I have a black male, not sure how old he is. Not sure because he showed up nearly starving to death on my back porch one day. I fed him and he ended up ridiculously friendly, so he was obviously someone's pet at some point. After a trip to the vet he became an indoor cat. Hasn't been outside in years - doesn't seem to care. He does this stupid thing where... eh, easier to show than tell. He lays like that all the time. It's embarrassing.
You sure you're not talking about Freehold DM, now?

There's a theory floating around that cats are actually liquid. Pretty compelling stuff.

I had this kitten once, where lying on his back was simply an invitation for a fight.
My cat lying on his back is always a crap shoot. Sometime he wants his belly rubbed for a while, others it is a trap. A lot of times I think that he wants his belly rubbed but the temptation of the defenseless hand is too much to resist.

I had a foster cat for a bit who really liked the belly rubs. Enough so that if you petted her at all, she'd collapse and show her belly.

They're actually some other strange state of matter. Kind of like non-Newtonian solids.
They're definitely pourable.

I often sing to said fluffy gray cat ("Big Momma" Misty, so named because she actually hates kittens, and due to the fluff looks much larger than she really is, so the first part is an ironic moniker) here special murder cat song, adapted from this song my wife (a daycare teacher) sings her class of youngins.
"Big Mamma Misty what are killing today...today? Big Mamma Misty what are your tormenting today...today?"
What...I love my murder cat...

To be fair she put a hole in an adolescent red-headed woodpeckers skull and let it flop about and screech for at least an hour...I felt bad for the thing and had to put it out of it's misery.
I kept asking Misty "would you please finish that poor thing off and eat it already, the neighbors can hear that ruckus and its 2 AM..."
Mamma Misty...totally not a paladin.

Our dog once followed a raccoon trail all the way around this tree, while the raccoon watched us from above.
He discovered a field mouse trail in the snow and started diligently sniffing it, while not two feet behind us the field mice emerged from their hole and scurried across the snow.
He once followed a rabbit head first into and unstable snow drift which collapsed on top of him and I had to dig him out as he struggled to get deeper in the snow and the bunny emerged out the other side and then sat there watching us struggle to get out of the snow (it was a surprisingly deep snow drift).
Another time he chased a cat up a flight of stairs without realizing he'd never actually seen or been on stairs before. So while the cat could casually stroll down the stairs at a leisurely pace our dog was left to impotently bark at her from the top of the stairs.
Every day is like a cartoon when you own a Beagle. :-)

There's a King Charles Spaniel down my road that I call Sir Lord Baltimore, regardless of actual name and gender. Whenever I walk past the front yard and he's out in it, he'll look at me, wagging his tail, wait until I'm well past his Dukedom, then go ARFARFARF! ARFARF! ARFARFARFARFARF! at the top of his little voice for what seems like ages. Sometimes that encourages another doggie on the street to join in as well.
His owner always yells at him to stop when he does it, but it never works.

I lost my pretty female Japanese cat, Hikari, in May 2015. Yami, her evil and anti social adopted younger brother, is 16, and showing his age, but still quite healthy. Just moves more slowly.
I have a couple of kittens that were born the day before Hikari died. They are the largest and smallest cats of the litter. Little Bit is the runt. She's two years old now, and exactly 6 lbs. Her brother, Fat Bastard, is 11 lbs.

Is there any way to remove the big, bold "SUCKER!!!" written on my forehead? I really need it removed. ~sighs~ Now kittens can read it. Two kitten to be exact.
I'm fairly certain all cats can tell who has CAT SLAVE on their foreheads. We have a feral that we're feeding, and I'm continually astonished that he doesn't seem to see CAT SLAVE all over me.
He actually runs from me!

What I hate is when the kitten climbs my leg like that.
There's nothing as sharp as kitten claws.

Yes! As someone who was mauled repeatedly by cats trying to impress girls in high school i can attest to that.
That's rubbish. Girls in high school are largely unimpressed by both boys being mauled by cats and the mauling cats themselves.
High school girls are, however, impressed by the ability of high school boys ability to perform a handbrake turn... as demonstrated by a not-a-hamster, an orangutan, and the world's slowest man.

Hence the legendary ability of kittens to take out the average 1st level commoner.
It is known.
