Let’s play.

.

Because it’s Friday, and that’s how we roll.

I could be funny and say toilet flushing ability. Saying goodbye to the litter box would be wonderful.

I could be sentimental and say the ability to live as long as we do because losing them breaks my heart every time.

But I’m going to choose the middle road and say communication.

I’d like to be able to talk to Lord Dudley Mountcatten, to carry on a conversation and see what’s rattling around in that little feline brain of his.

How about you?

What superpower would you like to give your pet…

  1. The same for me, in the end it would be letting me know how he is really doing as we try to do our best for him. I used to want them beside me until the end but as I age and the pains from the past injuries are tough at times to ignore, I would not want them to just hang on just for me. You are right though it is heartbreaking knowing we will have to say goodbye if we are lucky enough to outlive them.

  2. I do not need to know what my cats are thinking. But if they could cater to my every whim once in a while, feed me when I cry, give me skritches behind the ears, that would be a superpower I could get behind.

  3. Oh I so agree with you! Miss Frankie Lulubelle was quite the chatterbox and I think our conversations might have been so much more enlightening if she could speak human. I think sarcasm was her second language (after cat)…

  4. Oh my, His Lordship has become a very rotund feline, lol. That just means he’s well loved 😄. The superpowers I wish my cats had is, I wish they’d be able to help around the house. You know vacuum, dust, wash dishes and such, earn their keep so to speak, lol. Right now I just get the side eye and a yawn when the want their snackys and I don’t have any because I’ve run out 🫤.

      1. My dad had a dog named Dudley. We named him. All our pets at that time were named after Rocky and Bullwinkle cartoons. We had Sherman, Peabody and Natasha. Then Dad got Dudley. Our Angus was already named and trained by Guide Dogs of the Desert, so that broke the mold.

  5. I just wish the rats and raccoons in the neighborhood were afraid of him. That they’d say: “There’s the home of the Killer Cat” and not “Let’s strike here – the cat’s completely useless.”

  6. A superpower? To an animal? Even a domesticated one? I don’t think so.
    I have a friend who trained his cat to use the toilet (including flushing). Weird to visit his place. He was working on a book about it. I wonder if he ever finished it…

  7. If we are going to dream, let’s DREAM BIG. Let’s give humans the ability to commuicate with all other living beings, including red squirrels. I would especially like to know when they are not feeling good, so they could tell us their needs.
    But I would settle for them being able to use the toilet. Flushing would be optional.
