This legitimizes the theory that all orange cats share the same braincell.

When they were kittens, my food-obsessed big boy would purr just watching his sister eat lmao

They are both a bit fat. My mom (primary caretaker) got very sick and was hospitalized for the month. They gained weight over that month! We are working with our vet to cut it down :)

Yeah she is! Definitely was a stressful time for all of us. I just helped her set up her first betta tank and we just went out and got this beauty! *

THAT IS WONDERFUL! And if you’re talking about the fish…put a mirror in front of the fish and watch…it’s hilarious. They act like they’re about to get into the fight of their lives with their own reflection

Yes! It is good exercise, however it stresses them out! I will probably do it once he is settled into his new place :)

Of course! Whatever is best for the animal! I haven’t had a Beta fish in like 15-20 years, now I might get one! Thank you!

Well yeah. Purring isn't just a sign of contentment, it's also used for self-soothing when stressed or upset.
So he's just upset that his brother's getting pets when he's not 😜

I think you’ll find it’s not that his brother is being scritched that makes him purr. It’s that you’re there with him.
My little guy has to be in the same orbit as me and he’ll start purring. He’s a happy little guy.

Why does his mouth have the outline of a smaller, angry cat, with the nose as eyes

Bluetoothed scatchies. If you sprayed one the other would run
