New Study Shows That Cats Are Intentionally Being Assholes Like We Always Suspected
(WBEZ)–Researchers in Japan set out to answer the question: Can a cat understand the difference between its name and any other random word that sounds like it?
Research on cats is slim compared with research on dogs. That may be because cats can’t be bothered to participate in the experiments. But in a study published Thursday in the journal Scientific Reports, Japanese researchers devised a way to get results whether or not the cats cared to cooperate.
Researchers conducted a series of experiments in which a person would speak four different words and then say the cat’s name. According to the study, the words chosen were “nouns with the same length and accents as their own names.” If the cat acted differently when it heard its name, the scientists would know that the cat could distinguish its own name from other words.
In any case, the results were clear: Most of the cats moved their head or ears in response to hearing their name. The results, researchers said, showed that the cats could identify their own names among other, similar words.
Oh you don’t fucking say!! Your cat knows it’s name, it just doesn’t give a FUCK that you’re calling it. Cats are the worst. And that is why this study is a complete waste of time. Whether or not cats can know it’s name doesn’t change the fact that every cat ever born has been a sonofabitch. It doesn’t care about you like your dog does. A cat in your house would absolutely kill you in your sleep if it knew it could eat your dead body for sustainance. Anyone who says differently is wrong. It’s not cat people’s fault that they’re crazy. You know whose fault it is? The fucking cat’s. Why? Because they poisoned the air with their parasitic shit and you breathe it in and go insane. Facts.
Cats using biological warfare like the sneaky little fucks that they are. SMH. A dog would never do that. A dog will come when you call and won’t put anything in your brain except for endorphins from loving you so much. Just look at this face
He just wants to cuddle and not poison my brain like a good boy
