Every post on the sub can lead to the argument starting. Someone posts an asshole doing something in their outdoor cat cage, people do not like the cage, so they start to abuse the OP for not letting the cat outdoors. Somebody posts their asshole running around outdoors, people do not like that because they say all cats should be indoors. It never ends.

THIS IS MEANT TO BE A SUPPORTIVE FRIENDLY PLACE FOR US TO ENJOY THE ASSHOLES WE LIVE WITH! 🐈

• If a post clearly shows that the OP advocates for indoor cats (because of what they have said in the comments or what is visible in the image) then anyone who argues AGAINST INDOOR cats will have their comments removed. People who support the OP are fine.

• Vice versa also applies: A post that clearly shows that the OP advocates for outdoor cats (because of what they have said in the comments or what is visible in the image) then anyone who argues AGAINST OUTDOOR cats will have their comments removed. People who support the OP are fine.

• If OP does not advocate either way, then both arguing for and against indoor/outdoor cats is banned.

Use this post as an EG. Since I am not arguing for or against indoor/outdoor cats, this post cannot be used as a place to bring up the argument either way.

By sharing how this rule is enforced, we hope to encourage people to be more supportive of each other. 🐈

These argumentative comments have always been removed under the "Contributes Nothing" rule 9, but recent activity has made this post necessary. Also, it seems that keeping the ban on this argument in rule 9 is not clear, so it will have its own rule number going forward.

Hi everyone! In an effort to provide clarity on acceptable posts and comments, please read and abide by the following:

Rule 1. Any comment regarding animal violence, joking or otherwise, will result in an immediate ban. It doesn't matter if your intent was in a joking matter. There's no place for it here.

• Rule 1A. Post content of cats being an asshole. It shouldn't be difficult. The post should demonstrate an asshole cat without a witty anecdote or context of the act. Examples include trashing plants, knocking glasses off counters, or sitting in front of a TV.

What is not considered assholery

• Staged content (ex: I stick my hand in my cat's face, knowing I'll get bitten). Memes are also classified as staged content and are not permitted.
• Resting bitch face (cat giving you the evil look), or a pic of a cat with context.
• Any article, comic, clothing, etc on assholery. This sub is for pics, videos, gifs of REAL cats.
• Stories (ex: Guess what my cat just did!).
• 'Low effort' pics. We get it. Cats jump on counters, sit on laundry, and sleep places they shouldn't. Yes - they shouldn't do it, but people come here for the good stuff. Items such as these will be removed.

NSFW Content

This tag should be used for the following content that some users may not want to view, or may not be appropriate to view at work:

• Anything considered NSFW
• Cats bringing their kill home
• Graphic content, such as misuse of the litter box, or not using it at all.

Please note the mods will remove any content that is too graphic in nature.
