Many times throughout our cat-owning lives, we've heard people say things like: cats don't understand anything, cats are dumb, they can't be trained, they don't know anything. But they're wrong. If you're a cat owner, you know they're wrong. Sure, some cats are kinda dumb. And that's amazing and beautiful and valid, and dumb cats deserve love too. But other cats! Other cats are so smart it's ridiculous. They're conniving, they use their cuteness shemelessly, and they will find any way that they can to get anything and everything that they want from you.

That includes, apparently, faking an injury. The cat in this thread is such a drama queen. This conniving little thing sits outside the door, pretending to have an injured paw in the hopes that the people inside will let her in, and when they do - because of course they do - immediately, the kitty puts her paw down and walks as if nothing happened.

    Honestly, we're not sure we would have believed this if we hadn't seen it with our own two eyes. We hear all the time about how smart and manipulative cats can be - heck, we have one of those hooligans ourselves - but we have never seen such a clear (and absolutely hilarious) example of it.

    Now, we wanna know if this is something that happens on a consistent basis or if this was just a one off - one time thing kind of deal. And if it does happen often, as we suspect, based on the people's seemingly unsurprised reaction in the video, then we demand more footage of this. We demand it. Please.

Cats have no concept of deception to manipulate human actions. Genuinely, if she's limping, there's a truer reason. 7:05 PM - Mar 2, 2023 7,395 Views
