I recently got a kitten and he is all about water, he even climbs in the sink to drink water! I am going to have to get him a kiddie pool in the spring, including a photo for the cat tax, his name is Galileo!

That is one top shelf cat

Cute lil fella :3

[–] Bebo@literature.cafe 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Oh he's such a cutie pie in his little hoodie.

[–] bigredgiraffe@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Haha yeah he seems to love it, he also doesn’t seem to care about wearing a harness so possible future adventure kitty woo! I should post more pictures of him on here hah.

If I ever get a cat (hopefully), then I hope it‘s gonna have that kinda zen personality

Saying that out loud is the quickest way to curse yourself to be adopted by the most chaotic till fur gremlin imaginable.

[–] spacecowboy@sh.itjust.works 9 points 10 months ago

Which is still a wanted addition to all of our lives!

Tribute that is how cat chaos works. My family had a lot cats. I only hadn two over 25 years.. One killed dogs and bats for fun, one was called velcro, because they never jumped, only climbed. Velcro loved water. We could literally turn the hose on and spray him and he loved it. He would walk into a shower or bath.

... is this AI or am I crazy?

[–] BluesF@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Yes. Check out the mega duck top centre of panel 4.

I clocked it straight away... Just something off about panel 3. But this one you really have to look to spot the actual errors. Amazing that my brain somehow knew it wasn't right even before I could figure out why.

Is it AI...? There's a separate pic of the same cat and rubber ducks do come in different sizes, especially if you're aiming for novelty.

I could be wrong, but there are many small details. By "mega duck" I meant there's what seems to be a mutant mound of ducks in the background haha, they all blend into one. There are various weird duck faces, too...

In the one you've linked... What are those things in the background? Top left of the image. Are those sockets? Are cats usually still fluffy underwater, or they go slick like a dog? Idk, I'm not convinced this is real.

[–] ChaoticEntropy@feddit.uk 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Weird rubber duck faces are kind of a rubber duck thing.

Considering the bath has a TV screen, I assume it is something electronic but it is too blurry to see. You can have sockets for shaving gear or something more specific. It all looks very Japanese.

Under water hair splays out and floats/waves in the water as pictured, out of water it is slick.

Nothing really leaps out in these pictures to me that says "that's impossible" rather than just unclear due to angle and picture quality. If anything the degree of consistency between each of the separate images gives me more cause to think it is real.

[–] BluesF@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

You might be right, actually, I stand corrected! After some hunting I did manage to find this as far back as 2019, and I don't rememberAI image gen being that good back then. Must just be the jpg making it look funky.

[–] luluApples@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

I swear I've seen these 4 panels but with a different animal before. I can't put my finger on it ..

[–] mr_robot2938@lemmy.world 11 points 10 months ago

Calling /u/fuckswithducks.... oh, wrong site.

[–] Okokimup@lemmy.world 10 points 10 months ago

The only reason I can think of for having that many rubber ducks is that you are, in fact, Alex Horne.

[–] poVoq@slrpnk.net 8 points 10 months ago

Cold outside and warm water makes it easy to convince them to change their minds.

[–] evanuggetpi@lemmy.nz 8 points 10 months ago (1 children)

The cat's dilated pupils tell another story

[–] FlihpFlorp@lemm.ee 4 points 10 months ago

I’m OOT on this mind explaining it

My cousins have a cat and his pupils go wide when he’s sees a toy but doesn’t want it like if he’s napping or something
