    Mostly to tell me that they’ve never had food or pets ever in their whole lives and that it’s a tragic void in their lives that needs to be filled.

    My cat does this bark/chirp and gives me this frustrated confused look. He’s essentially saying “Me, attention me” while he stretches his hands at me and “pretends” it’s just stretching.

    He thinks he’s clever but I got him all figured out.

  • My hamster is a fucking primadonna hipster who works out 8 hours a day.

    “Pellets…? Really…? Don’t you know they’re full of carbs…OH!! Fruit snacks!! I need energy!!”

    “Carrots and dill treat? No thanks. I only eat the cranberry ones.” *Drags treat over to his pooping corner and leaves it there.

    Me: “Did you just flush that treat down the toilet…?”

    At 1:30 AM “I’m going to the gym!” *Pushes hamster wheel up against the side of his cage for maximum banging and clattering noises, then proceeds to go on a brisk run for 2 hours.

    When I’m feeding him. “You may pick me up and pet me human, I consent. I like warm hands.”

    When I need to clean his cage. “Bad touch, bad touch! I do not consent! I will bite you!”

    My wife and I make up what my cat says. She has “conversations” with us. If we say something to her, she meows back. So we will say things like “what should we make for dinner?” And of course she just says “meow!” And we say, “no, I don’t want kibble for dinner. Think of something else.” So she again says, “meow!” And we say, “no, I don’t want canned wet food either!”
