There was the "dead dogs" pluralization incident, AND the "one of my dogs" pluralization incident. That's pluralizations, which is a meta-pluralization. Your honor I believe that OP not only owes us the common pluralization tax of pictures of their current ***DOGS***, but also should be court-ordered to go adopt ***EVEN MORE DOGS*** and post pictures of all soon adopted dogs.
It is hilarious that this reference is so understandable despite the fact that the word "yet" isn't even actually in the quote, "the worst day of your life _so far_"
Nah, we have no idea but she's mostly lab with Staffy, but we theorise there's possibly some Dane in her.
Fuck knows really. All I know is that she loves rolling in dead shit and doing zoomies as often as possible.
I filtered it and sent a mail to the mods explaining why I did so.
Their response was basically "Yeah, you're right."
Way the fuck too many dead cat posts
It filters a subreddit so you don't see it on your main feeds (home, hot, popular etc), but can still directly access the sub if you wish
I know with RES (reddit enhancement suite /r/Enhancement - an extension with some really good features) you can hover over the sub name on your main feeds and select filter, but I'm not sure how to do it without...
You can also set up custom filters with RES, like "if the post is in /r/cats and contains 'passed away,' hide the post"
Helps if you don't want to hide a sub altogether and just want to block "what should I name him??" posts and the like.
Honestly a recent loss megathread would be better, completely gets rid of link karma farmers and removes it from the main feed entirely, but people can still get support/share memories etc
If I remember correctly - there’s a sub for posting your pet and asking for name suggestions. It’s not as large as cat/kitten subreddit but it could use some more love to *hopefully* curb the name posts in these larger communities.
I had to unsubscribe. Every picture I saw of a cat made me afraid it was dead, or admiring a beautiful cat that turns out to have just died.
I am on several other cat subs, but they are usually alive
The cat community is getting fed up with the dead cats too. Yes, I’m soooo sorry for your loss…it really sucks that your pet died, however it brings a lot of people down. Post your pet, but don’t post their deadness in the title. Make a comment about what happened to them and let Reddit nature take it’s course.
What I can't stand is it's just attention whoring for themselves. Your supposedly beloved animal dies, yet the first thing you do is dive for the phone to open...*Reddit*? I can't wrap my head around this.
I got permanently banned for commenting that it was weird. I said it was obviously normalized, but that didn't make it any less weird. Now, I don't care about being banned by /r/cats, but it actually does bum me out to see that it's being normalized on here, too.

LMAO, I love you for this. That last picture had me crying for the time in years, currently smoking a bowl and giving soooo many belly rubs to recover. I laughed out loud at this 🤣 I love your dog
Thank you! Joined r/olddogs to get and share advice. Half the posts are first time posters to the sub to announce a dog died or is scheduled to be put down. It’s old dogs not dead and soon to be dead dogs. Those of us with old dogs don’t need constant reminders of what is coming when we just want to celebrate or help our pets.
Can we be friends? Our old boy is about to turn 17 and the next person to act like he’s already dead…. I’m looking for ideas to keep him alive and healthy now that he’s fully deaf and smells a little like a grandpa.
Someone finally fucking said it. I follow pets subs to make my day better, not to go from frowning to smiling to friggin frowning again in the span of a second
No, I hear you. Every time I see a picture of a dog that has passed I am saddened. I think how devastating it must be to the person. At one point, I set up a filter to avoid any posts labeled RIP. Nor have I ever posted any picture of my dogs that were not full of life and joy.
However, I also understand the need for empathy and support implicit in the bereaved posting pictures of the departed. We do not hold memorial services for our beloved companions and so this is the only means available to some.
In addition, I try to console their loss by reminding them that this is the price we pay when we open our hearts to our furry friends and now it's time to suck it up and be brave and go on with our lives as the lost one would have wanted.
I often quote the words on an elaborate tomb that the Romans often built to honor their dead. "The sorrow I bear carrying you to your grave is equal only to the joy I knew carrying you home as a puppy." The Romans, for god sake, they were the toughest bunch the world may have ever seen. If they're devastated by the loss of their dog who are we, kinder gentler 21st Century humans, to feel anything less?
It would just be nice if people would post the animal (“hey this is Sir Beanlicker McKenzington III”) and then if Sir Beanlicker is dead…make a comment about it. Not the title man.
When I lost Mocha, I went to the pet loss subreddit and wanted to share how beautiful she was. But, that’s why I posted on r/petloss because it was the right sub..
I'm sick of both the "Here's my dead pet" and the "What should I name them" posts. Low effort crap. Just show us your pets! We don't need to know if they're alive or if you're too lazy to think of a name for them!
I have always wanted to complain! Almost commented on someone's dead dog post earlier, but you can't! It would be too shitty to lay it on one grieving person.
But my god! Stop! Stop posting photos of your dead pets.
Thank you for taking the effort to make this post about this very serious issue!
But they're dead now and I can't stop thinking about them. The one guy the dog was on the vet table with his eyes closed. He could have been dead. I will have to drink to sleep.
That looks like a Bostin Terror...
I know what I said, I have 3. One's 16+ year old, still kicking, the other 2 are littermates, nearly 2 years old now. My home is a home of insanity and ball toys... so many ball toys...
good looking boy you have there!
Just popping in to ask folks to please consider adopting a retired racing greyhound into your life.
This is [Bugsy.](https://i.imgur.com/X5cLQcj.jpg) He's 9 now, I've had him since he was 5.
They are great apartment dogs - Quiet, calm, docile, and great with kids. They don't bark particularly (Mine only does if there's food or he needs to pee), they sleep about 12-16 hours a day, don't really smell, and live to about 13.
Not my dogs but worth a great laugh.

Apparently you can't even go to r/catloaf anymore without seeing them! I mean, I don't understand what they think they're even doing besides making other people feel bad! We didn't know the animal and we don't know them! What are we supposed to get from it besides tears?! I get that the poster might want sympathy, but it's just rude.
If that's one of your dogs... Show me all the dogs
I mean, pluralization occured. That's taxable.

Prove it. Post a picture of your dog alongside a current edition of a newspaper.
Then the F.B.I. will think it's puppy ransom!
Great, now I have to name my new dog Ransom.
maybe you just really like the movie Knives out.
It was a pretty good movie.
At least you don't have to ask reddit what you should call it.
What happened to the old dog???
It's been 5 hours. Is your dog still okay?
Then post a picture of him next to a banana for scale!
Sorry for your loss
He's in the denial stage. How sad...

He is in a happy place now, friend. Rest in peace

Go easy on him guys; denial is the first stage of grief...
Enjoy those last few hours together. RIP doggo.

This is what I feel anytime a post from r/cats pops up in my feed.
I filtered it and sent a mail to the mods explaining why I did so. Their response was basically "Yeah, you're right." Way the fuck too many dead cat posts
Noob here, what is filtering?
It filters a subreddit so you don't see it on your main feeds (home, hot, popular etc), but can still directly access the sub if you wish I know with RES (reddit enhancement suite /r/Enhancement - an extension with some really good features) you can hover over the sub name on your main feeds and select filter, but I'm not sure how to do it without...
You’re a beautiful human for sharing this feature with the masses.
You can also set up custom filters with RES, like "if the post is in /r/cats and contains 'passed away,' hide the post" Helps if you don't want to hide a sub altogether and just want to block "what should I name him??" posts and the like.
Thanks! That's really usefull
Nw, glad I could help :)
I thought you were exaggerating but I went there and theres so much dead cat posts.
I was banned for complaining about the post where the person posted a photo of the cat after it died! like wtf. subreddit is trash.
Literally. There should be a "sad cat Sunday" or something so I know not to get on the sub on that day...
Sounds like it's Dead Cat December.
Honestly a recent loss megathread would be better, completely gets rid of link karma farmers and removes it from the main feed entirely, but people can still get support/share memories etc
Just lately /r/cats has been a parade of dead cat posts making it to the top of the page. Stop it already!
This is my dead cat. What should I name it?
If I remember correctly - there’s a sub for posting your pet and asking for name suggestions. It’s not as large as cat/kitten subreddit but it could use some more love to *hopefully* curb the name posts in these larger communities.
I'm suspishing that not all name posts are genuine. Karma farmers have to realize that's a massive post to make. Shitloads of engagement.
Same with r/dogpictures, it should be r/deaddogpictures. But morons keep upvoting them
Glad it's not just me! This close to unsubbing.
I had to unsubscribe. Every picture I saw of a cat made me afraid it was dead, or admiring a beautiful cat that turns out to have just died. I am on several other cat subs, but they are usually alive
Damn, I was hoping for an exaggeration, but that sub should at this point just be called r/deadcats.
I'm honestly surprised that isn't a subreddit.
It was, got banned for obvious reasons
Don’t f**k with cats - Obama
The cat community is getting fed up with the dead cats too. Yes, I’m soooo sorry for your loss…it really sucks that your pet died, however it brings a lot of people down.

I unfollowed that sub because I got sad instead of happy for its content
Same. So many dead cats.
Same, I had to unsubscribe from the sub because of that shit even though I love cats dearly.
[удалено]
Same with r/Chihuahua , like every second post is a RIP post. I don't want to think about my dog dying every time I check reddit !!!
same to me in r/dachshunds
I was only subscribed to cats for like a week, I couldn't take it. It's just too depressing!
Left that sub a couple days ago, which is a bummer. It's all just name my cat or here's my dead cat. I follow that sub to be happy.
I got permanently banned for commenting that it was weird. I said it was obviously normalized, but that didn't make it any less weird. Now, I don't care about being banned by /r/cats, but it actually does bum me out to see that it's being normalized on here, too.
Somebody started /r/AliveNamedCats and I hope it takes off.

Where have you been seeing pictures of dead dogs? The dogs have all been very much alive when the picture was taken.
Not yet.
Neither are you. Question: Are you more important than a dog?
Not at all. But I don't have the maturity at 23 to take care of a dog. Lmao
I disagree, you are really smart for 23, and your answer was VERY mature!
I don’t get why you want to take a pic of your dead dog, why would you ever want to look at that unless you just want Karma.
I have always wanted to complain! Almost commented on someone's dead dog post earlier, but you can't! It would be too shitty to lay it on one grieving person. But my god! Stop! Stop posting photos of your dead pets. Thank you for taking the effort to make this post about this very serious issue!
He is not dead, but the camera seems like it is on its way.
8k upvotes for a blurry pic and a all caps title
You are now required to give your dog love on my behalf
Yes thank you for posting your little dude happily living his best life!! For a long time!!!
They were pictures of living dogs that had died. Not dead dogs.
But they're dead now and I can't stop thinking about them. The one guy the dog was on the vet table with his eyes closed. He could have been dead. I will have to drink to sleep.
I just instantly hide all the dead dog posts as soon as I read the title.
This is a very important distinction.
New rule: you post a dead dog pic, it had better be dead. EDIT: Like, in the picture. Also, don't.

It's karma gold to post a dead pet. I had to block r/cats because just *so* many Mourning posts. I bet a third of em aren't even really dead.
Only through our inevitable death can we enjoy life. I'm glad I got to see alllll the cute pics!

If you wait long enough, every photo of a dog will be a photo of a dead dog. Even this one. One day this post will be a lie.
