1. I never thought an airspace announcement could be so exciting.

Just received a flash of insight about cat "zoomies." Holy cow, adrenaline rush!

[Nevilledog]

2. I understood about zero of what you wrote.....lol

[crickets]

5. Hee. You are not a cat owner, I take it?

Or all of your cats have been mellow? "Zoomies" are a cat thing. They suddenly, for no reason, get up and start running laps around the house like little mad things. Every once in a while they might stop and give you a wild-eyed look before they suddenly zoom off again. It's like they get a mega-jolt of adrenaline and have to run it off, all of it, all at once. Unnerving, and a little hilarious. Unless it's 2am and then it's just annoying. 😄

6. I have two. We call it "getting a hair" when our cats do that...lol

Our big tabby looks like a loaded spring.....back arches and he pops straight up into the air and then takes off. Very entertaining.

12. Dogs get zoomies, too

Our husky mix would scramble from one end of the apartment to the other end, over and over, at four seconds per lap, bouncing off the bed along the way.

15. Oh, yeah. I TOTALLY get that. We have four cats, and you just never, ever know

when one of them will get a wild hair and peel out. Zoomies! That is a perfect way of describing it.

And you never know what they will do on a zoomie. I had a little Tuxedo years ago who went into zoomie mode and made it all the way up the outside corner of a wall to the vaulted ceiling before coming back down. I loved that little cat. We have two tuxedos now, a Siamese, and a tortie.

17. When they're racing each other down the hall, then back, then down again ... then back again ...

making as much noise as possible in the middle of the night, that's known as The Game Of Thundering Hooves, in which cats fantasize about being wild mustangs, or buffalo, or some such.

7. This is what zoomies look like:

20. This whole subsection makes me want to have a cat again!

[herding cats]

13. Same.

Let this be what I suspect it is, please?!

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

14. Oh. I'd never heard "zoomies" before.

I have a new-to-me cat. Adopted from the local shelter back in July. She is VERY lively and really should have been taken in by a different human, but she's stuck with me.

She starts getting extremely active (zoomies) late at night when I'm getting ready to go to bed, and early in the morning several hours before I'm ready to get up. Sigh.

3. Security protocols are being moved into place. Something is Really Happening, isn't it?

[roamer65]
