My turn

[xp_catseye]

Now that I've finally stopped finding glitter in my tail I would like to go camping.

After Pride, nothing sounds better to me than lounging in the quiet of unspoiled wilderness, grinding against no one, and eating only garbage what you kill. As Cat, this is my culture.

That is now an Everyone Problem.

Have you considered lounging by a pool and being pampered?

Have you been introduced to the glory of a spa yet?

[xp_rictor]

Maybe people who are not naturally predators could bring food to cook instead. I don't know if even you could hunt down wild graham crackers for s'mores.

CAMPING CAMPING CAMPING!

FISHING!!!! oh oh! WANNA DO TO MAINE??

[xp_catseye]

Why would I let others bathe me? I have a perfectly good tongue.

This has big “season six mid-budget wilderness redemption arc” energy. Love it.

You know the one: where the network strands you in the Balkans with a single match, a broken radio, and only emotional baggage for ratings. Quiet woods. Foraged mushrooms. Emotional detox by moonlight.

But is this one of those "eat what you kill" trips or "name the raccoon and make friends" trips? Important to see how attached you all should get to the local wildlife.

there's a pun here about cats and pride

there's also - legally hunting season doesn't start until August or Sept but I think that's more for people who use guns or bows and arrows (suck it clint haha) or traps and whatever. Pretty sure that law doesn't apply to "I ran the deer down myself"

[xp_catseye]

When you think about it, theft is a kind of hunting.

[xp_catseye]

Only if you're going to earn your keep. As natural hunters, it will be our responsibility to ensure the others survive.

So, LOTS of fishing.

Oh, and building shelters, I guess. I prefer a tree, but some people have skill issues.

[xp_liono]

they can sleep in tents if they want.

go glamping.

I'm an excellent fisherman. and trees are great!!

[xp_catseye]

I've been told I shouldn't get specific about certain plans, so I'll say only two things:

1) I don't eat named meat, and

2) I don't intend to make any new friends.

[xp_catseye]

No one can prove the deer didn't start it.

[xp_rictor]

Shoplifting the Stop N Shop is a lame demonstration of hunting skill

What's the difference between a spa and you and Liam grooming each other?

[xp_invisible]

Because massages are fun, and so are those little drinks with umbrellas in them.

You clean yourself everyday, sometimes it's fun to not have to do things.

[xp_catseye]

It's completely different. Grooming is a bonding activity, meant to build trust and comfort. If I wanted a stranger involved in my personal hygiene I'd just get another flea dip.

Camping! How excitin’! I can go and see what gear we brought up with us.

Ya don’t only have to eat animals. There’s plenty to forage in these here woods.

[xp_catseye]

Don't mistake "have to" for "want to."

You use gear?

[xp_aero]

Not all of us have a built in fur coat Cats 😂

Jus’ a tarp, something to cook in, a fire starter, sleepin’ bags, an’ a rifle. Tent if yer feelin’ fancy. Fishing line if there’s a stream.

[xp_catseye]

I accept physical contact from those I choose. It is an earned privilege. All others shall be bitten.

Daily grooming is both meditative and soothing, but maybe some people feel differently.

[xp_longshot]

No one intends to make friends! The best ones always sneak up on you when you're sunburned, lost, and yelling at your compass.

Sounds like you’re going full survival mode: no gear, no plan, just vibes and spite. That takes me back.

[xp_invisible]

Well, I guess I'll take pillow fights off the group bonding list too.

I do get how repetitive actions are relaxing, but I find it can't match upto a good masseur, but as you say, maybe that's just me.

[xp_catseye]

I guess it is.
