If one were given the option to order a Stupid Cat or a Smart Cat, the vast majority would pick the Stupid Cat despite Stupid being bad.

  Why is stupid bad?

  Hang on a minute; "order", what's the scenario? restaurant?

  I have a very smart cat but he uses that intelligence to uh get my attention.

  He’ll groom himself in a mirror only to look at me in the mirror and be excited when he sees me when he turns around to come at me.

  He also likes to find ways to get my attention like getting in things or knocking stuff over or scratching things or sitting on papers or my laptop or things. If I have a pillow in my lap or my laptop he will also find every possible solution to get as close to me as humanly possible. He is also very careful about not scratching me when he is on me or I pick him up.

  He gets so annoyed and angry when I have a laptop or like block his approach in some way like just walking around or standing. Wherein he starts to run around and meow softly at me. Having zoomies and hiding in drawers or around corners when I’m walking around to just attack me with his softpaws to get my attention.

  I love him a lot.

  Didn’t you just post a question asking about this and everyone answered either neutrally or with the smart cat?

    Yup, just read the other post. No one picked stupid cat. Really weird behavior OP.

  I have one Brilliant Schemer and one Beautiful Idiot, and I wouldn’t trade either of them ♥️

  I mean, would you want a cat that tries to reverse engineer your thumbs?

  • nomorebillboards@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Nope.

  No, they wouldn’t. Nobody wants their cat to die through being dumb.

    I think cats might actually die more from being smart, i.e adventurous, and straying to places where no cat has ventured before

  Depends what the cat is for. If it’s indoor companion, then stupid cat. If it’s mouse hunter or travel cat - smart cat
