I have two dogs. One is able to solve all the "puzzle toys" very quickly. The other stands there and waits for the one dog to do it and then take the treats. Not sure which one is smarter.

I mean these cat got their head stuck in bread, had to wear countless weird glasses, go through labyrinths, and you expect them to react to a bit of string? They just can't be bothered anymore

This man is the best youtuber ever

He never clickbaits, his videos are so wholesome, and he puts so much effort in his videos.

Also he has cute cats...

You: they’re not the sharpest tools
In the shed. Ralph and Bella: am I a joke to you? We have claws y’know

I honestly think all cats are intelligent in different ways, just like people. Our "dumb" cats turned out to be the best at understanding and manipulating human behavior, while the "smarter" ones could problem-solve without human intervention.

This is one of my favorite YouTube channels.
The amount of work they put in their videos. He can’t do anything badly.

In a nutshell;
Bella: Wakes up, demands food, wanders around all day, kneads a jumper, sleep
Ralph: Wakes up, demands food, gets high off of catnip and naps, jäger bombs all night,

4:10 Ralph: Chris I saw where you put my toy, You even did the same for Miss Bella.
The Sound Ralph made at 6:43 is called a Trill which is a cross between a Meow and Purr, it allows you cat to tell you “Hello I am here” or “I’m a happy cat”

I love how at 6:24 Belle does the thing all cats do when they lead you somewhere; turn around and go "Hey you still here?"

Bella with a donut around her neck kneading the red jumper has got to be the cutest thing I have ever seen <3 4:59

My cats know the differences between TV and real life images, react not only towards their images in the mirror but recognize my mirrored images, throw away stupid threads, find toys within seconds... I just learned that my cats are super geniuses.

My cat was deffinatly a genius. I have so many stories of her that prove this lol. My favorite is how, she was an outsidd cat, so she would wonder a lot. One time she disappeared on us for around 2 to 3 weeks and came back meowimg with two callors on (a normal callor and a flea callor) she knew exactly where her home was. And when we moved she figured out her surroundings in just a few days. She was also a excellent hunter. She sadly passed away last year, but I remember her like it was yesturday. May she rest in peace :)

Thanks for making my day. My old cat just died and since my dad is in the Army, we have to move every couple of years. I miss my cat but Ralph and Bella fill up that missing piece. Thank you :)
