If you’re trying to catch a housecat that’s gotten outside, don’t forget: they’re an ambush predator and you’re a persistence predator.
You have several times more endurance than they do – use that to your advantage!
Don’t run after them; that’s playing to the cat’s strengths, and vigorous pursuit may cause them to hide. Instead, follow them at a brisk walking pace until they get tired and need to have a lie-down, at which point you can simply pick them up and take them home.
Ok but no shit this tactic is what allowed humans to survive pre-civilisation
Some mammoth: *chilling, eating grass, mammothing*
What have you been rolling in, you dirty thing? *casually flips nature’s furry meat grinder on its side in slippery pit* TSK you even got mud in your toes, what a naughty beast
i am so confused that the puma is tolerating this
has it even heard of pumas?
look at the squinty eyes, it’s enjoying a nice grooming. :3
Can’t get this kind of treatment in the wild, after all. All cats love luxury.
