Letting your cats outside is risky business. And we're not talking about them being in danger - because we already know that's possible, and some people choose to let their hooligans outside anyway. No, we're saying that the cats might bring that risk to the neighborhood. You don't know what the heck they do when you let them out. For all you know, your cat might be robbing supermarkets during the day - stealing sausages, or your cat might be visiting your neighbors - getting extra snacks from unsuspecting people, or your cats might be embarking on an epic romance worthy of novels or movies. 

In fact, without you knowing, behind your back, your cat… might become a legend in your neighborhood. And that's exactly what happened here. Can you imagine going out one day and realizing that your cat is famous? Because we can't, and we're sure that this person wasn't expecting it either.

    Font - Posted by u/Rye_Ch3 2 days ago Found out my cat is famous in the neighborhood Humor A few days ago we were asking around to see if any of our neighbors had seen our cat (it was super hot out and we were trying to find him to bring him inside), and that's how we found out that our cat visits almost everybody on our block every day.

    We imagine that you are already doing this, but please, we beg you to ask for some stories from your neighbors. How did they meet your cat for the first time? What did your cat do and what did it want? How did your cat become such a celebrity in your neighborhood without you even knowing about it? So many questions that need answers!

    Font - The second we mentioned him to anybody they got so excited, started asking what treats he liked, his name, etc, and apparently he's even been playing with kids on the block regularly and walking up to our neighbors whenever any of them are outside, he even goes over to the same houses at the same time almost every day.

    The most baffling part of this is that you didn't know that this was happening. What an insanely ridiculous surprise this must have been when you found out about this. We hope you have him treats afterward, even though he probably gets a bunch from everyone. He could have been terrorizing the neighborhood. Instead, he sounds like a good boy.

    Font - +2. 2 days ago Our neighborhood had this super friendly old man cat I call Disney because he looks like a cartoon cat with his giant blue eyes. I don't know who his humans are but he's well fed, well behaved, and never has a flea on him, so clearly he has a home. Turns out all the neighbors like him too and everyone has different names for him. Enjoy this picture of him trying to nap on my yard 00dlezOfN0Odlez

    Font - Invite Psychological8 2 days ago Let me introduce you to Mr. cheese. For a while there and we would play a game called "What does Mr. cheese smell like?" When he came home because it was always a mixture of God knows what. Cigarettes orange peels motor oil. He will walk up to a group of strangers, having conversation on the sidewalk and then plopped down right in the centre of them and then they awkwardly bend down, trying to figure out if he's hurt. He has been in probably every single o
