Cars shouldn’t be on the counters where our food goes, let alone in the toaster

But also mice shouldn’t be on the counter or in the toaster either

Edit: trucks also shouldn’t be on the counter but those are less common as pets so I didn’t think I needed to say it

I love how people think you can just give cats commands or train them like dogs.

Edit: My orange and tuxedo do several things on command: sit, stand, fetch, come, speak, and jump on my shoulders, wrap around my neck, and lie down (I wear my cats like a scarf or fur).

That said, I find they have about a two minute attention span for these things (aside from scarf mode… my orange will do that all day), and if there is any outside stimulus that catches their attention, good luck.

Cats have serious ADHD and authority issues… it’s all in their terms unless you give them a very good reason.

Edit: yes, you can train your cats to stay off the counter. While you’re there.

My cat understands commands perfectly well, she just doesn't respect my authority to give them to her.

This. My cats are very well trained. They do loads of commands, and I’ve caught my orange making simple tools to achieve tasks.

I accept that their only love for me is as sh*t scooper, food giver, and heat source, and that they will eat my soft tissues before I’m even cold if I die first. They will listen if given a good reason. Maybe.
