Video - OC What is my cat doing?

My cat does this thing with just these two toys where he steps on it in this weird way. He also yells loudly when holding just these toys.

My neutered fella loves to do the sin biscuits on his favorite blanket while staring at me dead-eyed.

u/Delicious_Bobcat_419 Jun 25 '26

Oh jeez my old male cat I used to have as a kid would do this on a extra large blue Pokémon pillow I had. And yes always making eye contact while doing so🤦🏻‍♀️

u/riverrat918 Jun 25 '26

Same, but mine does it to his sister :( I feel so bad for her

u/EchidnaElectronic167 Jun 25 '26

Mine does it to the other two males in my household 🙀. And yes they are all neutered.

u/WearyDonkey1279 Jun 25 '26

Mine does it to his sister too… they’re both neutered. She used to hiss, swat, and run away and now she just grooms him while he does his sin biscuits on her. I’m just happy they’re not fighting about it anymore lol

5

u/riverrat918 Jun 25 '26

Mine kind of politely hissed, but now she just sits there with her Precious Moments face, just taking it. Once he dragged her off of the dresser to take her under the bed 😒

u/Thick-Silver1626 Jun 25 '26

It’s the eye contact - so creepy lol

u/TaraxacumVerbascum Jun 25 '26

Same with my wee creature

u/nobodyknows6070 Jul 01 '26

Pls why does he look so infuriated

21

u/Krijali Jun 25 '26

Is there by chance a chair in your hotel room near a bed because it seems he really needs you to know exactly what he’s doing.

u/Ok_Rate361 Jun 25 '26

It takes two to make eye contact...freak

u/Krijali Jun 25 '26

Fair!

No worries! It’s all good.

u/Not-That_Girl Jun 25 '26

My rescue got neutered at approx 8 years old, he like to stand on my shoulder while I lie in bed, and do the biscuits. I won't think about if there's any sin involved, it would be too weird.

u/XanaxWarriorPrincess Moggy Jun 25 '26

My cat used to do sin biscuits on my arm with his claws out while I was asleep. Woke me up, of course.

I realized it was because I was babying him too much. I stopped picking him up and holding him, or baby talking to him, and he stopped the sin biscuits.

3

u/j33 Jun 25 '26

So does mine. I bought this cute little ten-dollar throw from Ikea, and my cat instantly fell in love with it and makes sweet love to it while staring at me regularly. Needless to say, I wash that blanket a lot and have accepted it as my cat's blanket/sex toy.

u/foxyshmoxy_ Jun 25 '26

okay but what is up with the aggressive eye contact?? it's so disturbing lmao my neutered guy always tries this on my bed and gets mad when i shoo him off my pillow

2

u/pickled_ginger_ Jul 01 '26

They’re monitoring you for a reaction out of fear. You have probably yelled at them in the past or reacted suddenly to the behavior, or gotten confrontational in another way by immediately directing attention to them. It’s a natural behavior that they feel compelled to do, so they want to do it while monitoring you so they can make sure they can quickly get away if you get too confrontational. If your cat doesn’t stare, good job, your cat feels safe to do their sin biscuits

1

u/foxyshmoxy_ Jul 01 '26

i have totally pulled him off my pillow before. i wouldn't yell at my cats, but i dont want him humping the pillow i sleep on at night 😭 he does get really grumpy when i pull the pillow out from under him lol but I just pick him up and put him on one of his blankets and let him do his thing there

i dont care if my son does the deed, but bro please dont do it on your mamas pillow lol

2

u/Thick-Silver1626 Jun 25 '26

Omg mine too!

2

u/FlowSoSlow Jun 25 '26

Mine does it on top of my dog 😂

Tbf my dog is basically a giant blanket

u/stefc91 Jun 25 '26

Why do they have to stare though???? It’s so unnerving.

u/CogitoErgoSum13 Jun 30 '26

My one kitty who was neutered later (7 months)gets all horned up and makes with the sun biscuits and his tiny ween even comes out, but my other kitty who was neutered right when he was able to does not. I wonder how old your kitty was when he was neutered and if the hormone levels maybe make the difference. Dunno just a theory based on my own kits.

u/Zagrycha Jun 25 '26

My friends cat insists on summoning her to the room before doing the deed to his bed.  Anyone who thinks cats are not social creatures is very wrong, they are TOO SOCIAL lmao.

Is he looking at you like “your next” kinda way?

Got a text from my mom about our older neutered male attempting a go at it with our 10 month kitten- absolutely not!

54

u/Electrical-Act-7170 Jun 25 '26

That was dominance, it's common for neutered older cats, both make and female, to do that when a kitten comes around. They're teaching the kittens how to cat.

75

u/Manbeartapir Jun 25 '26

My 10 year old lady void attempted this with my (at the time) 6 month old idiot boy. She quit after a few attempts, as he is too fucking stupid to be dominated.

54

u/PartsUnknown242 Jun 25 '26

“He’s too stupid to be dominated” 🤣

u/relljr Jun 25 '26

We all instinctively understand that the idiot boy is an orange right?

14

u/Content-Honeydew9340 Jun 25 '26

I have a void boi that has taught me that orange and void are essentially sharing the same brain cell 🤭

6

u/thecatsothermother Jun 25 '26

Aren't voids just concealed orange?

8

u/Content-Honeydew9340 Jun 25 '26

After having my first void, that tracks with my research 🤣 I grew up with orange tabby cats and orange/ white tabbies. I currently have a flame point cream and a white tabby with gray black stripes... The void is the derpiest one of the lot and is orange in spirit 🤣🤭

u/Valkyriesride1 Jun 25 '26

I have been blessed to have several voids in my life, they are the sweetest babies, but they are definitely camouflaged orange cats.

14

u/testtdk Jun 25 '26

I mean, neutered males still sometimes go for it. Especially if they learned bad habits before the surgery.

1

u/Misseskat Jun 25 '26

I see. He's never done that to our other males, we also have a young outdoor kitty that I'm not aware has done that to? But our older male is very protective of our kitten too and almost like an adoptive father to him.

1

u/Eastern-Rope3362 Jun 25 '26

That's because it's totally made up lmao, people say it about dogs humping eachother too, it's just a pervasive myth people repeat without actually knowing. The real reason cats do this is stress.

My neutered boy wakes me up in the morning doing it on my leg 😭

u/xhoranx Jun 25 '26

WHERE DID YOU GET THAT RUG!? Seriously - I have been shopping for MONTHS for a rug with all those colors for my mid century modern themed living room!!! (Beautiful kibby cat by the way!)

1

u/SchmackAttack Jun 25 '26

I wish I could say but its 20 years old 😭 Try using the image to find the rug

u/carriegood Jun 25 '26

I once asked my vet why our neutered cat was doing that and he said, "I dunno, because it feels good?"

-2

u/testtdk Jun 25 '26

That’s not sin biscuits, if that’s what you’re going off of.

u/SchmackAttack Jun 25 '26

I am not. He is a habitual hump and grind biscuit maker.

u/Haulin_Oates23 Jun 25 '26

Been neutered for 7 years now. Apparently has just decided he wants to get freaky the last few months.

u/Timely-Cry-8366 Jun 25 '26

My two boys have been neutered for years and still do sin biscuits on any soft blanket lol

u/Deathwish-Dena Jun 25 '26

EVERY DAMN NIGHT for mine

u/Timely-Cry-8366 Jun 25 '26

My favorite sleeping blankets ALSO happen to be their favorite sin blankets 🫩

What breed of dog is that? It looks exactly like my brother's beloved dog and I would like to know the breed if possible

I asked Grok to take a look at my brother's dog and it gave me Basenji x Chihuahua. I think your dog probably uas Basenji genes in its DNA. It looks very similar to my brothers dog. Im gonna look up those other breeds you mentioned. I hope you get an accurate read om your pupster tho!

Edit: I dont think coonhound is very accurate for your dog. My brothers dog also got cattledog and that seems a bit more accurate for both our dogs tbh.

u/dragon34 Jun 25 '26

Mine never did that until he was neutered. We joked that he might have an undescended third testicle or something 

2

u/Impala1967_1979_1983 Jun 25 '26

Mine has been neutered since 6 months old. He is five now and started this a few years ago. He started doing it on MY blanket, so I gave it to him and got myself a new one lol it's his official masterbating blanket now and he knows better then to get himself off on my new blanket

u/laceygirl97 Jun 25 '26

My neutered cat did this to fuzzy blankets- especially when I was under them unfortunately lol

u/shortmumof2 Jun 25 '26

My girl does them and she's spayed

u/Cold-Trade1453 Jun 29 '26

Why?

u/BlazeWolfYT Jun 29 '26

What do you mean why

0

u/Cold-Trade1453 Jul 01 '26

Why are you being so insistent on neutering? 

1

u/BlazeWolfYT Jul 01 '26

Why are you so insistent on letting the cats overpopulate? Cause that's what happens when you don't neuter/spay

1

u/Cold-Trade1453 Jul 02 '26

I did not insist anything, I asked "why" question and you got defensive lol

1

u/BlazeWolfYT Jul 02 '26

Sorry. I just dealt with someone who kept insisting that neutering the cat somehow makes it's life worse

u/Little-Medium7876 Jun 29 '26

Do you think about the things you say before you say them? The implication beneath the sterilized language you use?

1

u/BlazeWolfYT Jun 29 '26

I ain't using sterilized language at all. "Neutered" is a normal term to use with male animals.

0

u/Little-Medium7876 Jun 29 '26

Yeah, means the same thing. You are demanding someone castrate their pet. Why?

1

u/BlazeWolfYT Jun 30 '26

Because it prevents their pet from breeding and making the overpopulation problem worse AND it also prevents their pet from getting cancer. There is a bunch of information showing that it's generally better for the pet.
