My cat always looked at me like "if only you were smaller..."

- sscaryterry 20d agoI'd be getting scared when a cat reaches the 20kg threshold. I'm about 90kg, so thats a 4.5x ratio :) Cats are the perfect killing machines (apart from maybe sharks) :)
- WalterBright 20d agoThere's a bobcat that lives around here. He's on my porch now and then, and I also see its tracks in the snow. It doesn't look like it wants to be petted. I stay clear.
- jstrieb 20d agoMany people don't know that Craigslist has a "best of" which includes this (relevant) post that makes me laugh every time I read it: https://www.craigslist.org/about/best/ric/6881185958.html https://www.craigslist.org/about/best/ric/6881185958.html
- WalterBright 20d agoYep, a bobcat. But much smaller than the one around here.
- nunez 20d agoomg WHAT Where do you find this?!!??! This is GOLD!
- jstrieb 19d agoOn the Craigslist homepage (on desktop) there is a gray navbar on the left side of the screen. That area has a calendar and some group of links below it. The second group of links below the calendar includes "best-of-craigslist" link. https://www.craigslist.org/about/best/all https://www.craigslist.org/about/best/all I like that the Craigslist site design is utilitarian and hasn't changed much over the years. The downside is that stuff like this can hide in plain sight.
- nunez 18d agoBrillian! Thank you! I love Craigslist and am so glad that it's still around and hasn't been "modernized"
- FpUser 20d ago>"I'd be getting scared when a cat reaches the 20kg threshold" - most likely even 10kg cat will shred you before you could blink. They're insanely fast and surprisingly strong for size. Furry explosives they are
- TheOtherHobbes 20d agoAn angry cat in full fight mode will absolutely put a human in hospital, and the bites and scratches are teeming with potentially deadly bacteria. They may be unique - a super-successful predator that has persuaded a more dominant species to look after it by looking cute and feeling soft and making relaxing noises.

- fhe 20d agomy cat at its peak weight is about 8kg, and that's the size that i'd get a bit nervous around if i didn't know it's a tame housecat that runs away at sight of a mouse...
