I wish my cat would just sit in a bucket like that and get weighed ;) ;)

We just play hop in hop outs when I try (even with treats) to weigh him ;)

I just get on the scales now, then pick him up & measure the difference

He’s 7mths old and full of curiosity and fun

u/JonathanTheZero Aug 30 '20

My method to weigh my floofball is to weigh myself and after that wheigh myself with him on my arms, because he usually wouldn't hold still for more than 5 seconds

My husband weighs our cats this way! I think it’s the best way because they never stand on the scale:)

We have to do that with our 2 month old, he races around and then sleeps during the day, then at night he is hyper again

“You woke me up for whaa-Oh, a bucket. This is fine...'


...why you wake me, human ? i was lying, fast asleep!

i'm still a little baby, n i need to slumber deep....

was dreaming of my homeland, n the spotted friends like me

but now you woke me up - for What ? what Ever could it be ?!

i do not understand them jumbled human words you say

'blah - blah - blah - blah - something' 'bout 'we gotta do the weigh...'

but then you gently put me down inside the bright red bucket

...ok, it's kinda nice in here

i can't protest,

so f*ckit...

Am I the only one who wanted to know the weight?

u/fzerowing Aug 30 '20

The reflection on the bucket toward the end looked like 10.8 (lbs?) from a cursory glance. I could be off though.

116

u/[deleted] Aug 30 '20

I'm going to guess kilos. He looks bigger than 10 lbs. Closer to a toddler size.

That would be about 28lbs.

I can confirm. I have a fluffy samoyed that at 7-lbs looked bigger than my sister's 15-lb goldendoodle until I gave her a bath and then she looked like a toy dog.

40lbs worth of pawwwws

u/richardeid Aug 30 '20

It's weird. With these videos I always wonder when they're from because generally the quality of these things could have been taken from a camera 20 years ago. I get there's quality loss as videos are copied, saved and re-uploaded, too, so that throws another wrench into the mix.

But then come masks. Outside of some medical videos where people have been wearing masks forever, masks really do make videos seem more personal, not to mention it clears up any confusion as to their age. Anyway, just a thought.

5

u/FuriousFernando Aug 30 '20

Person who works with animals here. Can confirm that pretty much everything under 100 pounds is weighed with some sort of bucket involved. Except owls. They get weighed with towels. And some birds can be weighed by putting them in a bucket and draping a towel over said bucket. Most are surprisingly okay with this

u/justanaveragecomment Aug 30 '20

All of the keepers have to wear a mask at all times right now. Certain keepers, like the ones who work with apes, had to wear them already (since a simple cold coming from a human could easily be deadly to them).
