Thought it was a possum at first lol
After her first vet trip.
Before the trip:
She has such a pretty face!
A blast from the past!
I'd try and use the bathroom. I'd assume that the two cats that follow me in are mine. If it turns out that all cats will just follow strangers into the bathroom, then one cat is immediately going to jump in the bathtub and start messing with the curtain. Another cat is going to try and dive head first into the toilet. Those will be mine.
That's pretty smart. If you fail, hey now you have two more cats
Lie down and take out my phone. The two cats who immediately get between my face and my phone are mine, as are my 198 new cats.
He would be the dead one.
Sorry for your loss, and thank you for the laugh.
And my answer is the same.
identical
You now have 99 dead pets
My dog is the most cowardly dog I've ever met. All I would have to do is bring the toy he is afraid of. All the other dogs will either ignore it or want to play with it. But my dog will recognize the scary toy and cower. I got him that toy for Christmas and it was a really nice expensive toy. Same brand as all his other toys he loves. But for whatever reason, he's scared of it. So I gave it to my parent's dogs who think it's just the best toy they've ever seen.
They would pick me out
This. My pup would be so anxious around 99 other dogs that she'd rush up to me, waggle her butt and whine about it.
Well, first I'd be asking what you did to the eye on 99 other pets. After that, I'd find a stairway and take home the first one that tried to trip me going up the stairs
If there was just my cat? I'd just get a hoodie on and pretend to start studying. The cat that climbs my back and snuggles up into the hood is mine.
If my dog is also there? I'd just say "where's the cat?" In my dialect. My dog would just waltz over to the cat and sit on them. Or just point at them like he does with quails (hunting dog) if he can't reach her.
Seymour has a little pink spot on his muzzle, and I'm not sure if could tell Will from a shag rug...
I've had the same gerbil for almost 30 years. I doubt I'd notice if someone swapped it into identical colored one in the middle of the night.
Oh easy. I’d go sit on the porcelain throne and close the door. He’ll show up incensed that the door was closed soon enough.
Alternately, I could walk within 10 feet of the cabinet that has the treat bag in it.
If they are truly 'identical' down to every atom, unless we are talking about spiritual things, they are simply all the same?
I'd sneeze. Calcifer (orange cat) would run up and "mer" at me to say 'bless you'
Easy. Mine is the cute but stupid one who keeps walking into walls and barking at his own shadow. And no, he's not blind. Just dumb.
"find it!" will cause her to search everywhere for her toy. For the other one, it's whichever starts yodeling if I splash water into the air. I've never heard another creature make the noises he does
I just have to sit down for a few seconds. The one that throws themself over my shoulder like a baby is mine. She did that when I first met her at the shelter and she still does it when I visit her at my brother's
my cat has a dedicated overstimulated corner on my desk where she goes if I'm annoying her too much but still wants attention, and I imagine that's not pretty common. She also stares at the wall.
There's 99 other dogs in the room. The antisocial thing will be glued to my leg 😆
I feign striking my wife in anger.
We shared a house with my wife's brother. He was an alcoholic, and got uppity one night. I was at work, so not home.
Our dog made sure he regretted being an aggressive ass towards his sister.
Then I nearly got assault charges for making sure he remembered why he was bruised and scratched up the next morning after I got home from night shift. The canine puncture was his own fucking problem. Note: I didn't lay a hand on him, was just accused.
Can of whipped cream. Misha has very good pattern recognition.
She also recognises the "c'mon whistle" as head back inside.
Misha is a cat btw
I have taught my dog a few nonverbal commands, so I could easily identify her without even speaking... If she isn't too busy terrorising the other 99 dogs of course.
My dog is missing an ear, so that would make her stand out pretty easily. If the rest of the dogs were also missing an ear, I'd look for the one that was trying to play with the rest of them. Calling her name wouldn't do any good anyways, since she would be way too distracted by the 99 other dogs.
I’ve answered this before, but -
I would sneeze or cough, and my oldest would act horribly offended and yell at me. Or she’d come up and demand attention because she’s 8 pounds of fluffy Velcro.
My second oldest would be the one cat to act offended at a bowl of wet food.
My boy would come running at the sound of a yogurt container opening or a whipped cream can being used.
My youngest girl would be the one to make eye contact with me and bolt away. She’d also be looking for her momma (my second oldest).
She knows the secret whisper. Even if she doesn't intentionally acknowledge it, I can still tell by the way her tail twitches at the sound.
The other one...I really don't know. He is lost to us ig
Can I have props?
If yes, give me a kitchen sink, cutting table and some tomatoes.
Upon the mere sound of water running in the sink, my little bastard will run to my feet and start yelling because he thinks I'm preparing meat. Then I show him I'm actually preparing a salad, and offer him a tiny piece of tomato.
He sniffs and walks away in one swift disinterested motion.
Whoever doesn't scream at my feet when I'm at the sink, or shows any interest in the tomato is out of the list 🍅
My boy cat has always given me very affectionate, but forceful, cuddles under my chin, especially when scared. Which reminds me that my old lady cat always buries her face in my elbow when she's scared.
So, I'll just have to pick up every cat and see who trusts me enough to use me as a blindfold lol
Well, I have a very specific play routine I do with my cat almost every day that no imposter could emulate. I'll point at her and exclaim, "YOU!!! I know what you've done!" and she'll take off running for her life and I'll chase after her. When I finally catch her, I ball my hand into a fist and shove it in her belly and she gives me rabbit kicks and sassy chomps.
Pick up the cats one by one and see which lets me pick them up without trying to attack me.
My cat scratched me a few times on Month 1, but is fine with me now 2+ years in, so if you mean it's all identical clones except the memory, then judging by her initial behavior, only my cat would let me pick her up.
I would go to bed and just from the duvet rustling notice which cat comes running to be the little spoon.
Or I would sit with some yummy human food (like butter) and see which one will stop sniffing at it when I tell them to leave it, and instead go sit patiently at their own place waiting for their taste of the treat (cats aren't known for their patience, but we have developed this ritual together.. next step is utilising the same command when it's time for their food and see if I can stop that darn yowling).
Forget my pet, I would be very worried with everyone involved, cats will just like "holy fuck so many enemy!" and cause a fight.
Other than that, depend on which one im looking for, one could be identify with his eye and being chonk, one with her belly and hook-shaped short tail, one with his whine and fluffy tail and his mane, and one with her very judgemental squint.
My dogs know their names. They also have individual whistles. They react to certain phrases.
Emeril gets upset if I put my shoes on my hand and clap. To him, it is like I'm a parent admonishing a child. Also, he can sit, paw, and speak.
Eli has the energy of a wet rug, but he whips his head around at the right phases. He can sit, paw, and roll over.
Della is gassy and treat motivated. She would be the hardest because she doesn't know me when she is free. She can sit, paw, kiss, and play guess what hand the treat is in.
By "identical" I'm going to mean you want me to pick Izzy out of a lineup of 100 female grey cats.
Wait and see which one starts yelling at precisely 3:45 PM. That'll be my Izzy, that's her loudest meal time.
Oh, it's easy. Mine is the one cat who is picking constant fights with all the other cats. For the amount of love and affection this guy has for human, he has the identical in size hatered for other cats, especially if they look like him
She's the only one who ignores me when I call her name
I call my dog Yardstick because she only has 3 feet. Pretty sure I could pick her out, besides the fact that she'd be glued to my leg.
I'd bring a pinch of crabgrass and see which sleek void with a kink in her tail comes up to eat it.
I have a parrot, i just need to say “who wants a blueberry?” And that little fucker will fly to me and start demanding his treat.
Mine would be the dead one. It's been quite a while since I've had a pet.
