I say this with love and as a professor of art history: the report on this study is junk. Itā€™s not measuring a response to ā€œreal artā€ vs ā€œreprintsā€; itā€™s measuring ā€œseeing art in a museumā€ vs ā€œseeing it on googles while in an MRI machine.ā€ www.theguardian.com/science/2024...

Real art in museums stimulates brain much more than reprints, study finds

Scientists in Netherlands using eye-tracking and MRI scans found ā€˜enormous differenceā€™ between genuine works and posters

ā€œYou trust me? Maybe I trust you!ā€ The taming crate is in my bedroom at night.

Oh, also. Weā€™re wandering into territory that raises vet eyebrows. šŸ˜‰ I usually let scared feral kittens see me fall asleep. Iā€™ve seen skittish cats become besties with people who sleep on my couch. My theory is that falling asleep is one of the least threatening things you can do to a cat.

I usually seem to catch mine at 3 or 4. But it depends, maybe Iā€™m not using the good stuff. šŸ¤£ (If theyā€™re long-term colony residents, they sometimes prefer their regular kibble. But tuna, yeah. You might have to experiment as to whether heā€™s seeking comfort or whether THE POWER OF TUNA COMPELS HIM)

Second the dog crate. I use one to tame feral kittens. I put it in the living room and let them watch the complete and utter lack of bad things happening to kitties for a while. It helps.

Final opinion on house: smells terrifying, has unexplained noises, CONTAINS ELDRITCH GIANT. But the food is AMAZING.
