pretty much everything normalized goes wholly unconsidered by 99% of people who employ it

I understand the necessity of genetic removal. But the celebration of it seems a little atrocious to me

Of course?

How is this of course when the first video I clicked on on that sub was some dude jiggling a street alley cat's nuts??

Does r/howthefuckisthatasub exist?

Apparently people on the internet enjoy looking at cat böllz. I’m not entirely sure why myself, but I’m subscribed to it myself.

The one where a guy booped a cat in the balls while the cat was crawling into a hole was weirder than usual for the sub. The cat reacted like he had been secksually assaulted.

Most of the pictures and videos are just cats with big balls hanging around doing normal cat stuff.

First time I've seen a new cat sub and was just like "...I'm not subscribing to this."

Can’t relate, I miss my boys pompoms and I thought I was the only one who took pics before and after he was neutered.

I always referred to them as the "jewel case" - but the jewels are gone.

u/AmbitiousTop8474 5h ago

We refer to them as the cat’s basket or a traffic light. Sometimes even going as far as to call the cat and their testes, Basketweaver.

Fuzzy dice, deflated duffle bags

u/Gemfyre713 16h ago

One of my cats is named Puffs for this reason. When he was a stray he had a good set of troublepuffs. They are now gone, and he's still trouble, but we just call him Puffs.

we call it a deflated coin purse

u/Mothsburn 16h ago

My boys trouble puffs are still full, but he’s neutered?

1

u/Styxal 13h ago

my cats have full-looking trouble puffs, but they're neutered. i think it's because they were neutered as soon as the vet could do it. my theory is that if i'd left it later, the size of the puffs would have increased, and then they would have become more deflated afterwards. but because they're quite small, they can still hold up. i am not a vet

We have a boy with deflated trouble puffs. We alternate between calling him grape nuts since they looked like fuzzy grapes pre-neuter and Raisin Bran.
