, and my dog only liked my cousin. Did I do something wrong, or were they just plotting against me? Anyone else’s pets act like this?
Haha, that actually makes a lot of sense. He probably bribed them with snacks while I was out here trying to earn love for free. No wonder they chose him every time.
I don't know about dogs. It's common with cats, they avoid contacts.My cat would run away like I was a monster
lol this is the strategy I would use if I was your cousinHaha, that actually makes a lot of sense. He probably bribed them with snacks while I was out here trying to earn love for free. No wonder they chose him every time.
Yeah, that actually explains a lot. I definitely made the mistake of trying too hard with the cat. No treats, no patience, just pure desperation
LOL fair enough, that’s a solid strategy. I can’t even be mad anymore, I respect the hustlelol this is the strategy I would use if I was your cousin
That’s a fair point. Looking back, it was probably more confusion than hate on their side. I just like to blame my younger self because it makes the story funnier
Haha true, treats fix everything. I guess I was trying the “love and hugs” method for free and it totally failed
Haha, that makes sense! I was taking it way too personally. Clearly, my cousin just leveled up in the treat gameThey're not plotting, just opportunists! lol
Usually it's not personal, pets often bond with who feeds or plays with them most consistently. Your dog liking your cousin might just mean your cousin has better treats or more playful energy
This + let's face the truth: Some cats have a cunty behaviour, no matter if premium whiskas or not =)
Yeah, I get that now. I was just overthinking it as a personal rejection, turns out I just need to step up my treat and play game
Haha, exactly! I was the unlucky one they “ignored by default”
At least I wasn’t their favorite… just their human practice buddy.Haha, so true! Some cats just come with that “attitude included” setting, no matter how many treats you throw at them
Don’t worry, you didn’t do anything wrong… unless you forgot to pay them in treats. That’s always their loophole)My cat would run away like I was a monster
Women same, but somehow men think that throwing all the responsibility on us (ie zero fun) is the way to go, then they wonder why we don't give a fuck.
Haha, that’s probably it. I missed the treat payments and they instantly found a loophole
lesson learned.Honestly, that’s a fair comparison. If everything turns into responsibility and zero fun, the connection dies. Effort, balance, and actually enjoying time together matter way more than just dumping duties and expecting interest.
Yeah, true. Sometimes there’s no deep reason at all. Pets just do weird stuff and we try to overthink it like it’s personal
Haha no, pets don’t hate us. They just act like they do sometimesMy cat would run away like I was a monster
. Pets bond on comfort and energy, not fairness. Totally normal.
