This is always the answer, regardless of context.

This one hasn't figured out that they arent single

My SO's cat hated me when we first met. Many years later, he (the cat) refuses to go to bed unless I've given him his belly rubs and tucked him in, with my SO also in the bed or it doesn't count.

If I were a single man, this would be a huge draw. Bring me your weirdest cuddle-kicker-lickers, your fuzzy, somewhat abusive little sons and daughters.

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 15 points 6 months ago

Right on. I've always taken the runt of the litter for pets. They have a lot more personality imo

[–] Alexstarfire@lemmy.world 22 points 6 months ago (1 children)

I think you're actually married.

[–] I_Fart_Glitter@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago

Milo thinks so too.

As a bald man, I may consider staying with you as I suppose no hair will be licked.

[–] smh@slrpnk.net 12 points 6 months ago (1 children)

other hair may also be licked---my dog is really into beards and eyebrows. He also tries to get into ear canals. For him, though, you just need to wash off the tasty, tasty face oils. Then he gives a single lick and walks off in disappointment.

My dog likes licking armpits. It’s usually only my own, but when he’s mauling you if you put your arms up and he sees pit he’s going for it.

[–] smh@slrpnk.net 4 points 6 months ago

My partner's the tasty one in the relationship. I don't wear lotion or anything, he just isn't into my flavor :(

Dog: PITS! PITS! PITS! [NSFW album cover... on YouTube? 😮]

Their tongues are pretty rough, you don't want them licking your scalp either.

Below the belt, yes.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Presumably, you still have hair elsewhere on your body.

[–] HowAbt2day@futurology.today 2 points 6 months ago

You pre-zoomed correctly.

Probably better companion than the men

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Animals are 100% better companions than humans, man or woman, or whatever.

[–] TomArrr@lemmy.world 0 points 6 months ago

I disagree, my wife doesn't. Please explain?

[–] AeonFelis@lemmy.world 13 points 6 months ago

As a man, I'm willing to let Milo lick my hair while I sleep.

You can sleep on the couch.

Imagine having a cat where you’re the little spoon.

[–] sad_detective_man@leminal.space 6 points 6 months ago

The Rizzler himself

The question I have that will never be answered is what happens if she cuts her hair short or dates a man with long hair?

[–] Kinokoloko@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 6 months ago

My hair is free for any and all cat lickies

[–] FlashMobOfOne@lemmy.world 2 points 6 months ago

That's what you get for accepting a god into your home.
