Who gave that cat acid? Judging by the size of his pupils that kitty looks to be tripping the light fantastic! jk

I think kitty is just annoyed and kind of ready to attack lol.

Their pupils expand quite a bit during attack mode!

Ive always made jokes like these, i tell ppl i swear cats are constantly tripping balls.

Tripping balls was my first thought, but people seem really wholesome on this sub, so I toned it down. There was a post of a cat with its head between two pieces of bread and no one made the obvious eating pussy joke!

I AM an old lady! I have 6 cats and I find pussy jokes very funny. I'm 57 years old on the outside and 12 on the inside!

I stand corrected. Here’s a pussy joke to make amends:

Teacher: Johnny why is your cat here with you at school today?

Johnny: Well, I couldn’t leave her at home because I overheard the mailman tell my Mom that when the kid goes to school, I’m going to come back and eat your pussy.

I've found that black cats tend to keep their pupils more dilated like this. Totally anecdotal but maybe there's a reason for it

He might be afraid. Likely still getting used to the foster situation.

A new cat tree is total cat acid, its carpeted, and smells like the pet store, way to overstimulating.

He's stressed out. The body language nails it

He likes whoever is talking to him (marginally anyway) but he's in no mood to screw with that thing in his face.

I think it's the kitten I saw, he's acting territorial and that can be a problem with older males, especially if they were altered late

The aggression toward the human should absolutely be worked on though unless you failed him... and then for the sake of your nose, I would discourage the smacking

Ears forward but growling: that’s some mixed messages right there.

My jerk bit me on the face like twenty minutes ago. I have two bleeding gashes above and to the side of my eye. My jerk and I are not friends at the moment. When catitude goes wrong.

It's like he's saying, "This is my house! Get off my lawn!" 😆
