This chicken is not dead

[RoyalChick]

A couple of years ago, I tripped over a hen and I knocked myself out while in the chicken run. Surprisingly, when I came to, I still had my eyeballs.

Good grief! That is high up on my list of most likely ways I will die. Tripping over a cat at the top of the stairs is still at #1.

I'm convinced cats and chickens are related...

I feel the same way. I see lots of similarities in attitude!

That crazed glare…

Or the:
Don’t you dare come anywhere near me, I hate and despise you, keep away from me I say ……. Oh you bring sardines! …… Well in that case, you are the most lovely creature on earth. I love you. I always have and always will love you more than life itself!

Who was it that did a whole list on this thread a while back of the things chickens have in common with cats? I think there's enough similarities that it's almost worthy of a separate thread to document them all

I never saw that. Would love to!

Searching "cats" brings up a lot of results for a thread that's meant to be about chickens (further proof right there?)

So far we have:

That does make sense. I've compared the two species and they have a few things in common:
1. They love to trip you
2. They will give you love bites/pecks while you are down
3. They prefer to initiate contact. While they
enjoy sitting on your lap it must be on their terms because they hate being picked up
4. Give them food on demand or risk your sanity
5. They wake up and raise he!! before the crack of dawn

6. If they fits, they sits

Love that list. Number 3 on @janiedoe’s set is perfect.

Mine also do the thing where they come hurtling around the corner and then just stand there like they weren't running half a second ago and aren't in a rush to do anything in particular
