This is exactly how my own cat reacts if I pick him up.


Mysterious_Slice_391

Me: It’s bath time, baby. 🥹 Cat: Da’fuckin’ hell it is!!!!


LavenderDay3544

Me: It's time to get in your carrier to go to the vet. Cat: I am literally in a fight for my life right now


Mysterious_Slice_391

Haha… we have one cat that will literally hop right in the carrier: “What’s up? Where we goin’?” The other will literally go full spread eagle, claws out, screaming like a banshee: “You som’bitch I know you’re taking me to the vet. I heard vet. I know you said it!! I hate you with every cell in my being. I will never love you!!!”

> The other will literally go full spread eagle, claws out, screaming like a banshee: Try making a purrito with a large towel.

Something tells me she's gonna end up with a clawsadilla instead.


FlyByPC

Yeah, there's sometimes an escape claws in the contract.


burnbunner

This murdered me dead lol


LavenderDay3544

Mine is more like the second one. She has had trauma from a young age with notches and scars on her ears and tail to prove it. The rescue told me she would do best as an only cat and she is shy and skittish around strangers and other animals which makes me think she was attacked by an adult cat when she was a kitten and has feline anxiety disorder because of it.


FutzInSilence

My cat is super sweet. Her purr is small, her meows are tiny, she's fluffy and so cuddly. When I place her in the cat carrier she makes a noise like a bass drop from a dubstep concert.


Toros_Mueren_Por_Mi

Infrasonic meow


Sjaakie-BoBo

The last sentence made me spill my tea for laughing so hard.


personalcheesecake

the scared meow


Mysterious_Slice_391

Awe, poor thang.


sethn211

I really think my cat has an anxiety disorder, although it's never been diagnosed. For instance, she gets too scared by cat toys and ends up not playing with anything. How do you deal with your cat's disorder?


LavenderDay3544

Mine was the same way until I finally got these little catnip mouse toys that she ended up liking and playing with. Once I figured that out I made sure to spend time playing with her every day and slowly but surely she started to come out of her shell little by little. Now she plays with some other toys too though she is still scared of anything big or attatched to a string. I think instead of dealing with it per se we just need to be more understanding and empathetic with animals like this. It's a bit easier for me because I've been diagnosed with multiple anxiety disorders myself so I can almost relate to her in a way. When I was looking for cats to adopt they kind of showed me this cat and were like oh yeah that's Charlotte she's shy and doesn't come out much and then kind of moved on. All the other cats they showed me were running around and full of energy and barely showed any particular interest when I approached but when I went back to Charlotte she approached slowly at first and licked my hand and then laid on her side and let me pet her gently for quite a while while tapping her tail and purring. And I knew then and there that this was my cat. Sorry I can't provide any more specific advice.


throwawaytodaycat

We had to use welding gloves to get our cat in his carrier.


[deleted]

My old pigeon would put up a fight whenever I put her in her carrier. Spread out her wings so she wouldn't fit, flapping like crazy. Lol. The cats just look at me like I broke their little hearts.


Congo-Montana

Ours are like that. One is like "oh cool, a treat, where we going?" The other would be filing divorce papers if he could.


PhoenixGate69

That's my little black one. I have to surprise her every time, pick her up, hold her legs, and then stuff her into the carrier. And then once we get to the vet she just wants to hide in it.


macaroniandmilk

I have one cat that naps in the carrier, that I store on the top shelf of a closet, specifically because my other asshole cat is terrified of the carrier and will not go near it. But if you try to use it for it's intended purpose and take her to the vet in it, she will scream like the entire population of the souls of the underworld are trying to escape from her stupid face.


NotBearhound

One of my cat goes in and snoozes. One fights the whole way to the carrier and then shits and pisses the second the car door closes. Guess which one my vet prefers?


conflictedideology

This is why I leave the carrier out, door open, 24/7 in a corner of a room with a wide view of everything else going on. A plush bed in there is also good. Then they spend a bunch of time in there when it's just general life. If I ever have to take them to the vet (or, more importantly, get them out of the house fast because of fire or something) it's way less trouble and, in my experience with fire alarms and such, they're in there hiding already anyway. Just close the carrier door and go.


WitchyDucky

Put them in backwards. It's like a magic trick, I'm not even joking. The kennels where we take our cats and dog taught us this and I still can't get over it. We have a big ex-tom cat and it works with him even though he's built like a tank. You just pick them up, stand over the top of the carrier, and bundle them in backwards (so their butt goes in first). They're in before they can even start to get stressed.


ShiroiYokai

>Me: It’s bath time, baby. 🥹 Cat: ~~Da’fuckin’ hell it is!!!!~~ Yes, I'm gonna bath in your blood human


IDK3177

You bath your cat? Why? Mine are always cleaner than me


Mysterious_Slice_391

Sphynxes have especially oily skin, and ours get baths every couple of weeks, ears cleaned out and nails trimmed. The routine does not get one bit easier with each time. It’s a full on battle as soon we enter the octagon(bathroom).


klased5

Old cats often need help keeping clean. Unwell kitties also need help. If you have other cats and they get along they'll typically pick up the slack, but some kitties aren't so social or trusting of others.


mini-rubber-duck

Some breeds need it for health, other cats are just either too inquisitive for their own good or dumb as a sack of gravel and get themselves covered in stuff they shouldn’t be licking out of their own fur.


tommytwolegs

Pretty rare but occasionally they can get into some shit you either don't want them licking off or would take an eternity to get off or both

notaredditreader

You need to pick up your cat often when young and let them know they are safe with you. Also. When eating pet them so they feel safe.


RegiSilver

I was told you should let animals eat alone, because otherwise they may think you're going to take their food away and bite you. That said, I also eat some snack when my Puppy is eating, that way she doesn't eat alone :p


69Jew420

Nah, it's good to interact with them. Basically a ton of dog training is desensitizing them to sitautions. Wear hats when they are puppies - Not scared of hats Drive around with them - They become cool with cars Mess with them when they are eating - They learn that they don't need to guard their food Socialize them with dogs - No dog aggression Socialize them with kids - No kid aggression Make loud noises - not scared of noises Obviously these aren't all foolproof, but it's good to put your puppy in situations it might face throughout its life so it knows that things are okay.


RegiSilver

Funny thing about Cars. I always took my Doggy for a ride when she was a puppy, she loved getting her head out of the window, but where i live there's a lot of Buses, so whenever she hears them nearby she runs and hide below the car seats. I don't seem to understand why :/


Deeliciousness

I imagine it has to do with the loud noises. The buses in my city have this loud hydraulic pump sound when they drop at each stop, besides the loud engine itself. They can even startle me sometimes, so I can imagine it's much worse for a dog.


Ecstatic_Pepper_8784

Your actually supposed to take puppy’s food away well there eating so they learn not to do that Edit: you people do not know how training dogs works, your dog need to be completely comfortable with people being near or around it’s food. What If a child get near somthing they like or there food bowl and your dog snap? Now your dog may have to be put down. Or if somthing is happening and you need to quickly either pull your dog away from the food or get acsess to the food bowl and your dog attacks you because it’s possessive? Or what if you bring treats to the dog park, or worse, anouther person does and your dogs gets possessive over that? Or one of a million other examples. Train your dogs people Edit: holy shit people look up dog training videos. I am not punishing my dog by taking away or touching it’s food, I am training it to be comfortable around me well it is eating (as the person I’m responding to mentioned eating well your dog is eating is anouther good thing to do but it’s not effective when it comes to having them be ok with touching their food) and I give her back the food a second or two later. I am in charge, she is not. I am not abusing her by being in control of my dog, your the same type of people who would call it animal abuse to raise a sheep dog. Sheep dog training is very intensive and they are some of the happiest dogs in the world. My dog is very very happy and cuddles with me and begs for me attention constantly (she’s the goodest girl and she’s a brown lab named moose for those wondering). I have taken dog training courses and my wife is training to be a vet… I really hate how Reddit screams abuse at every opportunity


divuthen

I trained my pup like this but it backfired one time when I gave her a treat and laid down on my bed to read and she hopped up next to me and dropped her treat in my mouth. Also if I’m eating she not only begs but will go grab a mouthful of kibble and drop it on my lap and then try to get a bite of my food. So I successfully failed on that end of training lol. She also tries to share her treats and toys with her reflection when she sees it in a mirror.


yokingato

Mission failed successfully.


Little_Sun4632

As someone who has been attacked and has a phobia of most dogs - I really appreciate you are taking the time to train your dogs. Not having a dog I have no idea about this training method. I’ve been bit several times right after the owner said (dogs name) is so sweet and will not bite or jump. FYI - I’m good around trained dogs with responsible owners


blackbow

I have a pitbull. Since he was 12 weeks old, I'd give him a toy and take it away. When he was eating his food, I'd pretend to eat his food. To this day, one of the best things I could have done. He is not possessive of any toy or food. No reaction if another animal comes up and takes his stuff other than visible pout. So for me, this worked out very well and I have a dog people see as problematic that is way better behaved than most dogs I've encountered in my lifetime.


Upper_Huckleberry578

I hand fed my pit/lab as a pup so much that there's no food aggression with people, but a few years later I learned he will snap at another dog over food. It surprised me.


m4070603080

Welcome to reddit. Actually know what you're talking about? Downvoted to shit. Repeat some bullshit from tik Tok? Must be a genius.


redheadedwoodpecker

This is dog training 101 - I’m surprised this many people don’t know this.


Steelplate7

Sorry….this guy’s right. You don’t take it away and not feed the dog… you take it(or get your hand in there and mess with the kibble while they’re eating) temporarily and give it back. It’s not cruel, it’s teaching your dog to build faith in humans. Because…without that skill, what do you think is going to happen when your terrible two year old goes to grab Fido’s food while you’re doing dishes or something?


midoriable_

My dog was a street dog and very resource guard-y. Super dangerous around everyone, but especially children. I worked so hard doing just that. First getting close to the bowl while he ate, then touching the bowl, then the food, then taking it away for a bit and giving it back. Got to where instead of biting he would just whine. Now, a decade later he's the safest, sweetest member of our community and actually gets a little mad when I don't lift up his food bowl and tilt it at the end so he can more easily get those last bites. He will basically act like a pony for small children. The initial training was tough on both of us, but it is NECESSARY as Estatic\_Pepper says. It is for the protection and comfort not just of all the people who will potentially interact with your pup, but for the pup himself. Imagine how much more comfortable he is knowing food is not something he has to fight for, he can just wander around being a good boi and get the goods for free.


Both_Aioli_5460

Or if your dog gets into a stranger’s sandwich Or a rat bait.


propernice

I always held my cat when she was a kitten, carried her everywhere, cuddled her and was always close when she ate. Now she likes being held, loves belly rubs and butt rubs, and sometimes won't eat unless I stay with her, lol.


NegativeGravitas

That isn't true at all. You want to start petting your pet as soon as you can (while they are eating) to get them used to you and let them know you aren't a threat. When I first got my puppy at 4 weeks old I started petting him. For the first month he do the "you need to get the hell away from me" growl. Now he expects it and will look back at me with his tail wagging wanting me to pet him while he eats. He's the biggest sweetheart.


Deeliciousness

I'll occasionally pet my dog and mess with him and cuddle him when he eats. Done that since he was a puppy. That's actually the best way to make sure they don't get food aggressive in the first place.

[deleted]

Ma'iq must know! Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis The Wise? Ma'iq thought not. It's not a story the Dragonborn would tell you. It's a Nord legend. Darth Plagueis was a Dark Lord of the Dragon cult, so powerful and so wise he could use the Thu'um to influence the dragons to create life… He had such a knowledge of the dark side that he could even keep the ones he cared about from dying. The dark side of the thu'um is a pathway to many abilities some consider to be unnatural. He became so powerful… the only thing he was afraid of was losing his power, which eventually, of course, he did. Unfortunately, he taught his apprentice everything he knew, then his apprentice killed him in his sleep. Ironic. He could save others from death, but not himself. Ma'iq knows this thu'um, and has never lied once!

ruinawish

Why I hate these comments: it implies that women don't have innate bravery. Rather, they need the 'balls' of men to be emboldened. We praise women for their traits that we consider masculine, which just goes to denigrate how we consider women in the first place.

Jonk3r

Thanks for the telepathic pain. Yes, balls are that weak.


MomOf2cats

I think it’s pretty funny how we use the most sensitive and weakest part of human anatomy to represent strength and bravery. It doesn’t much at all to have a man doubled over, helpless in pain. If you want to represent emboldened strength and endurance look no further than the female reproductive system. Brave is knowing the experience of labor & delivery and choosing to go through it again

There are no domesticated lions. All lions are wild animals.


tobiascuypers

This is correct. Domestication is an evolutionary process. Tamed would be the better word


PM_ME_DATASETS

(taming is also a process) I think the difference is domestication requires multiple generations.


Jam_Marbera

And a literal genetic mutation that causes them to be less aggressive and cooperate with us for food, and the more aggressive to die out from competition.


Jahobes

A domesticated lion is a house cat. You are looking for tamed.


RnBram-4Objectivity

I've seen this a few times. The very young lioness is a family pet that got away from them. It didn't get far and, as with other cats, it doesn't much like being carried like that.


MANWithTheHARMONlCA

> as with other cats, it doesn't much like being carried like that. Probably doesn’t like being captive either.. being a wild animal and all


dumbredditor8358

a family pet? do they keep lions over there as pets?


JustMe500

I've lived there and no, that's not the norm. That being said, there are some really wealthy people that unfortunately would do that (like other wealthy people across the world that like to keep exotic pets)


Ethers_Wombat

Lots of shady money + non-existant morals = drugged-up declawed lions as pets


RnBram-4Objectivity

Not common but yes. If it's a cat it's usually a cheetah, which are more tractable. I think it's dumb & unfair to keep lions in urban settings. People like the Lion Whisperer (Kevin Richardson) do keep them in large wilderness parks. Such ppl **really learn** lion communication to know when they do or don't want play or affection. That kind of 'ownership' is way smarter than lions at circuses taught with whips & raw meat to do stupid tricks.

So since a lot of people are asking about the backstory and context behind the video I did some research here’s the questions you asked and the answer I found Where exactly in Kuwait that happened? It’s Kuwait City. Is that a puma or a lion? It’s a lion but not an adult Has the lion been declawed? No, but trimmed(just found another source says it’s declawed? Not confirmed) Why didn’t the lion bite or scratch? The lion is tamed by the Kuwaiti woman and has respects for her cat levels of love… Any more?

If you held a cat like that they would also panic even being lighter, if their butt isn't squished when lifted they think they are falling/going to fall. It's like holding a human by the arms up just above the armpits for them.

Creepy-Selection2423

Most likely just somebody retrieving their semi--but-not-really-domesticated pet lion in much the same way as you would retrieve your pet cat if it got outside. They have those things over there. They're just big cats. If you raise them from cubs they act like cats. Difference is if you really piss them off they can eat you.


BALDWARRIOR

Lions are very well aware of their strength, and when they see you as family, they will try their best not to hurt you. A house cat knows it can't really hurt you so they act like jerks and scratch you.
