A bountiful harvest!

How many cats go in the cat bed is for the cats to decide.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 59 points 1 month ago (5 children)

Every time I count I get a different number of cats.

[–] Notyou@sopuli.xyz 6 points 4 weeks ago

You're only technically correct!

[–] wax@feddit.nu 6 points 1 month ago (2 children)

There's a cat in the profile picture

[–] Diddlydee@feddit.uk 9 points 1 month ago

Which ain't in the bed

[–] Sculptor9157@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

But also the emoji for yet another at that rate.

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Add the 2-3 hypothetical cats mentioned... 5?

[–] Zwiebel@feddit.org 16 points 1 month ago (1 children)

You might have to practise counting

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Did it work?

I count 15 eyes

As I was going to St. Ives

I met a man with seven wives

Every wife had seven sacks

Every sack had seven cats

Every cat had seven kits

Kits, cats, sacks, and wives

How many were going to St. Ives?

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Fuck bud you lose me after the man.

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's a trick question; the answer is 1, the person going to St. Ives. 2,801 are going the other way.

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@piefed.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

But if you're only counting the

Kits, cats, sacks, and wives

Wouldn't that be zero?

Or is that just a distraction in the riddle?

[–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 month ago

It's just a reiteration of some of the elements of the riddle rather than a comprehensive list.

New religion discovered. "There was only enough cat bed for 2 or 3, but instead it held 8 cats"

[–] SoleInvictus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 4 weeks ago

And Catrick said "Mew! Mew! Mewwww!" for the bowl was half empty and he feared his people were soon to starve, but the Lord descended amongst them and in their generosity filled every bowl with a bounty of Tuna and Scallop Feast.

The Lord commanded the cats to scratch not the rug or the furniture, and to only shit in the box in the living room, and in return promised their bowls would never remain empty.

And it was good, until the next day, when this was all forgotten.

That little seal point Siamese face poking out is adorable! Looks like the face at the bottom on the right is a sibling.

[–] lolola@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 1 month ago

Sneaky surprise siamese <3

[–] MousePotatoDoesStuff@lemmy.world 24 points 1 month ago

Looks like it fits 2^3 cats.

[–] Luminous5481@anarchist.nexus 17 points 1 month ago

Looks to me like they’re winning at life

[–] sheepishly@fedia.io 16 points 1 month ago

Hit the jackpot

[–] BaroqueInMind@piefed.social 13 points 1 month ago

Cat-hydra type shit.

[–] FilthyShrooms@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago

Formerly "Cat King, Cold"?

That's what's called a passel. A soft & cuddly passel o' puss. Yup.

[–] Soggy@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Maybe? I don't see any clipped ears.

[–] BeardededSquidward@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Is the ear clipped thing universal or just certain parts of the world?

[–] Soggy@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

A brief search confirms it in the US, Ireland, and Greece so while I'm not confident in saying it's for sure universal it seems likely that areas with a TNR program for feral cats probably do it.

Didn't think it was. This might be somewhere like Turkey where they do have a lot of street cats who are generally taken care of as well. Can't say for certain but that there's a bundle of them not scattering away instantly when the poster shows themselves to them tells they are aware and comfortable enough around humans they aren't exactly feral.
