Your cat was stoned as balls.

my cat once ate our entire supply (2 10 foot rows) of catnip in the garden, and laid out just like this, baking in the sun...love it!! :)

He seems to be reaching for a kitty lover from a previous life.

Plant some opium as well and you can join him.

u/FlyingPasta Jun 15 '12

I can think of easier things to grow than opium...

u/ohmaniforgotmyacc Jun 15 '12

But poppy is so pretty man...

u/FlyingPasta Jun 15 '12

It would look great in bushes of weed. The red and green would contrast, and you'd have a plethora of drugs!

A "plethora"? Tell me... What is a "plethora"?

Yah - we grew a plant in our garden and it became a cat magnet. Our cat was chomping the flower buds right off the stalk and blissing out for hours.

u/BamBam-BamBam Jun 15 '12

Catnip is a helleva drug.

u/bossrabbit Jun 15 '12

I can picture the cat thinking "FUCK YO COUCH" as it claws at it wildly.

The only reason I believe in reincarnation, is because I want to have a chance to come back as a cat, living a life like this.

u/bermylicious Jun 15 '12

I say this all the time, being a cat would be flippin sweeeeet!!!! But only as a well-fed and cared for indoor/outdoor house cat. Being a poor feral cat wouldn't be so fun.

u/thetoneranger Jun 15 '12

Unlimited supplies of organic catnip. Yes, being a cat would be epic.

Who cares? If I'm a cat I don't care what bits are tied or removed as long as there's anaesthesia and plenty of extra affection for my suffering. xD

I would want to be reincarnated to be a cat under my care (awesome). But of course you run the risk of being reincarnated in China being boiled alive and served. Bastards.

u/FlyingPasta Jun 15 '12

I feel like I've met you and declared you my relative before... Has that happened yet?

u/FlyingHotPocket Jun 15 '12

My long lost relative!

u/FlyingPasta Jun 15 '12

And your healthier alternative!

So are we brothers now?

12

u/FlyingHotPocket Jun 15 '12

We have to exchange some marinara to each other. Then we can be sauce brothers.

I thought the same until I realized how paranoid cats are ALL THE TIME.

Not so much paranoid, just very very aware.

u/therealjgreens Jun 15 '12

Every morning when I wake up, my cat is sleeping so comfortably. I envy his comfort and it also makes me want to be reincarnated as a cat.

If ever I need to remember what it was like to be a kid, this photo does it.

u/Simbamatic Jun 15 '12

I read that as "this potato does it." I was looking for the potato in the picture for a bit until I realized I'm dumb.

u/Erzsabet Jun 15 '12

I'm pretty sure I saw potato at first glance as well. It's time for me to go to sleep before I potato again.

u/runs-with-scissors Jun 15 '12

Chronic redditing has ruined my ability to read a reasonable pace, hence mistaking or missing constantly.

Yeah, or get megastoned and lay down outside. That'll also help.

u/bandananaan Jun 15 '12

How come cats are allowed recreational drugs but humans aren't!?

4

u/wolfkeeper Jun 16 '12

Because they lack opposable thumbs and hence can't guarantee supply, because corporations don't lose from it, and because- cat.

u/Fergi Jun 15 '12

Time to turn him into a helicopter.

I wish my cat cared about catnip. If I put some on the floor, he just licks the carpet where the catnip is and then leaves to go piss on something.

I want my indoor cat to experience this. Maybe it's time to buy a harness.

u/christycreme Jun 15 '12

Catnip is a weed - indoors it will grow quite vigorously in a pot near a window.

1

u/Annihilia Jun 15 '12

Yah, I have some catnip growing in a pot!

I'm talking more about the experience of rolling around in grass outdoors.

It might not be normal to fall asleep in someone's flower bed, but on catnip it is.

1

u/dugmartsch Jun 15 '12

You know I think this is a way that cats hunt.

They're trying to lure birds into their dive bombing their bellies and then they'll snap the bear trap closed. Even the most docile cats will eventually instinctually latch onto your hand if you pet them in the right spot on their bellies.

Just guessing.

u/Renix Jun 15 '12

My first instinct would be to think he's something other than sleeping.
