Petting cats while on drugs- does it hurt the cat?
#19165798 - 11/20/13 02:44 PM (10 years, 2 months ago) |

This is a perennial concern of mine.
Once when on MDMA (or was it mushrooms?)I was petting a cat in my friend's apartment.
All of a sudden this girl who was on meth jumped up and started screaming "ITS SEEPING INTO ITS SKIN! ITS SEEPING INTO ITS SKIN!" over and over again and ripped the cat out of my lap and threw it on the ground.
It was hilariously disturbing at the time.
Ever since I have wondered when I pet my cats while on various drugs (mushrooms, MDMA, ketamine etc)... are the cats getting high? Is something seeping out of my hands into the cat's skin?
Is it dangerous for the cat?
I was always convinced the cat gets high with you when you pet it. I try to wash my hands and stuff.
What do you guys think?

yes, our waste gets excreted through our skin... Meth and other drugs would be included. (and especially Meth, because you're usually sweating buckets)
it's entirely possible it could get through a cats skin and into it's system, and a cat is small enough that it could effect them.

i don't think people can do enough LSD or Psilocybin to have it happen.

Yeah I am convinced my cats get high when I am on mushrooms and pet them. My brother laughs at me for saying that though.

that'd probably be more about the fact that you're cat can detect subtle changes in your behavior, and can see your saucer size eyes, which is also in a cat's natural instinct to react to.

It sounds like a load of bullshit.
I thought humans can absorb drugs through the skin because we sweat and have pores. Cats don't sweat.
Now if you are petting a cat with a hand that's covered in some sort of drug, and then the cat goes to clean itself later, then yeah I guess it could get high that way.

the issue is also the ABSURDLY low amount of drug released by pores on your skin.
we're talking like... a few molecules here...

true, but kitty cats are sensitive, small, and are usually consistently petted, which can build up a drug in their system over time.
but Everlong brought up another good point, that cats don't sweat... there isn't a ready way to absorb the drug, other then if it was absorbed orally.

I don't really want to get into the details, but once my cat ate an undetermined amount of JWH-018. He got high as fuck. 4 years later, I had to put him to sleep. Coincidence? You decide.

one time I was REALLY high on mescaline and it only took 1 glance at my cat to put her in full on seizures. I asked my doctor about it and he explained how I telepathically sent some mescaline via the optic nerve at my cat and it was a little too much for her to handle

I've actually heard of this more than once too. Like cats just naturally know you're tripping or are in a way tripping with you. I love cats but unfortunate I'm allergic D: But humans on psychedelics while around cats is really interesting

I'm pretty sure cats are just always In a higher state of consciousness, so when you're tripping, youre reaching their level and they can sense that

I do not believe what you're saying to be true OP, pretty much everything I could think of to explain this has already been said.
Also even if this was true, who's to say it's hurting the cat anyways, maybe some cats like to get high...
