    That’s on you. You should store your cocaine somewhere your cats won’t be able to reach it.

    Lol I recognize that container. It’s not entirely the cats fault.

      I have those same containers. Spent hundreds on an entire set.

      Worst gimmick I’ve ever wasted money on. The lids do not seal at all; hell, they barely stay on. Never again.

        I have oxo pop ones that look really similar and they all seal really well. Are the ones in this image different or did I just luck out?

          I also have the OXO ones. A different brand is shown in the picture but they’re all garbage.

          If yours are sealing well, then maybe they recently redesigned the lids. I bought my set in 2021. Do a test for me: take one that is filled with something and then tip it upside down and shake while the lid is sealed. Then report back with the results.

            These are the fullest ones I have right now. I keep my flour and sugar in snap lids though. Edit: I shook them all before the picture

            Edit2: I filled his greenies one, it was hard for me to palm and shake but I did shake it with two hands upside down before the picture:

              Didn’t actually expect you to do this; nice. Thanks for your contribution to science.

              I don’t recognize the bottom two but the top container looks just like one of mine. They definitely redesigned it, cause if I tried that on mine, the top would have fallen right off and the contents would be on the ground.

                If you didn’t notice before checking I uploaded a large square one full of greenies dog treats that I could barely palm. You’re welcome, I was motivated to make sure I wasn’t wrong!

                  Thanks for the update. One last question, to settle an argument with the wife: do you hand wash the containers, or stick them in the dishwasher? And if it’s the dishwasher, what temperature do you wash your dishes at?

                I have the bottom one in several sizes they rock and are the best containers I own. Seal up real good like.

              Dang, you keep quality snacks on hand! I hope we’re all invited to the next party at your place!

            • I don’t know what brand mine are (I just got a cheap set at Walmart) and they seal extremely well. Only one of them kinda sucks, and that’s the one I dropped and the lid cracked, so the suction seal doesn’t work since it doesn’t create suction anymore.

                Name of my dog. I put it on there because my groomer lets me take his treats and I guess probably a habit from labeling things my kids would take to daycare and school.

    I’ve been told it’s acceptable to flick a cat’s ears (gently, obviously) because that’s what a mama cat does to her kittens when they do something dumb. Any opinions on this?

      If it’s something serious I take them to the scene of the crime, pinch the neck folds (do not ever carry them by that btw) and speak in an angry voice. Works best with cats that have more than 2 braincells lol
      edit: mine would ignore the ear flicks, it’s not even an annoyance to them

        Yeah, they more like swat at their ears. I’ve seen an adult cat do this to another when they did something they didn’t like.

    I smack my girl on the butt. The thigh, really. Not hard, there’s no pain involved. It does annoy her though. I’m just letting her know, that was not cool. She understands.
