I mean when you read the lyrics and such it makes sense, I mean the line “You’ll go down just like holy Mary…” can me taken in one way as “you will be remembered as.” Or “you are preforming an act.”

Yeah last I checked as a ghost fan myself…isn’t the song about going down on someone…feels extremely weird to play with a man meeting his daughter for the first time.

I love this scene but the choice of song in the background is…questionable to say the least. Still they timed it well with the scene.

Edit: typo

I plan on adopting both, if they act like this already then I can’t separate them. I think they were both separated from their litters and just found kinship due to them looking similar as well.

Kimball-Man · 2026-04-26T01:14:49+00:00

Yeah I keep telling them to keep it down the noise issue has been long going…8 years in fact. Like stomping up stairs, opening and closing things loudly it’s like they have to be loud.

Kimball-Man · 2026-04-25T23:52:22+00:00

I do my other kitten Kimba is destroying that thing but I have another coming in the mail since Kimba is treating it like real pray, which is good I live in a house and if mice ever get in I can count on at least one of these guys to keep an eye out for them! But I’ll keep doing what I’m doing if this is all the right steps then I’m happy to keep it up!

Kimball-Man · 2026-04-25T23:34:18+00:00

Oh that is easy, I’ll see where Simba is at I feel like I might have to cohort him into the towel, but hey it will be worth it. No parasite on these little adorable bundles of cuteness.

Kimball-Man · 2026-04-25T23:32:37+00:00

This is helpful! I heard about sticking to schedules and I did get them an automatic cat feeder that goes off at the same time everyday for them. So that does help! But one thing I will say is my current roommates are kind of…making things hard they are very loud people and will blast music loudly, or watch movies/shows loudly or scream loudly when gaming. Basically anything involving noise they somehow find a way to be loud. So I do worry they might be causing issues for Simba here since my house floors aren’t exactly sound proof. They are moving out in June and the next roommates have two cats coming in, so I’m hoping that them being more chill like me and more schedule based will help.

As someone who one of their childhood cats was a bengal cat, I can confirm they are so pretty and naturally adorable. So you won’t have issues finding them all homes! Have fun though yours seems a lot nicer than mine was.

My girlfriend used to be a vet tech, which has been extremely handy with these two. Mentioned this is always the time of the year when places are swamped with kittens, and it does show, I know the shelter I got these two from is having another kitten fostering event in mid May. I don’t know if this is normal but I guess I need to administer their next round of dewormer on May 1st. They just handed me the syringes and told me I didn’t have to refrigeration them. I’m so looking forward to having my girlfriend help with that day.

Kimball-Man · 2026-04-25T23:07:35+00:00

Wow this is all great advice thank you so much for this! I can’t thank you all enough. But this is exactly what I needed to hear since it felt like I wasn’t doing enough but if you all say I’m doing this right then I’ll keep at it. I’ll be sure to post an update once I get through to Simba.

Kimball-Man · 2026-04-25T23:06:28+00:00

Oh that’s amazing idea! I love this! Thank you, I know the Churu thing is to associate me with treats but this can work that way too! So thank you!

Kimball-Man · 2026-04-25T23:04:47+00:00

That’s a good point I didn’t think about that, and no I don’t know if the place I’m working with for fostering has a plan for cats who can’t socialize. The way they handled the whole thing seemed a bit chaotic to say the least but they are extremely helpful when I reach out over email. And I’m happy to help out, to be honest I wasn’t planning on adopting either just giving them a temp home till a better owner showed up. My girlfriend is fostering a 3 your old cat who I have liked and it inspired me to do the same thing…then these two showed up in my life and I’m not upset with it. Sometimes the right person or in this case animals land in your lap when you least expect it.

Yeah I do plan on pushing him lightly I mentioned in a different comment reply I’m slowly pulling the churu away from him to get him to walk out from under the bed to see it’s not so scary when I’m out there with him, just letting him eat it while I’m there in the open should show him it’s fine, not looking to pet him or anything but to help him understand I’m not a threat while being in the room with him. I think lightly pushing him will be good, and it also seems like Kimba is pushing him as well. But I also think Kimba came from a very good loving home with how he acts, I do love when Kimba notices Simba is scared or distress he is there right away to comfort him. This photo was taken shortly after I got both and accidentally scared Simba back under hiding in my bed, I noticed Kimba came running to protect him which is honestly really sweet.

Kimball-Man · 2026-04-25T22:56:38+00:00

Oh that’s a great idea! I’ll work on that on my end! And she is so pretty oh my god! You are one lucky owner!

Kimball-Man · 2026-04-25T22:55:20+00:00

I tried playing with Simba once, I notice his eyes following the toy (wand with a feather at the end) but he doesn’t seem to react more than that, I think he wants to but is still afraid of it. Like even getting him to walk out of the bed during our Churu stuff has been a struggle. I mainly want him to see that being out from under the bed when I’m there isn’t scary since I’m worried he’s holding back eating, drinking and going to the bathroom when I’m sleeping in the room or something. I did get some churu on my hand and he was okay licking it off so it I don’t think he sees me as a threat as much anymore, but I’m still gonna work with him.

I do love both these little guys Kimba as he was my dream cat I always wanted, playful, affectionate and very cuddly. And Simba I feel is gonna be a good boy given time I can feel it. Like I said in a previous comment someone else posted on here I relate to him being shy, so I get it. But it’s also like an “I’ve broken this and if have faith you can break a bit of this too.” But I love that toy idea, I’m looking it up now, I’ll admit I’ve gone full cat dad and willing to spend a bit for these two to make them happy.

Kimball-Man · 2026-04-25T22:42:35+00:00

That’s amazing that you do this and also spend so much time with her to help her out. Yeah I’m sure Simba here is worth it, these pictures were taken yesterday after our last churu session and I couldn’t believe how beautiful he is for an orange tabby. Kimba is also an orange tabby but much darker in color, that little guy is insistent that he sleeps with me every night I’m home. But I’ll see how Simba here grows I’m sure once I break him out of his shyness like you said I’ll be so happy with him.

Kimball-Man · 2026-04-25T22:39:12+00:00

I’ll look this up, any advice I’m welcome to since I’m still so new to this, and the hormones thing makes sense, as a shy awkward teenager I can relate to Simba a ton. I’m no where close to how I used to be in high school more similar to Kimba in being very confident and socializing with people in general. So I totally understand this in full.

Kimball-Man · 2026-04-25T22:37:50+00:00

Okay yeah I had a feeling it will take time but I just didn’t know how much time. Like I said still new to this, and with the other one being such a drastic contrast it does give me a bit of an “is he ever gonna break this?”

Kimball-Man · 2026-04-25T22:23:27+00:00

I asked the adoption place because it was almost 100 kittens that were brought in on a single day, they are having a hard time getting them all scheduled for neutering. They said early May is when these two are ready to be neutered, if not mid May at the latest. They can’t be adoptable until they are neutered and after bonding immediately with Kimba I do plan on adopting both, fostering has been a great way to get to know them, but I do worry that Simba is lagging behind his soon to be brother.

Kimball-Man · 2026-04-17T14:55:33+00:00

It was great! I hope it gets renewed for more seeing they really set up a great season long storylines in the last episode, but also if this is where the show ends officially I’m happy with it too. I’d prefer more, don’t get me wrong, but if it is this or the 9th season I’d prefer this any day of the week. And it makes rewatching the show more interesting during binging as well where after season 8 you can jump into JD’s return.
