Hello everybody, welcome back to the Fire Escape cast.

It is episode 93.

I'm Mike Mahardi, here as always, with Dan Reikert.

Hello.

Mary Kish.

Hello. And my cat Daisy decided to come intro. Hello. Oh my God. That was her. Do you again? We're breaking like important earth news here. I was going to move her mouth. Pet me, Michael. Wow. For the audience, for those who aren't on the video feed, that is just a cat speaking into a microphone.

You won't know if I'm lying unless you join the Patreon at the video feed.

Gotcha.

I love Amanda Moore.

That's not a lie.

You're not far off.

They all do.

I mean, she said it.

Daisy has become, I don't know if I've told you this, she just decided like two weeks ago to become a lap cat at five years old. That's how you guys. Animals get older. I think you can see those, like, we see it with like Razor just getting like a little more chill or a little different. Yeah. I think that happens. That happens with people when you get older, you get different, right? Yeah's what life. Yeah. Yeah. I forget what five is in cat years, because cat years isn't just seven years, like dogs. It's like way more at first, but then when they're older, each year is not human years. So what does it say for five-year-old cats? How old is she? Well, Google AI says... Don't. It's just the thing at the top. It's the quickest thing. I'm not saying it's right. The first year... Okay, here's from Purina. Okay, this is from Purina. The source. Look, here's the second thing down on the sheet. Okay, yeah, sure. That looks more real. Okay. The first year of your cat's life is considered the equivalent of 15 human years.

Yeah.

Second year adds nine. So two cat years are 24 human years. After this, each additional human year is four cat years. So age three would be 28. So 36. Yeah, 36 is that old. They're 36. They're like, they're our age now. And now she's decided to cuddle on my lap. I'm not 36, but it might as well be. And she just like started doing it. I think the colder weather also is, you know, they need me for heat sometimes. But it's really cute. When did you become a lap dog? Me?

Yeah.

You sound like shit, by the way.

What's wrong?

Thank you.

Are you sick?

I'm just clearing the air before.
