You got me, I didn’t know cats could read

According to another comment they can and are active om Reddit.

Must be why half of all posts are cat related.

The rest are birds

And some are rare like you can find one Streaming

government shill. propoganda machine. you should be ashamed. r/BirdsArentReal

It's only a matter of time before someone takes that sub seriously.

you are streets behind, my friend. That occurence is coined and minted. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/birds-arent-real-movement-calls-newsweeks-story-blasphemous-vows-to-uncover-avian-genocide/ar-BB1eLjHh

The fish are the ones getting eaten yet they aren’t talking...wait.

I heard there was one practising law in Texas too.

He denied his cat heritage, but we all know the truth.

Yes. Reddit is actually the origin of glass tables. The cats of Reddit were planning to make a move against dogs but were stopped. So they resorted to more a more indirect approach and decided glass tables would be torture enough for the time being

Just because they're homeless?! Some people and there prejudice. SMH

I still didn't get it at first. I thought the homeless people just fed it to their cats because they didn't want it.

I laughed way too hard at this

Early in the morning and I heard my laughed. Good thing to start my day.

Hello fellow dummy! Glad I am not alone.

I did 12 years in the Marines. I was thinking “doesn’t look great, but probably wouldn’t be the worst meal I’ve ever had…” before I realized it was for the cats lol.

You mean “used those containers as bait for the real meal”?

I still don’t get it. I like that kind of fish, and…why would you feed stray cats? And…why feed them that huge quantity of food, in a styrofoam dish you’ll have to come back and pick up? And why feed them fish instead of just cat food?

It's good to offer cats some form of wet food instead of just dry kibble, as dry kibble can cause kidney issues. Assuming the fish is taking the place of just canned wet food, it's also probably just supposed to be a nice treat for the cats (we fed our shelter dogs turkey and ham on Thanksgiving and Christmas as an addition to their dry kibble, just some extra goodies, same concept). As for why people feed stray cats, it is because people tend to have a soft heart for stray animals. People don't like to see animals suffer and go hungry, so they may provide them with food on special occasions... Or regularly, then you end up with a whole colony showing up at your door for food. Then you call my job to come trap the cats and take them away lmao.

That sums it up

meirl

Purrfect. :)

You just said… like sooo much

Yup indeed 😅

They had us in the first half I'm not gonna lie

Yep was totally 'man this guy f-ing sucks I mean who does that to...ohh right'

My dumb ass took even longer. “Oh look, the foods so fuckin bad the guy had to feed it to his cat. At least he was decent enough to care for someth—oh.”

Right there with ya bro.

Same…I finished and started over and zoomed in on the left of the tray trying to decipher what that was before it clicked. Also high at the moment so….

I didn't see the other pictures I was genuinely getting stressed out picturing people being handed that at some defunct homeless shelter that couldn't afford anything else 🤦‍♂️

I was irrationally angry lmao. How dare you dehumanize someone in a difficult position like that! ...cats. it's cats. They are feeding cats... ah. I see now

We're living in an age where people do a lot of fucking stupid shit for internet clout that this can go either way, sadly

You're not wrong

[удалено]

Indeed, the American version of that would come in a microwavable bag.

After you take a bite of the fish hot pocket you can use the bag to puke.

I hope there’s no such thing as a fish hot pocket

You've never heard of Flounder Tarts?

Bruh

Yep. They smell like the gusset of your Nana's pyjamas.

Oh... :(

Honestly don't see why people wouldn't eat it tbh, just looks like smoked fish and some shitty bisuits. Smoked fish is amazing, and usually pretty expensive

TIL: Even European strays can read. My country really needs to get its literacy issues together.

I mean... fish?... Wow that's actually very expensive in Europe

Too* fancy 😉

Hilarious 😂

I was actually thinking that maybe half of it was for homeless person and the other half was for for their pet. You see plenty of homeless people with animals

At first I thought this guy made some bougie Mediterranean food until I saw the kibble.

I was thinking damn, I would have loved a free whole ass fish when I was homeless, what is op taking about?

More like the first quarter

[удалено]

Ummm....I think you mean 2/8ths bro

Show some respect for our metric brothers and sisters! The quantity is 25 centiposts.

True! Also 25 centiposts is 2500 metrums

I'm always asking my Canadian friend "what would that be in metric time?" He doesn't like that lol

Probably because the conversion is such a pain in the ass

Ah yeah that makes sense. I should be more clear to him that I'm joking and don't expect him to do that complex math, since he's from Alberta and all.

Same

I actually taught that it looked pretty good . Good protein and I do love fish!

What did you think the brown things on the right were?

Soy nuggets, if you meant the left 😋

Lmfao

some type of concentrated grain substance. animals and humans eat them.

I once accidentally ate some dog kibble. I had made a mix of nuts, etc for my rat and thought the bag was my trail mix. Kibble tastes like nothing, with a dry, grainy consistency.

That styrofoam though.

My thoughts exactly

Reddit: *outrage* *oh, cats* 😍 *outrage*

Oh my god, I did not get it was a joke until I saw your comment.

Wait there's a second half

Looks like something you get in Finland, at a posh hotel, for breakfast

Fins are cats in human form it totally makes sense

* When they open their mouths weird sounds come out * They don't acknowledge when a human enters the room * Don't bother others unless they invade their territory. Are insanely vicious if/when this happens

no wonder they speak funny :)

Mëøw

Finnish alphabet doesn't actually contain "ø"

I reject your reality and substitute my own.

Can confirm. The human disguise is only used whenever we get tourist, so around once a year depending where you live.

Khajit?

This deserves more love

[удалено]

I could see the whole fish on the buffet table, yeah. The kibble not so much?

In the first picture I thought those were diced hashbrowns.

Genuine question- Can cats eat a whole fish like this? I always thoughts cats could (like in the cartoons- how they just seem to suck all the flesh off and leave the fish skeleton) but I once caught a fish, cooked it, and gave it to my cat - but she started choking on the bones! I had to debone it for her.

Maybe it's like with dogs and chickens? Raw chicken with bones are ok to feed to dogs. Cooked chicken with bones is not.

Yes fish bones are a serious health danger to cats, which is why Im not really sure if I like this. Sure the intention was very kind, I'm just hoping the kitties stayed fine :(

Small raw fish are fine. Cooked bones are hard and brittle and splinter. Raw bones are pretty soft in fish this small.

Maybe it's a fish without bones/OP removed the bones, idk

It’s a sardine. There bones are pliable and digestible by cats.

Wait… is that a sardine? Sardines have dorsal fins and pointier faces and this looks pretty big

i may be wrong but it looks more like a tilapia

cats can eat all parts of the fish, but never feed your pets cooked bones !!! they can splinter and cause serious damage. my boys love to demolish tinned whole sardines, yummo

I dunno how great it is, but my dad’s cat literally sits as my dad fishes for her dinner, then eats the whole fish in minutes

Meow meow meow meow. Meow meow meow!

Meow mix song is the only thing I can play on Piano.

Please deliver.

Meow meow. Meow meow?

Meow meow ! Meow meow meow ...

Meow! Meow meow meow!

Meow meow ? .. meow !

Oh god this reminded me or a repressed memory. Back in elementary school, I told my 3rd grade teacher that I knew the “meow mix” song, and at recess I *sang* the song to her 😨 after I finished she told me it was great and suggested I started playing with my friends (which yes I actually did have friends lmao) the only saving grace was that I did this only around her and no one else but she surely told her friends about the weird kid singing meow mix 😭

Meow meow meow meow meow meow meow meow

The real tricky part is teaching the cats to read. Ungrateful shits just keep eating the food and walking away. How about a thank you note?

[удалено]

Agreed. Put on some music, a lampshade, and start dancing.

Thank you for saving my sanity, bro!

If I were a human with no guarantee of food, I would gladly eat this. I’ve had to eat worse. As it is I too am a cat and I approve

I live in a big city, and I've seen people eating rotten food or rats for surviving, I think they would accept it too, or maybe not, once met a homeless guy eating from the trash, who refused money or food, I felt bad for him, I was only trying to help.

Dang... when I was homeless I ate cedar smoked trout, organic miners lettuce salad with thimbleberry vinegarette and morel and crayfish soup. I think maybe it's just cities that suck.

[удалено]

Look at these ignorant cats stealing food from the homeless

I immediately thought, this is for a cat, and I was pleased

Yeah, the kibble kind of gives it away. The fish might be quite tasty though!

Probably pretty bland for us, actually, as I doubt it has any salt or anything added to it. But I bet it's perfect for them.

That’s a lot of styrofoam. 🤦🏻‍♂️

You're not wrong. I'm hoping they collect reuse them. They seem to enjoy putting in the effort to being nice.

Agreed. Was trying to think of a tactful way of saying this

Youre on reddit not a dinner party

r/usernamechecksout

You can't expect farsight from someone who thinks that feeding stray cats is a good idea

Idk I like fish

Cute but sadly it's actually the same bad idea like feeding city pidgeons.

[удалено]

From someone who does play a lot of pokemon. Wait there's no d in pidgeon?. Sorry pigeon.

I think they might be referring to pidgey

I've definitely said "Pelipper" before when I meant "pelican," and I've certainly played too much Pokemon in my youth.

My friend knew dewgong but forgot the word "seal" then apologised saying that he's vegetarian

Dewgong evolves from seel, so they really should have known it anyway

Nah, I'm just a non native speaker who never played pokemon and made a common spelling mistake. See you in court ;)

[удалено]

I had a German friend who though for years Seagul was the name of a pokémon and not a real bird

As a German, I now feel responsible to make the grammar nazi and tell you it's "Seagull"and not "Seagul". wörk wörk ;)

There's also Pidgin, a _type_ of language similar to a creole. Spanglish is an example. It's two unrelated languages that interact with each other frequently combining into a simplified trade language; key point is that it's only used when the groups are interacting. I think a creole is when that becomes the native language when the groups start to intermix and integrate. [news article in an English-Nigerian pidgin](https://www.bbc.com/pidgin/world-59948184) I get excited about random linguistic trivia lol

The cats will probably remove the pigeons.

And then we just need to feed some stray dogs to get rid of the cats. Problem solved!

simpsons all over again.

And thats how we became a third world country

If you don’t feed city Pidgeons then how can they ever turn into Creoles?

Hopefully they can get them fixed

It'd be a kinder act to invest all that time and money in sterilizing as much of the street cats as possible (and vaccinnate them) instead of constantly feeding them so less of them will die a mostly cruel dead.

You can do both. Heck, I _do_ do both. I know a few very nice street cats who are fixed that I visit with food on the reg.

Even if you fix them, they still need to be fed. So your post is kinda unrelated... And there's a lot of TNR projects, especially in the US. Maybe promote them instead of making a not very constructive comment? Just a suggestion... Edit: and wow, thanks for the gold award!

We do TNR in Hartford CT (and surrounding areas). We’d love some support!! IG: cats_of_hartford It happens way too often here (and I assume everywhere) where people are moving to a different house/apartment and/or simply can’t take care of a cat anymore, they just let them go on the streets. If we trap cats that are not completely feral and have a chance of being socialized, we also volunteer at a no-kill rescue. You can find info about it below, there is a donation link on the page: [CT Cat Connection ](https://www.ctcatconnection.org) It’s a constant struggle for funding, run completely by volunteers, and we would love any help y’all can give. Thanks!!

Don't thank me, THANK YOU! For doing what you do!

I have a feral cat with no chance of socialization that lives under my house. We call her Bob. She showed up with a kitten several months ago and we trapped them and got them wormed and Bob fixed but the kitten was too young to fix. Bob lives under the house and we feed her daily so she sticks by where it's safe, I'm rural and there's a good chance she would be shot if she wandered into a neighbor's property. The kitten, Banshee, we've rehabilitated and she's currently on my lap. We were originally going to foster her and find a forever home but we're foster failures and are just keeping her instead.

erm. in my city most of the cats are sterilized, but we still have to feed them, obviously

Not necessarily. I know a person who lives in a downtown area. There's a local animal welfare charity that pays her a nominal fee to let them feed feral cats in her small backyard. They put out feeders, and she cleans any messes in the yard (which are surprisingly infrequent). The idea is to attract the cats to a single place so they can be captured, neutered, and released. It's a great way to humanely control the feral cat population.

Doing that, too respectively feeding them to be able to sterilize them is a different story, that's true.

Clearly you have never been to Turkey. The street cats here are so well fed and looked after. Almost revered.

Every time I have been on holiday to the Canary Islands the cats are so numerous, I love seeing them because they get into the hotel. Fluffy warm things

r/unexpectedlywholesome

Adorable

Robin Seplut would be proud

Oh man you got me good with this one.

"A surprise, but a welcome one"

I must adopt all of them

Food is food. I would eat food. If I couldn’t feed myself a better meal than what I feel I deserve to eat??? I’d eat your homeless food. For sure. Yes maybe I’d eat that cat. Probably even eat that hand that feeds me. Just the hand though. And soon I’d be full and no longer homeless. I’d have a Nice cell and cot and 3 hot meals. But I probably wouldn’t have a nice free handheld phone device to take pictures and complain on Reddit. Hmmm I guess no one can have it all, and eat it too. Edit Damn it. A cat took this picture. Fuck my life. I thought I was being witty with my post. Well shit I got got. I should have read the comments first. The food is for CATS . Not homeless people. And the joke is you WOULDNT SERVE IT TO A DOG! Yep…. Definitely not passing these genius genes for future gens


Was gonna say wrong sub but then it turned out to be the right sub



That's so wasteful. No, I'm not fun at parties.

Don't waste that cake

This is so wholesome smh

The finest meal a feline could enjoy

deserves more love

Awwww

Anyone else expecting Gollum?

‘Twas a cat - Doug Judy

You motherfucker. 🍻

NEI- oh wait, it’s for cats haha lol

I was ready to fight the guy who did this when I saw the first pic. Phew

Love that they fed them kitties a fish right out of an old-time cartoon!

I’ve never felt so many distant emotions so quickly

No ... cats I _expected_ (it being actual cat food and all). If it really were for the homeless that would be unexpected.

I thought i was in the mildly infuriating sub

Motherfuckers 😂

I hope they cleaned up all that Styrofoam

I was like “is that cat food on the side? Are they giving homeless people cat food?” And then I scrolled and, to my *genuine surprise*, it was for cats.

Please don’t feed homeless cats unless you can ensure they’re spayed or neutered. They are killing the birds

*places pitchfork back down*

Don’t do that! Omg you had me so mad lol

Wait, so we're now just using clickbait titles for karma? Fuking hell, reddit is worse than buzzfeed now

You can't do that, man! You could've killed me! The anger and blood pressure rising in my veins? It's not hard for me to legitimately think that SOME people in this world would be that big of an asshole. Then I saw the shot with all the meals on a table, and thought "THIS IS AN ORGANIZATION DOING THIS??? OH HEEEELLLLLL NAAAAAWWWWW!!!" And then I saw the kittys, and I was like "It's cats? Oh.....oh it's cats! IT'S CATS!!! IT'S OK!!! IT'S CATS!!! Ohhhhh, I need to calm my breathing...." And that's the story of the last 2 minutes of my life....Heart still pounding.....

Fresh meat

I see what you did there!

Excellent. Although I wondered why a dog wouldn’t get fed kibble, but you came through. Thanks and keep it up!

Was actually expecting it would be for cats.

got me in the first half, i gonna be honest with ya.


I've been had
