Edit: Im asking because I'm currently going through some serious depression and I've been forgetting stuff lately. I wake up every morning with a panic attack, I am too tired to do anything. I barely had any appetite to eat. I just wanted to see if I'm the only one. Hearing stories from others makes me feel less alone.

Sorry if I sound pathetic af, I'm just sad

Edit 2: I'm gonna mark this as NSFW because the potential very traumatic stuff.

Haha so deep in thought. He must’ve been really invested in whatever you were watching together. A couple of our cats will catch sight of something on the TV and get fixated. Splooty Mac likes to try and grab stuff too with his big mittens.

We have a smaller TV mounted by their cat tower that I’ll often put 8-10 hour cat videos on from YouTube.

That's amazing! You know sometimes I feel like my cat is trying mimic my behavior. When I moved in here, he started scooping his kibble and eating out of his paw. And for awhile when I was teaching myself how to roller skate, I'd catch him trying to like slide across the kitchen floor!

And is that cat named Mac too?? Mine's named Macaroni but I call him Mac for short.

Lmao so his name is Mac, yes… and we call him Macaroni all the time 😂. What are the odds?

The kitchen floor story lmao. I’m picturing a cat sliding around on its tummy. I’ve seen cats do similar, or they’ll lay on their side and pull themselves around by the paws on the side of a couch or something.

I wonder that sometimes. We have another orange cat named Momo and I say his name all the time. When he meows, he always does a dual meow that sounds vaguely like “Momo”. It makes me wonder if he’s meowing in the same way his name sounds.

Last time I took mine to the vet there turned out to be someone else there who also had a cat named Macaroni! I didn't realize it was such a common cat name.

I have hard wood floors so he'd speed up and then I'd see him stop and just ride the rest of the way out sliding on his paws and belly. I wish I could have caught him doing it but when he sees my phone he gets upset and meows at me lol
