That's clearly a siamese kitten. Return him to his family posthaste.

Face of "and I'd do it again"? 🤭

Cute cat. A bit bat eared.

Don't let Mocha hear you say that!

[-] atrielienz@lemmy.world 8 points 4 days ago

Mocha heard that and the fly on the other side of the country.

Keeping that cat from hearing something is an impossible task and you know it.

He'll grow into them...or he won't, but he'll be a beautiful boy either way ♥️

Edit: realised that Jasper is an asexual name 🤦

Edit 2: where the FUCK did I get Jasper from?

Yeah, they're really cute. The black fingernails are a nice touch, too.

Staff: What are you doing here?

Possum: Fuck you, I'm a cat! Feed me!

Staff: Okay then, let's hear you meow.

Possum: Hiss! See? I'm a fucking cat! Feed me!

Staff: That wasn't a meow.

Possum: Cats hiss! Now feed me, damnit!

Staff: Aren't you a little young to be swearing?

Possum: Cats are born knowing how to swear! Now feed me motherfucker, or I'll trash your kitchen!

I’ve heard that raccoons can be domesticated in the US, is it the same for these critters too?

(Possum? Opossum? - NFI, I’m Australian)

[-] MML@sh.itjust.works 15 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

You mean legally or factually, for the most part you have to have a license or be part of a wildlife rescue type group. Yes they can be quite tame though, same with any animal although domesticated is technically different.

[-] thatKamGuy@sh.itjust.works 7 points 4 days ago

Factually, just genuinely curious if it’s possible and/or somewhat common.

[-] Geldaran@lemmy.world 4 points 4 days ago

From what I understand... technically yes, especially if they're found young. But they do have a tendency of getting meaner/wilder when they reach maturity.

I’ve heard occasional stories of people with pet raccoons, but also have read stories of pet raccoons eating a baby’s appendages off. As with all pets, not to be left unattended with small children.

Raccoons in NA are toothy chewy adorable little ecosystem destructors

Crikey, as if I wasn’t sold on the idea already!

[-] MML@sh.itjust.works 9 points 4 days ago

Not surprised a cat would do this. They seem to have a knack for adopting other species

MUSHROOM no SNAKE no BADGER BADGER BADGER I don't think it's a BADGER BADGER BADGER

Russell the tiny cat who fights bats. That is my foe.

[-] Sturgist@piefed.ca 7 points 4 days ago

😭 We're so old ..........

[-] unemployedclaquer@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 day ago

What's funny is no one is mad at me for fucking all the wives

[-] Sturgist@piefed.ca 5 points 4 days ago

So in sync. Literally just replied the same thing

[-] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 5 points 4 days ago

😂 Noice. Now it's double badger badger badger. I remembered it so well cause I played Kingdom of Loathing back in the day and the Badger was one of the special pets of the month. They would give you mushroom after a fight and then you can go trip and adventure in special place for extra meat and items.......I'm old.

Anyone into KoL and haven't played West of Loathing should check it out. I need to buy the Shadows of Loathing sequel myself.
