My domestic cats seem to locate any open available cardboard box and happily plop themselves into it. This got me thinking, would outdoor cats settle into a random box they find as easily too? What about big cats?

      Imagine a blind date where the other person brings their cat. Could be eccentric epic-level trolling, or could be a red flag. Would it matter, or would you wait a bit to grasp more context? What if the cat is not leashed, but polite and charismatic and seems so well trained as to understand English? Would you guess the date is a witch? Or If the cat is leashed/caged, and feral, and might be a skunk, because they work in animal rescue and routinely bring wild animals with them?

        I mean…

        I Don’t necessarily see a problem with either of those scenarios. Unless they’re abusing the cat/animals. I think I would suggest next time something more amenable to the animals, though.

        Also, I might flrt with the animal more than the actual date.

          I agree. I guess I was just imagining contrapositions to the “crazy cat lady” stereotype
