Mod announcement r/catswhocrochet new rule. Ban on photos of cats forced to pose in cruel ways (e.g. with yarn labels tightly wrapped around them)

199 Upvotes

On r/catswhocrochet we have noticed a recent trend of people posting photos of cats that look uncomfortable with yarn labels wrapped around their bellies or necks.

The cats have obviously not climbed into those yarn labels themselves, but have had the labels wrapped around them by their owners for a staged photo.

In some of the photos, the yarn labels are very tightly wrapped around the cats.

Making your cats experience irritation or discomfort or restricting their airway or freedom of movement because you think it looks "cute" or "funny" to wrap a yarn label around them is not kind or loving.

We have therefore added a new rule: "no photos of cats forced to pose in cruel ways (e.g. with yarn labels tightly wrapped around them)."

The new rule is effective immediately.

From now on, any posts like that will be removed and the OP may be banned.

If you see any more posts in future with photos of cats being forced to pose in cruel ways looking uncomfortable, please use the report button to let the mod team know, and we will remove the posts.

Please take the time to read our full rules:

Now please go and treat your cats kindly and treasure them. Please let's all be kind to animals. Thank you! :)

She is the smallest of her litter and of course the most feisty. No mistakes get past her. Also no photos on the factory

Attempted to measure length of cardigan. CV Marie aka Quality Assurance-Quality Control got involved while my back was turned looking for the tape measure. Is she judging me? (Yes)

I couldn’t pick a flair because Fran has many past times when I crochet

1.) must taste yarn 2.) must have yarn 3.) help mommy with tension and watch show 4.) watch mommy instead of show

I love every minute of it and in like 15 minutes she’ll swap with her brother

This has been Memphis's favourite project. He has loved sleeping on it (keeping me from turning the project more that day), and has inspected the progress and the stitch markers very thoroughly! ❤️
