When this cat owner won a stuffed animal toy in a raffle at work, they thought it'd be a good idea to bring home the toy to their cat. The big catch here is that the toy looked identical to the cat, which resulted in the cat freaking out. It's just like if you've ever seen a cat catch their reflection in the mirror, and how they lose it; but even more terrifying with a plushy stuff animal that looks like them.

I suddenly hear my cat howling up a storm and look over to the bed and she is crying at the stuffed version of herself. She's picking it up by the neck, dragging it around, setting it down, staring into its lifeless eyes, and just crying nonstop

    cats - Text - I take it away from her but she doesn't stop howling. Her fur is all puffed up and her eyes look so scared. I think she thought it was a dead cat.I open the door to my room and she bolts out and starts cowering in the furthest corner of the apartment from my room. She won't let me near her. I feel like a villain. I love her more than anything and now she's fearing for her life. Tldr; I brought a stuffed cat toy home for my cat. She thought I brought her a dead cat and freaked out.

    cats - Text - dolly_haze_ 7h S 1 Award When I lost my first cat, my SO bought a plushie of her for me to keep in the living room so it wouldn't feel as lonely (I lived alone at the time as we were in an LDR and needed the "company") so l kept it on the back of an armchair where she used to sit, and for a year now my new cat has always treated her like a real cat, like never tried to walk over her or invade her space but will actually sit up next to her sometimes. One time I was working from my c

    cats - Text - danielkov 10h My cat does the same to plush toys that are a certain size and colour. It doesn't think it's a dead cat, but rather an unknown animal that could pose a threat, because it doesn't react to the threat the cat tries to present it will get scared that this unknown animal may be a superior predator, which is why it doesn't react to the cat Obviously this pisses off the cat. Just put it away and it will calm down and forget it ever happened. Chances are your cat is not mad
