That is an "of course I know what a cat looks like" type of cat

Are you wearing a chef's hat? Who is on the menu?

[-] lvxferre@mander.xyz 35 points 3 hours ago

Mine be like:

Hat? OK. No glasses? OK. Shaved beard, cut hair? OK. New shoes? I DON'T RECOGNISE YOU, SHHH! SHHH!

Closest thing for them to smell

[-] lvxferre@mander.xyz 3 points 59 minutes ago

Yup, pretty much. Eventually she gets used to the smell of the new shoes being of the old human, and stops caring about it. (In the meantime I just let her smell my hand, so she knows that I'm still myself, not some cat-eating alien abomination that took over the human and a threat to her well-being.)

New shoe smell masks the foot smell

Growing up, everyone I knew with a dog you could rile the dog up just by putting on a mask.

I have dogs of my own now but neither of them react at all if you come in looking completely different. Why are mine defective?

[-] wander1236@sh.itjust.works 12 points 2 hours ago

My dog doesn't like it when strangers have hats of any kind or hair that's done up or curly. If your head is bigger than he thinks it should be, you're enemy #1.

[-] PugJesus@lemmy.world 8 points 3 hours ago

Mine never reacted to different clothing either. He was a pretty chill guy in general.

If you went under the blankets, though, he'd desperately try to dig you out lmao

My husky goes ballistic with howling if you say "space camp" and it's pretty much the only time she gets loud. She is very unlike most huskies lol

I had a friend with rottweilers who hated hats. They were awesome and oh so cuddly but gave me a good scare the first time I found out.

Never met a cat that seemed to care, or maybe I thought it was something else since a cat avoiding people isn't uncommon.

maybe he thinks it doesn’t suit you 🤷‍♂️

Jokes on me, my cats can somehow recognize me from the sound of me walking up to the front door (and only me, not when anyone else is visiting)... No idea if anything can make them not recognize me
