no, put the knife away he meant go get them spayed/neutered

[–] MousePotatoDoesStuff@lemmy.world 21 points 15 hours ago

Looks like it fits 2^3 cats.

New religion discovered. "There was only enough cat bed for 2 or 3, but instead it held 8 cats"

[–] SoleInvictus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 10 hours ago

And Catrick said "Mew! Mew! Mewwww!" for the bowl was half empty and he feared his people were soon to starve, but the Lord descended amongst them and in their generosity filled every bowl with a bounty of Tuna and Scallop Feast.

The Lord commanded the cats to scratch not the rug or the furniture, and to only shit in the box in the living room, and in return promised their bowls would never remain empty.

And it was good, until the next day, when this was all forgotten.

A bountiful harvest!

How many cats go in the cat bed is for the cats to decide.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 60 points 1 day ago (5 children)

Every time I count I get a different number of cats.

You're only technically correct!

[–] JustAnotherKay@lemmy.world 12 points 18 hours ago

Took me a while to spot #3 lmao

[–] wax@feddit.nu 5 points 1 day ago (2 children)

There's a cat in the profile picture

[–] Diddlydee@feddit.uk 8 points 1 day ago

Which ain't in the bed

[–] Sculptor9157@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

But also the emoji for yet another at that rate.

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 2 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Add the 2-3 hypothetical cats mentioned... 5?

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 10 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

As I was going to St. Ives

I met a man with seven wives

Every wife had seven sacks

Every sack had seven cats

Every cat had seven kits

Kits, cats, sacks, and wives

How many were going to St. Ives?

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 4 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

Fuck bud you lose me after the man.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 10 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

It's a trick question; the answer is 1, the person going to St. Ives. 2,801 are going the other way.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 3 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

But if you're only counting the

Kits, cats, sacks, and wives

Wouldn't that be zero?

Or is that just a distraction in the riddle?

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 4 points 23 hours ago

It's just a reiteration of some of the elements of the riddle rather than a comprehensive list.

[–] Zwiebel@feddit.org 16 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You might have to practise counting

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 12 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That's what's called a passel. A soft & cuddly passel o' puss. Yup.

[–] N0t_5ure@lemmy.world 36 points 1 day ago (1 children)

That little seal point Siamese face poking out is adorable! Looks like the face at the bottom on the right is a sibling.

[–] lolola@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 1 day ago

Sneaky surprise siamese <3

[–] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago

Got room for one more?

Formerly "Cat King, Cold"?

[–] Soggy@lemmy.world 3 points 21 hours ago (1 children)

Maybe? I don't see any clipped ears.

[–] BeardededSquidward@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 9 hours ago (1 children)

Is the ear clipped thing universal or just certain parts of the world?

[–] Soggy@lemmy.world 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

A brief search confirms it in the US, Ireland, and Greece so while I'm not confident in saying it's for sure universal it seems likely that areas with a TNR program for feral cats probably do it.

Didn't think it was. This might be somewhere like Turkey where they do have a lot of street cats who are generally taken care of as well. Can't say for certain but that there's a bundle of them not scattering away instantly when the poster shows themselves to them tells they are aware and comfortable enough around humans they aren't exactly feral.
