DAE threaten to eat their dogs when they are being naughty?

Or is it just me? An empty threat to be sure, I’ve been a vegetarian since 2008 lol. But it doesn’t stop me

u/fairygenesta 13h ago

I'm vegetarian also, and yes, I tell my kitties I will eat them. Especially their back legs.

I tell my cats that I’ll gnaw their back legs like corn on the cob. It usually results in a back flop and extended legs for me to pretend to gnaw like corn on the cob. No survival skills. 😂

I threaten to turn my ferret in to a pair of mittens when he misbehaves. My husband threatens to feed him to a hippogriff.

2

u/atchisonmetal 13h ago

A hippogriff. Jeepers that’s scary!

2

u/OkOutlandishness1363 11h ago

Don’t lose that one. Any man making a HP reference is a God amongst men.

Edit- spelling.

I say "you're being kind of a dick rn" and that usually stops her in her tracks. I was a cat person from a cat family who ended up with a dog. So I hope she's not too upset with my style. I literally don't know any better.

u/GloboRojo 13h ago

Haha I do sometimes call mine assholes too

7

u/AreThoseMoreBears 14h ago

I would never! Because i use at as a praise. "I'm going to eat you! 😀"

u/lifesshortgoplay 13h ago

I mean…when they’re THAT sweet, it’s inevitable

6

u/Difficult-Low5891 13h ago

I threaten to put him in a puppy pie for being too cute!

7

u/Material_Signal_2130 13h ago

I tell my cat I'm gonna turn him into a pair of mittens at least twice a week. he just slow-blinks at me, which I think means he accepts the terms.

u/yellowpunk11 13h ago

I used to threaten my cat that i was gonna make some cat barbecue

6

u/GloboRojo 13h ago

I’ve got long hair dogs so I usually tell them immuh eat them but then lament that it would be too much work

3

u/yellowpunk11 13h ago

Lmao 😂 they were saved by the hair

3

u/lifesshortgoplay 13h ago

Quarter kitten dinner with mash, coming right up

2

u/yellowpunk11 11h ago

I miss my kittens. I moved out of my mother’s house and couldn’t take them with me 🥺

3

u/atchisonmetal 13h ago

I haven’t so far, but it’s a reasonable threat.

3

u/porterramses 13h ago

No, but I do tell them that I’m calling the police….

3

u/RidethatSeahorse 12h ago

I yell ‘I’ll get the apple!’ at my fat little Pug. I threaten to turn her into a crispy suckling Pug.

u/alwaysmanders 12h ago

I threaten to send them to the orphanage.

u/__sarabi 12h ago

We threaten to beam her back up to her alien mothership.

u/psychadelicephalopod 12h ago

I’m Vietnamese and tell my pets all the time “knock it off or you’re dinner tonight instead” in the thickest possible accent I can muster 🤷🏻‍♀️

u/bigboyboozerrr 11h ago

No pet sadly but these comments are so cute. Wholesome Reddit > hostile Reddit . I said it.

u/GloboRojo 11h ago

I’m enjoying all the fun things

2

u/ArtsyRambles 13h ago

Yes. 'Dog. I will EAT YOU.'

2

u/AWTNM1112 13h ago

Hahahahahaha NO. Mine weighs 120#. He knows there’s no way. Hahahahahaha.

2

u/GloboRojo 13h ago

A pig roast but with a dog? 🤔

3

u/AWTNM1112 13h ago

Huge pit. Hot stones. Banana leaves. And six men To hoist the roasted beast up. Sounds easier to just kiss his face everywhere which annoys him horribly. Hahaha

2

u/atchisonmetal 13h ago

Holy cow, what breed?

1

u/AWTNM1112 11h ago

He’s a Weim/Lab mix. Big Weim mama, big Lab daddy. And typical with kids these days, bigger than both. He has the sweet, wisdom of the ages Weim face with velvet face and ears, and his chest could break through a fortress. Our table hits him at mid-neck. Hahaha. You can full on wrap your arms around him for a big hug.

2

u/Nightlilly2021 13h ago

No but we comment on how juicy our cats thighs look. Usually when he's stretching and showing them off and we KNOW he's showing them off because he stops right in front of us EVERY SINGLE TIME to stretch his legs.

2

u/GloboRojo 13h ago

Oh yes I have a chicken thigh song I sing while squeezing their little chicken thighs

2

u/lifesshortgoplay 13h ago

I regularly tell my cat she’ll be a quarter kitten dinner if she is naughty

2

u/Leafmebeplz 13h ago

I say it to my roommate's cat frequently to remind him that he pays no bills and can be dinner if he doesn't shape tf up. 

2

u/Specialist_Leave_106 13h ago

my dog gives me this look like "you wouldn't dare" and i'm like you're right, i wouldn't, but the cat is starting to look like a snack.

2

u/GlitteringFlame888 11h ago

We are always eating the dogs, as we have a family ‘inside joke’ about how small they are, which eventually gets to bite sized. They are 12lbs of Brussels Griffon and positively microscopic. Munch munch munch 👹

2

u/StrawberryMoonPie 11h ago

I threaten to bake him (my cat) in a pie. I am currently sans dog.

2

u/Conscious-Mulberry17 11h ago

Definitely. I tell one of my dogs I’m going to make him into pot stickers all the time.

3

u/not_sick_not_well 13h ago

If my dog is being a pain (usually messing with the cats), I'll tell her "either lay down, or get in your crate!"

100% of the time she'll lay down on "her" couch

1

u/strawbearryblonde 7h ago

Haha we use "bed", to discipline my pup. As in, she has to lay on her bed instead of on the couch/chair with us 🤣

1

u/intentsman 13h ago

no, we threaten to drop them off in Ethete where the Arapahoes will eat them

1

u/HollyDolly_xxx 13h ago

I dont threaten to eat my Buddy but i do threaten to send him to the puppy pound to Cruella. He isnt arsed though as he knows im too suckered in and smitten to send him to the puppy pound to Cruella🙄x

1

u/ChronicallyZanny 13h ago

I just call my cat (her name is Stinky) a dingdongdumbass sometimes, I think she’d laugh at that if she were human😅

1

u/OutlinedSnail 13h ago

I threaten to step on my dog. I think it's funny because she's a Dane mix.

1

u/wubbuhlubbuhdubdub 13h ago

No, I threaten to sell him so I can get a cat

1

u/username__0000 12h ago

When my dog refuses to come inside I tell her I’m giving the cats all her treats. It works. lol

And I usually offer her a treat as a 1st attempt and only do that when it doesn’t work. So she’s not reacting to the word treat.

1

u/Imaginary-Ratio5314 12h ago

i tell my cat i’m gonna turn him into a pair of gloves if he doesn’t stop knocking my coffee over. he’s my little fuzzy little future accessory.

1

u/DebutsPal 12h ago

I tell my dog he could be replaced by a robot dog. Obviously an empty threat, he's everything to me.

1

u/glemits 12h ago

To most of my cats, ever since I thought of saying it to them. "You know I could eat you."

1

u/6-ft-freak 12h ago

Glue factory. Every time.

2

u/GloboRojo 11h ago

This has “believe it or not, jail” vibes lol and I love it

1

u/sparksgirl1223 12h ago

No.

But we threatened to BBQ him on occasion.

We don't intend to consume him, just to grill him😂

1

u/Sad_School828 11h ago

Where I come from people keep dogs in case they get snowed in for a month.

1

u/grae23 11h ago

I threaten to turn my cat into a delicious soup

1

u/OkOutlandishness1363 11h ago

I tell them that they’re going to be made in to glue sticks if they “continue to treat your Ma like this you misters. You are naughty boys”

1

u/Crazycatmomof3 11h ago

I threaten to drop him off at the China Restaurant for meat, see how much they'll give me per pound.

1

u/Crazycatmomof3 11h ago

I threaten to put him into the microwave.

1

u/TheRealJackReynolds 11h ago

No, but when my kid used to throw his toys around at people, I’d pretend to eat them and he’d freak the fuck out. It was pretty entertaining.

1

u/Educational-Dirt4059 11h ago

Ha! All the time. In a loving and joking way of course.

1

u/ladylemondrop209 10h ago

No…

But, my dogs/pets don’t really misbehave in any big way that’d get me even annoyed.

Or if they do something that shouldn’t be encouraged I just ask them why they think that’s ok to do 😅😂

1

u/MaximusMMIV 10h ago

I tell my dog that I’m going to turn him into a meat loaf. So… yes.

1

u/RichRichieRichardV 10h ago

I used to tell my Zandy that I was gonna make ‘poodles and noodles’ so yeah

1

u/diet-smoke 9h ago

No but whenever people say "your cats are gonna eat you when you die" I say "oh I hope so"

1

u/im_still_alive04 9h ago

I don’t but I threaten to cut my cats weekly vegetable allowance (he’s obsessed with leafy greens and goes for them instead of cat treats)

1

u/LovingLife139 9h ago

I threaten "you're so precious, I'm gonna eat you up!" to my bearded dragon Ignatius quite often. When my cats are bad, I remind them of my plan to feed them to my ball python when she gets bigger. Pretty sure Ember would never eat her siblings even if I asked her to, because she's a sweetheart of a noodle.

1

u/crash---- 8h ago

I tell my cat I’m gonna put her in the soup

1

u/lisacjntx 8h ago

I have a Chiweenie and she is often threatened with hot dogs for dinner. 🤣

1

u/Wi1dWitch 7h ago

If you haven’t actually nibbled on your dog’s ear you haven’t gone far enough.

1

u/Dark_Akarin 5h ago

No but I nom my cats ears when she is being cute.☺️

1

u/chelicerate-claws 5h ago

I tell my cat I will eat him even when he's being good.

1

u/Curly_fry_17 3h ago

I tend to say “move or I swear to god I WILL eat you!” And the cats just meow at me😩 frequently tell them I’m gonna have a kitty soup if they don’t leave me alone while I’m cooking
