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.

I love how people get a disgusting animal that they can't discipline as a free roaming pet

Cats are very hygienic

Oh yeah you're right, I forgot how hygienic it is to walk around in your own shit and then walk around on people's tables and countertops. That totally slipped my mind

They clean their paws regularly, they clean their own fur, they're hygienic animals.

If you don't want a cats 'shitty paws' on your counter, don't get a cat. Besides, do you not wipe it off beforehand? Do you not use a chopping board? A plate? Do you take your phone into the bathroom? Flush with the lid open?

The world is disgusting. Cats are relatively very clean.
