ᴮᵉⁿ ᴿᵒʸᶜᵉVOTE IN THE PRIMARIESThings that people who don't own #cats don't understand
The Sleight Doctor 🃏🍉@benroyce The first one means it vaguely tolerates you, and even quite likes you for about two minutes of every other Tuesday if you're lucky.
exactly
the first in human terms, the narrowed eyes mean "i'm going to fuck you up": anger, suspicion, disgust
but in cat terms it's "i am contented and relaxed"
the second in human terms is super kawaii cute, so much so that deadly nightshade that can be used to widen the pupils is also known as belladonna- beautiful woman, because medieval italian women used to do that
but in cat terms it's "i am going to fuck you up": maximum light inputs engaged for deadly precision
it's also weird that for humans bared teeth is a smile: it communicates happiness
but elsewhere in the animal kingdom bared teeth is pure aggression
ジギーくん@benroyce @ApostateEnglishman I often smile like that to show aggression. Ditto for "eye contact".
