You guys must be thinking i am full of shit, but another cat just walked into my tent. This time at "camping solau" in Espot, Spain.

She stayed for about 15 minutes and is gone now.

I know already that this cat belongs to the campsite, she hopped on my lap yesterday while i was sitting in front of the reception. Don't know her name yet, but i will ask when i get out.

*edit: Cat's called Cookie

Cat Magnet 😇

This is a very recent development, i don't know what's going on, haha. I guess it's just campsite cats being used to walk into tents, but i have been camping a lot and never had this happen before.

I love how the cats are totally just chill enough to to peace out and nap on your chest.

We take those wins though 🙌

Oh yeah, i am a total cat magnet :)

A lemmy user wished me a lot of interesting animal encounters and i have been on a crazy run, not just with cats.

OP, you want to go camping with me??

[-] sag@lemm.ee 29 points 5 months ago

Car distribution system at work.

You don't get it

[-] supercriticalcheese@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

ahh there was an edit! I see

[-] AchtungDrempels@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

My edit? I don't remember correcting a typo, only adding the cats' name. I fear i am also not getting it, really no idea how "car distribution" links to any of this

[-] sag@lemm.ee 4 points 5 months ago

Actually, it's a meme where you say "cat" as "car" or "bird" as "birb." It's mostly popular among Gen Z. You can search about it if you want more info.

[-] AchtungDrempels@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

Ah, ok. I did know about birbs but not cars. Just happened to stumble into the catosphere in the last days :)

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 19 points 5 months ago

Admit it, you brought a bag of cats camping with you.

[-] AchtungDrempels@lemmy.world 9 points 5 months ago

Aw shit you got me, i am setting this all up in my garden with my own cats, haha.

For real, i have not been picking them up outside and dragged them in, they both just walked in. To the first one i think i made a "tsk tsk tsk" sound like i do to all cats. The second one was just suddenly there i was playing wordle, drinking coffee, procrastinating to get up.

You are clearly a cat whisperer and you don't even know it

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

That's pretty funny.

Note to self: go tent camping in Europe

I love meeting random local cats that are super chill and cuddly like this~

[-] AchtungDrempels@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

This is not how it goes usually. I have been on a lot of campsites, and never has anything like that happened before. Both those cats i think were very interested in getting onto people. The first one, as i left, jumped onto me when i wanted to pet her for good byes, then went onto my back, haha. Another guest helped me remove it, as she was clawing into my windbreaker jacket.

The second cat like i said had already jumped onto me as i was sitting there.

In the tent they were both mostly on top of me, the first one later got off as she stayed much longer.

I think there is a very good chance at both those mentioned campsites that this could happen. I assume on the second it will almost be guaranteed, haha.
