Can’t go through the same hole the dirty dog went through.

honestly, the way some cats are that could be a valid reason for why it did this.

My cats won’t touch a door mat. They even leap like this out of the litter box to avoid the litter mat. I don’t know why. What makes it even weirder, is if I lay a mat in the middle of the room they bee line to go lay on it. Their brains have very odd wiring.

I like how the cat first turned around to make sure that the owner was recording video.

As a cat owner that look was to check if he would open the net for the cat

"You gonna open this shit? No? Ok fuck you I am gonna do it myself"

Loved how it aimed precisely for the seam, no ungainly bursting through the middle of the fabric, with the risk of self-humiliation by snagging one's claws in the mesh. It's clear finesse was essential to the performance.

Honestly, this makes a lot of sense as well. I mean, cats are super sensitive, and that thing wants to stay closed. It's potentially a sensory overload for the kitty to go through it any slower. So, it figured out how to handle the thing: yeet! And therefore minimize contact time.

This is simultaneously a very interesting take, and completely baseless.

I don't know, a lot of people are aware that a cat's whiskers are very sensitive and sometimes they won't even eat out of narrow cat bowls because of something called whisker fatigue.

Clearly you didn't know this and instead of researching, decided to call out that guy's plausible explanation for no good reason.

soda-jerk t1_ivp0nto wrote

Not at all baseless.

Cats and dogs have other sensor hairs and whiskers, beside the ones on their muzzles. They use them to gauge the space around them, particularly their heads. That mesh screen dragging across all those hairs probably doesn't feel good. Though we obviously can't ask the cat, we can try to imagine what it's like, by thinking of what a similar fabric would feel like, rubbing against a highly sensitive part of our bodies.

The dog is a dog, and might be enjoying the sensation, or is a little slower putting the two things together.

Have you never seen a cat spend 2 minutes scooching under a closed door?

Pro tip: When you see. ? In a url it's a search query and anything after can typically be removed and the link will still work fine for sharing.

For example your link can be shortened to https://www.amazon.com/Magnetic-Screen-Door-Curtain-Friendly/dp/B07NPVQV34/ref=asc_df_B07NPVQV34/

thephantom1492 t1_ivngun2 wrote

It can be shortened eveb more. The important part is the /dp/B07NPVQV34 so it can be shortened as https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07NPVQV34

dp = display product

Superdunez t1_ivo7jyi wrote

And with reddit formatting it can be shortened even more!.

[Link Description] (Web Address)

Remove the space between them.

ThaneVim t1_ivn8die wrote

You can actually further shorten Amazon links. /ref is the starting point of its tracking data, and pointless for reaching the product page.

skyler_on_the_moon t1_ivnlsrx wrote

Also, you can leave out the legible product name - you only need the item code.

KernelTaint t1_ivnweyz wrote

It depends on the site.

The ? Just denotes the start of query parameters. They could be important, they could not be.

It’s basically a universal way to transport additional user info or data between different environments/platforms without storing it somewhere in cookies.

It’s most commonly used for marketing purposes. These parameters/tags can be recognized by analytics software to collect relevant data about their page visits. E.g. it will allow them to analyze how the visitors arrived on their website, which search engine or advertisement did they come from, by which keywords, etc.

Another common way they’re used is for usability aspects by the website itself. When a page loads it will read the tags for user preferences like search order, filter options, interface settings, etc.

It’s basically harmless, the data isn’t as personal as cookie info. There’s no harm removing it from the url to make it prettier, but leaving it there doesn’t hurt either.

Thanks, I know, I've been a software engineer for at least 30 years now.

> It’s most commonly used for marketing purposes.

That's a bold statement, it is used in plenty of places for things other than marketing and tracking.

tandpastatester t1_ivstloj wrote

Yeah you might be right. I work in online marketing so I’m probably biased in that regard. 90% of the time I’m focusing on parameters it’s for tracking or SEO.
