What is a command you accidentally taught your pet?
What is a command you accidentally taught your pet?
My goldendoodle puppy doesn't ever want to come back inside. I told my beagle "go get your sister" as I tried rounding up the puppy. Now when I say "go get your sister" the beagle runs to the puppy and baits her into chasing him into the house.

My cat has learned how… delicious? ear wax is. I was itching my ear once, she started licking my finger, and now if I even raise my right hand near my head she flips out and runs up into my space just in case it’s ear wax time.
Note I don’t actually have a ton of ear wax or feed it to her, but something about my finger after I scratch my ear just drives her crazy.
Seriously though my ears are clean 😂
Cats are sensitive to a protein in our earwax so they find it appealing. I had a cat so obsessed he would hunt down my ear plugs (I had to put child locks on the bedside table drawers). Occasionally the earplugs would fall out in the middle of the night. One morning they both fell out and I grabbed one and thought I may have accidentally dropped the other. My cat raced in out of nowhere and I chased him away but I couldn’t find the plug. Fast forward twenty four hours later and I found a full ear plug in a pile of vomit. Thank goodness he was ok, but that damn cat zoomed in and swallowed that earplug whole in a millisecond and it makes me laugh thinking about it to this day.
My wired iPhone earbuds vanished one day.
A few weeks later, one of my cats went under the bed. I jokingly told him, “hey, bring my headphones out, will ya?” In front of my partner.
Seconds later, I heard the distinct klak klak and he brought them out.
If my partner wasn’t there to see it, NO ONE WOULD EVER BELIEVE THIS STORY (even me)
Dang! So it’s not just my dorks, good to know
Cat seems to like strong body smells, we had an amazing cat when I grew up, completely black, short but very compact fur, with tuffs of hair on her ears, she was a mix between a siamese, norwegian forrest cat and swedish farm cat, she was an amazing huntress as well she caught a lot of annoying fieldfares snd mice, even came home with the tail of a squirrel once....
Anyway, she really liked the smell of my toenails and would even lick the clippings.
I wonder why....
She also LOVED my moms home made apple pie, she could resist meat, fish chicken and other stuff like that being left out, but apple pie... she just would not care and go straight for it, even if we were in the same room and she knew she wasn't allowed on the table, that was the one thing she was obsessed with...
Cats are a mystery!
My cats all CROWD me when I file my nails…
Cats love ear wax. With one of my cats we get wax out of her ear and let her lick it. I think it's the protein.
