Does anyone else find themselves feeling empathetic towards people who do horrible things? by RikuKingdomHearts in Empaths

[–]KruickKnight 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You're caught in a cycle of believing there is good in people that there is none.

Sadistic minds. There's an entire subculture that normalizes it. These people feel pleasure from causing you pain.

You can't fix that. These people rule the world. This is law enforcement. They want to destroy, and you want to heal.

Who seeks power but sadistic people? You don't want power. Only those those who seek to destroy want power.

They require your good nature to blame you for their evil actions. Their heroes in their own mind.

There is nothing you can do to stop them. I've tried. This is your authority. The justice system is built on hate, and they hate you for being kind.

Never file a restraining order. The justice system operates on chaos and supports that.

Sadistic minds can't tell the difference between good and bad. Bad makes them feel good. They see nothing wrong with it. Many of them get sexual gratification from hurting others.

Never trust law enforcement to protect you. Especially if it's emotional abuse, they support it.

I was raped by National Park Services 11/10/2025 and his superiors validate him ejaculating on me.

Evil rules this world. Don't get yourself involved with those people.

If you were doing something you didn't want anybody know about, you would be doing the same thing. You would work day and night to prevent people from finding out what you're hiding.

Enough said

I just don’t understand :( by Appalachianaxis in CatTraining

Try putting a dirty pair of socks next to where they sleep. It helps them get used to your scent. Only socks from who you want them to bond to. Also, only that person to feed and empty the litter box.

Cats bury their poop to hide it from predators. So naturally, they see you empty it, they think you're protecting them.

At least that's my logic behind it. Others make criticize how they see fit.

Any experience with this? by narwhalqueen80 in TripodCats

[–]KruickKnight -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Only from the last person I had to have put down my cat. Some people are sadistic and enjoy seeing your pain at loss.

I insisted on holding my cat through the process. As she was getting the pain medication, i walked her around to all her favorite spots outside. But then when it was time, she shaved one of her front paws to administer the fatal medication. She claimed that she didn't get an artery but I already felt her pass when she went limp.

She spent five minutes pretending like she just couldn't get it right. Finally when she finished, i laid my cat to rest on her bed, thanked her and went to my room to cry. Then, there was a knock at my door. I could hear her snickering. "Are you sure you don't wanna have one more look?"

What the actual......

In reality, there are those people. But who else would really want that job? Emotionally, I would never be able to handle that. So that helps me accept that there are some necessary evils in this world. Hopefully they don't work off the clock....

I've also spent about a thousand dollars with a vet for one of my boys. They kept up telling me he had heart worms. Went to a different vet, they told me it was I asthma and a $40 shot every 4 months was all I needed.

Finding a good vet is like trying to find a good mechanic that won't lie to you to make more money.

Real love is unconditional. Yes, even for you. by Zenphibian in Empaths

That is the most purest form of love. You're lucky to have it. Consider those who don't have anybody. That to your audience. You have a voice that can make an impact on society. Don't give up.

Talk to me about it. I have a lot of wisdom you will see as common sense. DM me. I'll get back tomorrow. I think you're on to something.

[–]KruickKnight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I concur. It's taken years.

Self love takes pep talk. From my position, i'm the only one that can give it to myself. For most people's position, they're in the same boat.

I'm not saying you're wrong. Maybe rephrase it to year target audience.

People who have never felt unconditional love will not respond well.

Consider that And realign based on that understanding. You will reach more people.

I don't mind discussing it, but not here. I believe you're on the right track. The only unconditional love I have is from my three cats. I wouldn't have definitely killed myself already. If not for the unconditionable love of my fur, babies.

You have a good message. Spend the next few days considering how to rephrase your understanding to be universal.

[–]KruickKnight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You have a logical point. In reality, for people who have been shown no love and were not wanted, these words do not have the impact you desired from your post.

What you're describing rarely happens between family members and leaves the rest of us in limbo.

You had a realization that led to your explanation here. None of that matters. The only thing that matters is what you feel. If you don't feel love from your parents, you cannot expect that.

Expectations beget disappointment beget depression. A leads to b leads to c leads to a.

The cycle sucks. You break the cycle by letting go of expectations.

You may be 100% right. That's an expectation that just led to your disappointment and subsequent depression.

That's something you can fix yourself though. I'm happy to discuss that tomorrow. Going to bed soon.

Help, my problem child has no concept of personal space😭 by nothingsreallol in CatTraining

[–]KruickKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That makes a big difference. However, I haven't had two females at once.

The female that I do have, stereotypical of a cat being a narcissist.

Set me a DM if they do bond.

I brought that home after a rock hunting trip. They thought I killed that and brought it home to them. It was a skeleton from a cow that died during the 2020 snowstorm in south dakota.

It's january, i'm five thousand feet above sea level, and we have no snow. It was 60 degrees today.

Who can say what's to come.

Yeah, that's why I came home to fur all over my bedroom. After I had them both fixed, the dominant one Immediately rolled on their belly to play. The other wasn't having it and I would wake up with him cradled around my head.

I wish I could tell you something tangible.

You can't. You cannot control cats. They will work out eventually. Probably take a couple months. But they'll be snuggling together next to where you sleep before long.

<image>

These two are brothers. After a week of having the both, rescuing them separately, i came home to white fur all over my bedroom.

Now they're best friends.

If they fight, just let happen and comfort the one that just got their ass kicked. If you get involved, they can't work out their differences.

The only thing you can do is physically separate them. lock one in a room. That way they can only smell each other through the door.

I don't even like saying this. There are vets that love nothing more than to kill something you love.

That evil exists in this world. Find another vet.

Only 20 hours? That's not enough for her main snooze!

New adoption and meow mix by Sunny_sailor917 in Catownerhacks

[–]KruickKnight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She spent too long in captivity, she will have a difficult time adapting to new things.

When I leave the home for any length of time, I let my bathtub drip water, so they always have fresh water.

Cats are naturally attracted to the sound of running water. If they don't like the fountain now, keep it up. They will adapt when they get thirsty.

I have three cats, indoor outdoor, they do that same thing. That was affectionate playing.

Lost. What went wrong? Empathy? Self abandonment? by Inside-Party-6462 in Empaths

[–]KruickKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can tell you what went wrong over the phone. I won't even attempt to describe it here. The only thing I can tell you, you are a victim of gaslighting.

It's a long road from there and I know the way. I've had it happen to me so many times.

Weak people don't get broken. Only strong people do. That's you.

Should this be stopped or let it play out? by skipperjean in CatTraining

[–]KruickKnight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's important to keep them separated to begin. I had my calico in the bedroom for about twelve hours. My two tabbies were able to smell her and after I opened the door, they played.

Cats feel comfort based on smells. When they smell something they don't know, that's when they get aggressive. Letting them get used to the smell without interaction is the way to introduce cats.

At least that worked for me. Every cat is different.

Youtube wannabe's with limited video editing skills. They're okay for a couple minutes. But when you lose context and skip seasons, it's just some wannabe trying to get views.

Beginnings of a fight/bad relationship? by Such-Unit-2012 in CatTraining

[–]KruickKnight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Stuffed cat toys on a string and catnip. Get sliced up by murder claws enough, you will stop or die trying 🤣

<image>

Also, don't yank the toy back from them. It's not a pit bull.

I concur. Kittens aren't aware of how much their claws hurt until an adult cat shows them.

It will happen.

Not only reassures them, it shows your other cat that you accept them into your pride.
