Fun fact : cats are corpuscular crepuscular. They are most active at dawn and dusk.

Their high energy time is our low energy time.

not to be that guy, but it's crepuscular. My cat is also corpuscular (quite fat), but that's on me.

Good catch. I'll correct the above.

and we keep waking them up for cuddles during their nap time so they keep waking us up for zoomies during our nap time

Cats are light sleepers and wake eachother up all the time. They don't mind it as much as humans do. Though to be fair, the natural rythm of humans is to wake up once in the middle of the night and then continue sleeping.

cats know what is best for us, they are like "WAKE UP HUMAN IT IS ALMOST FUCKING 3 AM WHAT ARE YOU DOING?"

Maalus@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 2y

Yeah, that's part of it. Since they are light sleepers and see you as clumsy kittens, then they expect you to be a light sleeper too. When you aren't waking up they get worried you died lol

Anti matter, that's also what destroyed the Egyptians, the cats were playing around with it and lost control.

I'm never sure if the 3am zoomies are my roommate or the cat.

banging the feeder with their hands

Where I'm from, cats have paws. (Also, I opt out of AI images showing human-handed cats, don't you dare)
