Have you ever visited r/cats?

I fall in love with those cats. So many beautiful crazy cats I wish I could hug them all.

I’m active on Reddit, but I think you’re going to have to explain the site. I doubt many people here use it.

I have not seen r/cats, but since I recently adopted one, perhaps I should. I spend most of my time on r/AskGaybrosOver30, a sub for gay men over the age of 30 which is the age of gay death. It’s an outlier in that the sub is heavily moderated to keep it civil and pleasant.

@Hawaii_Jake I’m no wiz at reddit either but all I know is r/cats is a very good safe site and you can see and learn so much stuff about cats. People ask about their cats and health stuff and others give good advise (as far as I can tell) It’s a nice place to see lots of cats in pretty and playful shots. You should check it out :)

Yes, I got hooked during a time when I had no cat.

I’ve noticed that there are many funny posts where people ask things about whether their cat is normal/ok, but it’s doing something completely normal. Some of them are serious new cat owners, and some are just joking.

Similarly, “what type/breed of cat is this?” but it’s an ordinary mixed breed, like almost all cats are.

Or, “what should I name my cat?”

Or, posts about their beloved dead cat.

Which has inspired the Reddit sub-group r/AliveNamedCats, as a counterpoint and/or way to avoid those posts, which I think is pretty funny.

I also subscribe to these other sub-reddits which feature cats, and which I’d recommend:
r/AngryCatPics
r/aww
r/BondedPairs
r/CatForts
r/CatFruit
r/CatsWithJobs
r/cromch
r/floof
r/FunnyAnimals
r/greebles
r/IWouldDieForNoodle
r/LazyCats
r/MildlyStartledCats
r/NoodleBones
r/NotMyCat
r/PoliteCats
r/TuckedInKitties
r/WhatsWrongWithYourCat
r/WhatsRightWithYourCat

I just found r/ntbdbiwdftc too (stands for “Not to be dramatic, but I would die for this cat.”),
