1) Catfags stop shitting up the board with pointless threads
2) Catfags stop letting their cats roam outdoors

I barely posted about cats for a couple weeks until the catfags started with 1) again

Same. The sudden flood of shitty one line cat threads in november was pure faggotry. Sorry catfags, never was a cat website, and now definitely never will be
>but caturday!!!
A cat meme doesnt mean you need to like cats as pets or revere them as better than dogs. They are useless animals.
>BUT ANIMAL ABUSERS
Yes we dont like those in general, kittens or puppies. And outdoor cat fags are starting to look more and more like zippocat guy to me.

>>4930887
You fools realize 80% of it is bait and only 20% (at best) is unironic schizophrenia/boomerbrain, right? This applies to both the catsissies and cat murderers.
In either case, they only keep posting because you maroons keep giving them (you)s. If they were just screaming into the void they would either innovate on the shitposting or move on to greener pastures.
>>

they “ironically” murder cats??

Pretty sure peoples dogs actually do kill outdoor cats tho

Cats arent exactly smart or apex predators and it is very normal for dogs to hunt and eat cats

No, we tried ignoring them for two weeks and then the spam just started getting worse. Sorry, but now catfags need to feel unwelcome.
>>
>>4930886
Catfag spam is a reaction to literally shitting in every feline related thread and spamming dead felines. Most recently dead lion cubs. Cat hate schizo is not even limited to domestic cats anymore.
>>
>>4930914
>Most recently dead lion cubs

So if you post about lions, are you supposed to never ever mention or post pics/vids of lions killing wildebeest/zebras/antelope, etc? How is it any different when an eagle kills a lion cub?

Yes, I don't spam pictures like this and I don't like to look at this. Unlike cat hate sadist schizo.

Why does this picture upsets you? You keep spamming coyotes and falcons ripping cats up and gloat about it.

Tigers and lions are vicious predators who will KILL AND EAT THEIR OWN CUBS, lmao imagine feeling bad because they get merked by a different predator
>>
>>4930949
They don't eat their own cubs idiot.
>>
>>4930950
Yes they do, retard. lmao are all catfags just plain retarded? No wonder these are your favorite animals.

>Infanticide in lions is common, and here we will briefly look into the theories as to why lions, both males and females, commit such an act.

>In fact, it is estimated that a quarter of cubs dying in the first year of life are victims of infanticide (Packer & Pusey, 1984).

https://www.wideopenspaces.com/lions-eat-their-cub-but-for-a-good-reason/

>Rolf Baerens, owner of the safari company Big Cats Namibia, shared video and photos on social media showing a pride of lions feasting on a lion cub. At first, it's jarring to see the animals eat their own, but in the description, Baerens explains what happened and what the animals are most likely thinking.

>Lions eating each other isn't completely unheard of. Experts say in some cases, males might kill and eat the cubs so the females can carry their babies or younger males might kill older males to take over the pride.
>>
>>4930953
Lions kill the offsprings of the previous male not THEIR OWN, idiot.
Wolf packs also kill the pups of rival packs during a pack confrontation. And if a pup dies by other causes, they also eat it, as well as culling disfunctional pups like all predators do.
>>
>>4930950
>>4930953
And tigers:

>Khursapar’s dominating tigress, nicknamed Baras was seen holding her cub’s tail in the mouth on Thursday eve ..

>“It seems to be a case of cannibalism. Researchers have found that a mother killing her young one is common among tigers as it is part of ‘normal’ maternal behaviours. This natural maternal behaviour mainly occurs if the mother desires to adjust her litter size by killing some of her cubs to suit her ability to raise offspring,” said Shukla.

https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/nagpur/tigress-eats-her-cub-in-penchs-khursapar/articleshow/96464220.cms#:~:text=Generally%2C%20a%20tigress%20uses%20her,for%20monitoring%2C%E2%80%9D%20said%20Shukla.
>>
>>4930956
>unknown how the cub died
litter culling is observed in pretty much every predator including domestic dogs and cats
>>
>>4930954
You're retarded. Lions are known cannibals.

>“We were on a game drive on Chiefs Island out of Mombo Camp in the Okavango Delta when we heard lions fighting in the thickets. Upon investigation we came across four young male lions that had caught a young female lion from a nearby pride. The lioness was part of a small group of lions that had a kill too far into the other territory. They were surprised by the four males, the one lioness was caught whilst the rest fled. While the four had successfully subdued the female in what had been a vicious fight they began feeding on her while she was still alive. As the lioness took her last breaths, the four males were feeding on her as if it was a normal prey animal.

>In the words of a professional, the images of those Delta lions feasting from the belly of their fallen relative don’t seem so upsetting and unnatural

B-b-but this is normal predator behavior! Okay, just don't cry when a martial eagle kills and eats a lion cub as well.
>>
>>4930962
So it was rivarly between packs, how is it different than wolves destroying the den of rival packs? Or painted dogs destroying the pups of subordinate females?

The cannibalism aspect?
>>
>>4930962
> just don't cry when a martial eagle kills and eats a lion cub as well.

Why is it so fun to spam those kind of pictures?
>>
>>4930965
Because catfags get bootyblasted over entirely natural behavior? Sorry, life in the wild isn't The Lion King.

Male lions will even rape a lioness while cannibalizing it:

>Jason’s experience in the Sabi Sand and keen interest for Big Cats also refers us experiences with the Mapogos. He says, “I have, on a number of occasions, witnessed lions feeding on another lion. If a lion is caught outside of its territory and killed it is often eaten by the attacking pride/lion. In the Sabi Sand, the well-known Mapogo coalition of 6 males killed and ate many lionesses, often even ‘raping’ them in the process as a show of dominance.”
>>
>>4930967
It's also entirely natural behavior:
>>4930932
>>
>>4930967
>life in the wild isn't The Lion King

In lion king cubs were almost killed by hyenas which is pretty in line with nature, hyenas kill lion cubs all the time, as well as attack and kill solitary lions

and lions go out of their way to destroy hyenas whenever they find them

What exactly is the threshold for how super duper valuable a thread needs to be on a board for fucking around and posting animal pics? don't see any weird meltdowns in the Raccy get snaccy thread, or its neighbor "the racoon", or LOOK AT HIM GO
it's extremely fucking weird how all cat threads must go in the general (protip, this isn't /vg/, generals are optional and unenforceable) for being spam and their mere presence has aspies """going to war""" over "board quality" like "Blub blub, I am fish" getting archived would be the greatest slight they've ever witnessed and there's no way you could just remake a thread
yes the low effort spam was obviously spam (to bait you, despite your claims, since there was never actually less replying) and shat up the board but you're a newfag and a chimp if you took it THIS hard and now think any non general thread is haram
you know, if it wasn't all a pretense for some babby monke tier irrational animal hatred, but why restate the obvious

You cant deny that the /an/ schizo spammed a bunch of cat threads after he got btfo in his meta thread. He literally said he planned on trying to kill the board.

No one else here is lifeless enough to spam a bunch of shitty cat threads out of spite. But also, not all cat threads were spam.

ITT: Schizophrenic cat person admits to being half the posts on the board and raiding /an/. All of the dog vs cat arguments are one guy. All of the trolling in /dog/ is one guy samefagging with proxies (notice that when the mods wipe the IP he used, posts replying to him also go). He begs people from other boards and websites to come spam cat threads on /an/.

we've had this problem for five fucking years. rotating residential proxies are unbannable. mods can not get rid of anyone who uses them.

All you dog vs cats people are missing the point - the ultimate solution is to have a cat and a dog and hope they get along/let them fight to the death.
