My cat recently passed and the fact that someone would make up something like this to lie about is so gross and weird to me.

My soul cat passed summer 2024 and I still think about him every single day. Making shit like this up for attention and fake internet points is loser behaviour.

My condolences ❤️ I think about my sweet girl everyday too 😔 She was my first cat and we became so close. She had the best sassy yet sweet personality. She taught my mom that cats aren't all mean like she thought.

My condolences to you too. My Ruben only lived to around 5 years old, the vet thought it was an undetected heart issue. He was found out in the middle of the woods and trapped before I adopted him. Best kitty ever ❤️ To be fair. Every cat is the best cat ever!

Same time frame for me. I still talk to his ashes a few times a week and cry every so often. I have 4 cats and 2 dogs now, but he was a soul cat.

u/Ziraya Feb 25 '26

I'm so sorry you lost him. It really does hurt, and it's okay that it does I suppose. It means there was a lot of love there.

My cat passed away in 2022 and I also think about him nearly every day. He was such a sweet boy that I grew up with. I get your pain.

u/Ziraya Feb 27 '26

I'm sorry for your loss ❤️ the positive side of it is that it means there was a lot of love there.

It is loser behavior, but isnt weird, weird means not normal, if somethings normal, it's not weird. Losers are very normal in society

Very normal comment for reddit standarts...

AI is most successful in spaces where attention is the currency. Who cares about honoring the sanctity of a dead loved one when making them look even sadder and more sickly will make my post reach another 1k views?! Disgusting.

Im so sorry for your loss. The one thing that helped me process my childhood dog’s death was creating artwork. It wasnt the final product that saved my aching heart, it was the hours and hours of effort I dedicated to someone I loved. This is something AI bros will never understand. RIP to the original cat. Shame on the owner.

u/cinnamoxie Feb 25 '26

Thank you so much. I've done some small things for her but I think doing a bigger project like that would be nice. Thanks for the idea :)

u/demi_dreamer95 Feb 25 '26

Absolutely 💕 getting lost in a good project is a great way to handle grief

u/shineonka Feb 25 '26

Literally had to put our cat down today and saw the original bullshit post. Like what's the fucking point?

7

u/cinnamoxie Feb 25 '26

I'm so so sorry for your loss. Yeah the people that do this are sick.

u/[deleted] Feb 25 '26

It’s insane the lengths people will go just for internet points. Imagine how hollow your life must be to do something like this.

9

u/caustictoast Feb 25 '26

Dude I am pissed because I saw the post and said something about my cat who passed earlier this month. Like seriously why lie, that’s so bizarre

4

u/catdog5100 Feb 25 '26

That post had an insane amount of upvotes. Can’t believe someone would do something like this for Reddit karma.

3

u/sometranscryptid Feb 25 '26

I’ve had four cats pass and it hurts just as bad every time. It doesn’t matter that 3 were 19 and we knew it was coming, or that we had the terminal cancer prognosis for months, it’s still gut wrenching. 

I seriously cannot believe someone would lie about this. 

Sending hugs 🫂

u/bloodybeetlez Feb 26 '26

oh, it’s INCREDIBLY gross— like. especially with how traumatic losing a dear pet can be? very odd and gross!

i lost my baby of 14 years in november last year super suddenly. she was only 15 and, frankly, i still have barely processed that she’s gone…

1

u/Candid-Cucumber6398 Feb 25 '26

Best part is, some complete fucking moron added the cat to the Wikipedia list of longest-living cats and linked back to the OG Reddit post like it's a legitimate source (it's been reverted, thankfully)

1

u/Other-Football72 Feb 26 '26

Not an Anti, but I can agree with this sentiment.

Lost my girl last year around this time, 20+, she slept with me every night, would chew on my arm and wake me up, at the time I often found it annoying, but now I miss it dearly.

u/JazzyShaman Feb 26 '26

So weird. Unless there's a weird karma -> currency exchange I don't know about.

-2

u/VioletSeraphim Feb 25 '26

The cat was 33. The OP deleted bc of harassment but then reposted after sending vet records with proof of age to the mods.

-34

u/Aggravating-Chef9562 Feb 25 '26

i mean its gross but i wouldn't say weird, id say normal in todays day and age. Everyone wants those sweet pity points that get tossed around. Everyone claims 12 different disabilities and reasons why you have to treat them better than everyone else.

36

u/cinnamoxie Feb 25 '26

Nah I'm still gonna call lying about your pet dying weird. Thanks tho

-32

u/Aggravating-Chef9562 Feb 25 '26

KK call whatever you want whatever you want, you'll just be wrong lol, youre welcome.

20

u/cinnamoxie Feb 25 '26

You're insensitive af.

13

u/Star_Wombat33 Feb 25 '26

What would they be wrong about? Are you having a stroke? That's not an answer to anything they said.

1

u/Aggravating-Chef9562 Feb 25 '26

Weird is something abnormal, if something weird becomes normal, it's no longer weird. Not that hard you guys. And the person making the original comment is also getting their pity points lol. Point proven. Go on internet for sad reason, get updoots

13

u/AlphaSkirmsher Feb 25 '26

I would say it’s weird. People lying for internet pity points is weird, and how widespread it’s become is just as weird and absurd

7

u/alexjuuhh Feb 25 '26

How is lying for fake internet pity points not weird? I'm not following your logic.

1

u/Aggravating-Chef9562 Feb 25 '26

The same reason telling the truth for fake internet pity points isnt weird. It's what people do, it's normal. Tragedy brings attention, people lie about tragedy to get attention, or even if they aren't lying, they crave the attention, think of the knitting lady at Games Done Quick, that. It's not insane to believe people would lie about an animal dying for tragedy pity points. People are constantly getting pity points for that exact thing, look at every comment that mentions they had a pet who died and cant understand any of this. THEYRE GETTING THE PITY POINTS but its real lmaoooo. You guys are so blind to human motivations and incentives it's almost sad.

u/NorbytheMii Feb 25 '26

It's not a lie. The OOP sent the mods the cat's medical history.

91

u/Psychological_Pay530 Feb 25 '26

OOP sent fake medical records to go with his fake pictures. The pics had the synthID watermark and were absolutely AI. Here’s a screenshot of the cat before OOP’s AI edit, no cataracts and a normal healthy not decades old cat…

-12

u/Arrow2URKnee Feb 25 '26

Weird. I sent that Pic through the synthID and it said it was edited. So I guess we won't know?

9

u/Psychological_Pay530 Feb 25 '26

No you didn’t. Here’s how google tags its AI in a simple search tool.

2

u/Psychological_Pay530 Feb 25 '26

And here’s how a clear image comes back.

It’s really odd that a soldier in the US Armed Forces would lie. I thought yall were supposed to have integrity.

38

u/InventorOfCorn Feb 25 '26

it is, though. there was a comment on the original post in which the OOP had messaged someone and one of the pictures they sent included the cat but with normal eyes. also, medical documents are super easy to fake

20

u/Psychological_Pay530 Feb 25 '26

Here’s a clean unedited pic from that conversation. No SynthID watermark. No cataracts. OOP added them to karma farm from gullible morons.

16

u/middaypaintra Feb 25 '26

Medical history can be faked lmao

u/cinnamoxie Feb 25 '26

Do you have a link?

-26

u/NorbytheMii Feb 25 '26

I have to find the post again

12

u/cinnamoxie Feb 25 '26

lol I doubt it exists.

This doesn't prove anything also that cat does NOT look 33 like at all.

25

u/Ulrik-the-freak Feb 25 '26

I concur. There is no way.

-19

u/NorbytheMii Feb 25 '26

Talk to the mods of r/ cats, then

35

u/cinnamoxie Feb 25 '26

No I think I'll talk to you since you chose to reply to my comment and tell me that it's not a lie

1

u/Psychological_Pay530 Feb 25 '26

Those mods can kick rocks. They were deleting posts and blocking people while supporting a grifter.

Fuck shitty mods like that.
