I dunno, I kinda like watching the chaos

For now

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago

Nah it's fun because of how stupid it is.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

YES I DO, GODDAMN IT!

Easy. Come up with some insane pet feeding scenario, and then assume you saw someone on YouTube vouch for it. Enter discourse. Ensure to present your theory by first saying "I don't know what a cat actually is, but...". Then slowly slide your audience into your scenario about how people in Florida have kept alligators alive by feeding them rotten boat parts with just the right algae and moss on it.

Studies say that cats can survive just fine if you paralyze them and they inject them with nutrients fluid. Super convenient tbh.

I have heard of studies 🤔

"Show me the fucking udder on a strawberry" is one of the greatest punchlines in the history of the medium, if not all of humanity 🤣🤣🤣

Ok let me set the ball rolling: Do you think cats should be fed vegan only diet?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

I'm not a vegan but I do wonder if given the correct supplements would it really be so bad?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

All jokes aside, the consensus seems to be it can be done, but would require regular visits to the vet and testing the cat's urine etc, and even then this would be very experimental.

Realistically, the answer is no.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

Good luck with having to take cats to the vet regularly. They loooove it🙄

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

It's their second favorite thing, right after vegan cat food!

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

With the correct supplements you can feed a human literal shit as well.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 weeks ago

Yes. It would be literal torture and the poor cat would have no idea why it's being horribly abused.
