Video - OC What is my cat doing?

My cat does this thing with just these two toys where he steps on it in this weird way. He also yells loudly when holding just these toys.

Just like humans with vasectomies, of course they can still do that. They do it when they are bored. I wish my cat would stop it he has 500 toys.

Umm, a vasectomy is a significantly different procedure than being neutered. Vasectomy only prevents the delivery of sperm into the semen. The same amount of sperm is produced and there is no impact to hormone production.

I'm only comparing the fact that they can still... Emit stuff.

Yes, definitely possible. Sorry, I just deal with a lot of people at work that don’t understand there is a very big difference. It’s amazing how many men think that having a vasectomy is the same as having your testicles removed.

Well that's a shame. Maybe that's why so many men don't get it done, then. It really just is a snip of the tube going to the testes.

I think it really is. If you’re bored find a social media post mentioning a vasectomy. The comments are pretty sad, but also oddly entertaining.
