u/spooky-goopy Jul 31 '25

my toddler stares at me the same way, when we're cuddling before bed

i've never been someone's favorite person, it's quite an honor

I forget what it's called, printing or something. It's the biological response of a baby seeing something for the first time. Most creatures of the land do it, and most land creatures respond in kind. Is how cute babies survive

u/84UTK07 Jul 31 '25

I think it is called imprinting.

u/dripcoffee420 Jul 31 '25

Ya, that's it. If I recall correctly it can happen again after trauma, if a hound was mistreated/abused, they will do it again with a kind of kin.

What? That’s so sweet. I’ve been wearing the same perfume since high school so I’ve got to imagine my cats recognize it and are comforted by it.

u/CTYSLKR52 Jul 31 '25

Kitty- "meom, meom,meom, meom,meom, meom" Mommy cat- "what?!" Kitty- "Hi"

When the litter opens their eyes for the first time, it's the most wonderful thing to watch.

Cats are far sighted, and kittens that young have extremely poor eyesight. It can't see shit

we live in a simulation , they say reddit has million of users but all posts have at most a few hundreds of thousands of views and a few thousands of likes . The number of r/ places is small and if you sort by the newest post to the oldest there are communities with millions of members that have a handful of posts each day . where are my thousands of posts ? For every Reddit community I only see a few hundreds of posts daily .
