremely stubborn category, but I just love him so much- assholery and all lol

Urgh, i had a girlfriend with an old basset type dog who would neurotically lick his paw until it was red and raw on top. So at night, slurp... slurp... slurp... slurp... slurp...

I'm sure I'll get canceled for this, but I broke my dog of this habit by just smacking her whenever she started. Nothing that would hurt or cause a bruise, but if she's doing that (or humping a pillow, or any other stuff like that) I'd give her a light smack and she'd stop. She also has her own pillow that she's allowed to suckle when she gets overstimulated, so she has some outlet, just one I approve of. After a few months she mostly stopped with the neurotic licking.

Pretty sure you can do the same by just like, poking them or shoving them a bit. The point is just to interrupt the behaviour and eventually their habit should break.

I like cats.

I've got used to it, but my wife once got actually mad and couldn't sleep because of it hahahah

Listen, real talk. Doesn't matter how you identify, you're just jealous because you can't also lick your own genitals.

[–] squiblet@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago

It's overrated.

I had great success with construction/shooting range ear muffs. Great for noisy hotels, also.

Da hell? My cat licking itself while sitting on me while i try to fall asleep is the most soothing thing ever

[–] Dicska@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Yeah, because your pet is a cat. I bet you never had a betta fish before.

[–] squiblet@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

A cat grooming is generally low key and reserved. A dog licking is slurpo, slurp, slurp, scklacky slurp, slurp...

[–] TechDiver@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago

Ok, that makes sense

[–] I_Miss_Daniel@kbin.social 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Here in Australia I think it's known as glopping.
