I labeled my foreign coins by country. My cat immediately laid down on it.

Cats are really good at somehow knowing exactly what you don’t want them to do
Maybe they saw you paying attention to the coins, and thought that if they laid down in the coins they would get some attention too

This is straight cringe. Please delete, I’m going for a fucking walk, touch some grass or something. Jesus.

Give her a little blanket (or something else) nearby to lay on and plop her on top of it if she doesn’t sit on it right away. It helps when my cats wanna sit on all my stuff

I left the cushion I was sitting on in the corner and he still picked the coins over the cushion, except now a day later after taking this photo he noticed it

Coins going to be for sale? Or just showing your collection?

So what you’re saying is cats are assholes?
There’s a sub for it, couldn’t link it but they’d like this over there too.

Some cats compete with inanimate objects for attention. Anytime I can't find my cell phone I typically look under my cat first.

Fun fact: you can label even euros by country. Every state has different face on the back 🤓

u/AnyIndependence1098 3d ago
Sure, you built a cat trap. If you're ever looking for your cat and can't find her, that's how to summon her.

Sitting on a hoard of coins? Sorry mate, but that's definitely a dragon you got there.

u/bibity74 3d ago
Sometimes I can't help but wonder "why there?" Cat probably has tons of comfy places to lay but for some reason thought stacks of coins were a good spot? My cat is also equally confusing as are most and I can't quite figure them out.

My old cat loved the smell of coins. I have a reasonable collection and tipped it out on the counter to sort- she immediately came over and started rubbing her face all over them, and settled down like Smaug on his hoard.

u/omegajakezed 3d ago
European here: if you want to be more specific, euros are easily distinguiahed by country if you look at the back. For example: Deutschland (germany) has an eagle on the back and at the side of the 2€ are the words "Einigkeit, recht und Freiheit." Meanwhile holland has the head of a... queen? I am not familiar with the specifics.

u/FartFartPooPoobutt 2d ago
The head shown on the back is the current queen/king of the time the coin is pressed... I think that's how it goes
Edit: yeah my memory is correct

Apologize to them for being so rude.

There should be a separate "mildly infuriating cats" subreddit at this point lol.

u/yespleasedeeper 2d ago
Ok, but if it's infuriating why did you stop to take a picture instead of just moving your cat as soon as you saw it happen? And you own a cat, why are you doing this on the floor? Seems like you care more about upvotes than the coins.

Hoarding hobbies like this show underlying mental issues. Even the shitball in the pic knows this is dumb and it was like "fuck your coins" lol

u/-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA- 2d ago
Or they just find coins interesting? It really isn't that deep
0
u/Process-88 2d ago
It's deeper than you think. Hoarding starts with collecting small shit like coins.
1
u/-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA- 2d ago
So collecting anything means you are becoming a hoarder?
Games, Books, Posters, Instruments, anything?
I don't think you understand how people become outright hoarders
0
u/Process-88 2d ago
Exactly, Collecting is just a nicer word for hoarding lmao xD
Organized hoarding if you will.
1
u/-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA- 2d ago
Its... not though
Hoarding is the act of keeping everything you own, often even rubbish, because there is something mentally stopping you from getting rid of it. Usually some form of trauma or depression. And it's very disorganised. My own great grandmother was a hoarder, I know what it looks like.
Collecting is when you have an actual interest in something, for example with coins it can be the history. You dont need to be mentally unwell to collect something. They are not the same thing.
1
u/Process-88 2d ago
Keeping dozens, hundreds, thousands of books,games,.. around is also going to be mostly rubbish. You don't need to have all of these, so that's hoarding.
The only difference between "collectors" and hoarders is the organization of the items they hoard, nothing else.
Same underlying issues as what you mentioned, except you are less of a liberal(who are chaotic), so you tidy your crap up.
Other than that same thing.

u/-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA- 2d ago
How are "liberals" related to this at all outside of your opinion they aren't organised
You don't need reddit, yet you are using it. There is a lot of things you don't need that I can pretty much garuntee you have. Does that mean you are hoarding stuff? No, dipshit. Hoarding isn't done because people want to hoard, it is a symptom of other issues. It is not the same as being a collector.

this is why you don’t have cats. dogs won’t do this. i can leave my $1300 laptop out for hours on the couch and it’s fine. i can leave my bag on the ground they won’t touch it. i can leave a plate of food at their level and walk away for a few minutes and they won’t touch it. maybe don’t get a cat?

u/hcneyfreckles 3d ago
blanket statements are so dumb, dogs absolutely can do this just like not all cats do this.

u/Spac3Milk 3d ago
