About Dogs and Cats and their Buddies.

THE reliability of information on Facebook can vary widely, as it may include misinformation, rumors, or biased content. Whatever the case, people seem to know you already by asking who you voted for in the last presidential election. Then their life lightens up because now they know how to insult you. Uh huh. 📱💻📲

WHY do dogs love to fetch balls? Their ancestors possessed skill in hunting, and they have passed down this instinct through generations. With their round shape and ability to roll and bounce, balls trigger a dog's prey drive. The act of chasing and retrieving a ball taps into their natural instincts. A sense of fulfillment and satisfaction. But since cats talked a lot with dogs these days, offline and online, dogs finally realized the dumbness of fetching balls. As cats told them. 🐕🏐🐕

A CAT’s acute sense of hearing allows him to hear subtle sounds, including a weird disembodied voice coming from your cell phone. While Kitty might recognize some voices, it's not likely she'll understand the concept of long-distance communication. That is weird because cats did invent the first known telephone prototype. 🐈👂🐈‍⬛

WHY are cats so obsessed with birds? Whether cats love to watch birds because they're prey or simply because the movement captures their attention, some cats can spend hours observing birds every day. Lately, Fizz is into Ornithology or the study of birds that is why she watches bird videos a lot. You see, birds are found worldwide, and roughly 10,000 species are known to exist. Fizz has been exchanging bird photos with my friend Reuel in Manila via Facebook, I found out. 🐱🐦🐱

SHARING your lip balm or lip moisturizer with another person, including your romantic partner or sexual partner, is a bad idea, says dermatologists. Sharing these products increases your risk for contracting cold sores, which are caused by herpes simplex virus (HSV-1). You get it? But yes you may French-kiss your partner anytime. 💋💄💋

SOMETIMES cats like to feel hidden away, so they'll seek out spaces where they can survey their territory with little to no threats of intruders like dogs or children. That’d be Fizz The Fizz. She doesn’t want to be disturbed, especially when she’s busy writing some analysis of something like DNA traces that she collected or intel from CCTV of the backyard and side yard. With Ching The Zing, it’s okay to bother her–as long as you give her a few minutes of back rubs. 🐈🛖🐈‍⬛

CATS believe that they are in charge of you, not the other way around. Cats emanated from Shinobi proper in 15th century during the Sengoku period in ancient Japan. They train warriors as spies and mercenaries and scratch DJs, too. 🐈🥷🐈

ME and Cyd The Koolcat then used to not miss Jeopardy! for many years. Until Alex Trebek died in 2020. For a bit, we watched Ken Jennings and Mayim Bialik as hosts, fine. But media-induced drama took over + new, silly “special events” cut the excitement momentum of the regular games, so I quit. Now the only show/s on regular TV programming that I watch are sports and “Naked and Afraid.” Uh huh. Fizz and Ching are into cat and fish soap operas on YouTube. 👎😾📺

THE most popular reindeer is undoubtedly Rudolph. Introducing the most famous reindeer, Rudolph! The "Red Nosed" reindeer, who is probably everyone's favorite. Everyday, he gets more than a million clicks, with millions more followers on his X/Twitter, Instagram, and TikTok accounts. 🫎🫎🫎

CONFIT, duck or other meat cooked slowly in its own fat. Yup, that is a classy way to call that thingy. Confit. Confit. Awesome! 🦤🍗🦤
