    Mine is Rusty Shackleford, I did indeed find him in the garbage at work eating sausage patties, and he is the dumbest animal on earth. I love him edit:

    Mine is Fizzgig, born in a window well and found feasting on a squirrel corpse. Given that he was just 3 weeks old, its unclear if he killed the squirrel himself.

    I had pretty intelligent cats all my life and the last one exceeded everyone - an orange one by the way.

    Obviously there are dumb and more intelligent cats, but I think, it’s mostly the owners, that are too dumb to understand their cat.

    I didn’t find the little dumbass in the trash, but my nephew did, then he showed up at my door with a sob story and an idiot cat. He thought me seeing the skinny, hungry, idiot street rat of an animal with his big dumb eyes and stupid clipped ear and how affectionate he was that I wouldn’t be able to say no because he “nEeDS a GooD hOmE, hE’s sOOO tHin anD hUngRy, WiNTeR iS cOMiNg,” and I “hAvE a HeaRt ANd LOvE aNimALs aNd wOuLD tAKe gOOd cAre oF hIm,” like a dumbass.

    I hate that he was right.

      My uncle was like you when I brought home a stray as a kid. Yelled about it for 2 years. When my cat died he took a week off work and drank and cried all day.

        That’s the biggest reason I didn’t want another cat, I had just said goodbye to my best friend of 23 years, Jim Bones, a couple months earlier, it fucking destroyed me. It was some ugly cryin’. That’s in my future once again, now.
