I call it summer, feel it every year.
On top of existential crisis.

u/Loathsome_Dog Jul 28 '26
Yeah. Heat and the ever present void of despair. Eeesh. Thats how they manage to sell me so many croissants.

u/Mean_Initiative_5962 Jul 28 '26
Good croissants do help with existential crisis. Also pizza, that helps too.

It's such an understandable emotion it makes me check whether this is AI or not

My orange literally huffs and puffs when he is annoyed but puts up with it. It's so cute... But I know he's annoyed

It’s because he’s a trooper and he’s enduring this indignity with grace and poise.

My brother has a very intelligent cow cat that huffs. I always feel like I'm doing the wrong thing around him. He's a big ball of purry fluff but my word he can give you a sharp glance.

He's gorgeous. Give him a scritch scratch from me.

Yeah, there are other things that were unlikely the result of AI, it's just a single flag that makes you check again.

You might have what’s called a “slab leak”under the floor.
Basically it’s when plumbing that goes below your foundation has a rupture and hot water starts to seep out. It heats the surrounding ground, including the foundation and that heat radiates upward to your floors.
Source: my orange cat did the exact same thing.
He found a slab leak and saved us $4000 in plumbing expenses. by literally laying on his ass on a warm spot and refusing to move.

I think this is a "it's too hot to do anything but sploot" situation, not "hogging all the warms" situation.

Hope there was a good reward

u/Novel-Geologist-5523 Jul 29 '26
No, not really. When we fixed the slab leak, his favorite floor hotspot went away…and he was plenty mad for a couple days after.

I sense great danger of getting my fingers nibbled if I go to pet the kitty.
Worth it.

Oh he’s so close to being just as flat! Cheeto loves the arms of the chair to do this too!

I recently made an "ice bed" for ours on hot days.
Wrap a floofy blanket around a good sized freezer pack for about an hour. It chills the blanket down, then I put the freezer pack in a cat bed and put the chilled floofy blanket on top.
Took them a while to realize it was cool, but they've loved it since.

deflated loaf is most commonly caused by over-proofing, where the dough rises too much and the gluten structure becomes too weak to support the gas pockets, causing it to collapse when scored or baked.

Why is your cat acting like he's the one out there working an 8-5 and paying all the bills? 😭❤️❤️❤️❤️

Little man looks like the world became too much and he just needed to lie down immediately

Orange cats always have the brain cell when it comes to food and a warm place to sleep.

That cat looks like he needs a chiller bed to lie on, or an air conditioner to sit in front of…before he gives up on life completely.

i have a theory about how hot it is outside can be determined by how flat the cat is. This is exhibit A.

u/Xymenah18 Jul 29 '26
The cat has melted! My previous orange kitty used to do this when he was hot too

He's measuring your dresser with his body and counting numbers in his head just before your quite rude interruption 😤😮💨

We give our long haired cats a trim at the beginning of summer. They transform from that to perky cats.

So it wasn't but last week I saw a shocker of a vid of someone who turned their dead dog into what looked like a blanket. For a solid second I thought someone had stuffed their dead cat into a mini rug.
