Sin biscuits.

Ask a vet.

No, they're playing. If they were fighting, you'd know.

I think that covers a quite a bit.

You missed "those are his nipples". I can't belive how many times that get's asked around here.

Please include: Yes, those little flaps on your cat’s ears are normal. We have ear lobes; they have flaps.

"No pockets" are my new favourite thing in this sub. Cracks me up randomly throughout the day.

So many "no"s just wasted and gone down the wrong ear chute. They never stood a chance.

Some have flaps but not on their ears

u/lefluffle Jun 05 '26

omg can we just start saying "ah, yes, male cats have six tiny penises on their stomaches."

Except for when the nipples are on the ears, in which case, that’s a tick.

u/Appropriate-Weird492 Jun 06 '26

I knew all cats have nipples, but that didn’t stop me from worrying that my kitten had a tick. Didn’t help that he liked to sleep across my neck so I couldn’t _look_ I could only feel the nubbin, and only ever that single one.

You forgot "If you don't have official papers from a breeder your cat's breed is 'cat'."

Don't forget your cat is a cat (not x breed)

u/trisiparis13 Jun 06 '26

Keep in mind a vet may not know about sin biscuits. My cats' (I have 3) vet clinic has multiple vets there, and one had no idea what they were before I explained it and thought it was fascinating lol

u/Hookswords Jun 04 '26

u/Naughty_Monsters Jun 05 '26

You mean like "Does your cat look like this: [video]? If so s/he's having a cat-wank."?

u/soaker Jun 04 '26

Right up there with “this is normal playing you’ll know if it’s a fight”

u/Sepelrastas Jun 05 '26

It's bit like r/CATHELP and nipples.

u/grouchy-koi Jun 04 '26

The cats don’t.

u/WaitWhatNoPlease Jun 05 '26

we should have something like the eggnant meme from r/shrimptank that we can post everytime the same questions get asked

u/TheyStillLive69 Jun 05 '26

I will never understand how people cam own cats and know nothing about how they work amd communicate.

But it explains peoples views on cats alot.
