What is it with employees from Roosterteeth as well as Achievement Hunter having such rivalries with wild animals. Gus got bullied by a squirrel and stalked by a pigeon while Gavin keeps getting harassed by Raccoons and lets not talk about Geoff and his deer killing spree
@@alecLogan I am not saying I completely believe it to be true, but I also have no reason to immediately write it off as total bullshit. There is some evidence to support it, but not nearly enough to say for certain. It might be real, and it might not.
Koneko Ray The science (from what I can see in other comments) is that it’s _relaxing_ . Which can be said of _so very many_ things and is such an aside to be rewritten as “healing powers” that, apparently, it bears reminding that that’s the phrasing being considered.
@@alecLogan Sounds to me like it is just poorly phrased to imply more than it is meant to. It seems entirely plausible to me that being in an agitated state could decrease the rate that injuries heal, be it by psychosomatic strain on the body due to stress or simply by more bodily movement repeatedly reopening wounds. And it also seems entirely plausible to me that purring could be, to a cat, a very reliable way to calm down nerves and reduce agitation. Claiming it promotes healing is kind of plausible, but perhaps it would be more accurate to say it could maintain baseline healing rates where they would otherwise slow in a more stressed cat. Saying they are "healing powers" is likely entirely sensationalistic and disingenuous, possibly as a result of people trying to draw more attention to a study by making it sound more interesting than it really is. Again, this is all my speculation, but if given the proper context and perspective, I see no reason to not see it as plausible.
Koneko Ray ... Which is why I phrased it earlier as a ‘reminder’ and went over what, specifically, is being taken issue with, by them. AH as a group is well-aware they are less likely to properly understand something vague and successfully pass it on worded appropriately, and more likely to pick up specific bits that they then butcher in trying to explain to each other. At which point, they pull eject, emphasizing that they don’t understand it, as it’s not any of their field of study.
as far as im aware cats have various different types of purrs its a form of communication its entirely possible that Booker's "growling" is just a part of it my cat does it sometimes when shes anxious, like during particularly loud storms or when theres fireworks or the like
Cat purrs are between 25 and 150 Hertz and it is scientifically proven that sounds within those ranges promote health in many ways. So yes, a cat can basically vibrate it’s bones back together.
It's not entirely true to that extent, as someone put it, it relaxes you and that relaxation is what promotes better overall healing. Think of it like this for example. Two individuals of similar build, health, and fitness are injured and break their arm, one man stays home, takes proper care of it, and goes out of his way to not do anything to agitate the broken arm where as guy two goes out, moves around, and doesn't take time to rest and relax during the healing process.... which one do you honestly think is going to heal right? Relaxation is part of recovering and cats purring promotes relaxation in humans for some reason. So it's attributed towards faster healing. But if a person without the cat relaxes anyways the healing would have been the same anyways.
My cat had never done that until about a month ago when a guy came over to give a quote for some work on the house. From the moment this guy walked in the house, Jake tried to keep an eye on him while simultaneously staying away, and was growling the entire time. I’d never seen him do that to anyone before or since then. Needless to say, I did not trust this guy.
My kitten only growls when he has a toy with feathers on, the one time he didn't it was because he stole a pea off my plate and I tried to take it off him lmfao.
The purring might not be true but what is true is that cats have a specific type of bacteria that lives on them the reduces the fear response in creatures other then cats in the area. The evolutionary function of this is to make hunting easier as prey are less likely to flee. The side effect is having a cat physical makes you less stressed.
the frequency that cats purr at encourages cell regeneration, so that's why purr when they're hurt too. it's also why my bones are dense as fuck and take up a disproportionate amount of my body weight
The idea of having an indoor cat is weird to me, because in Australia, I don't think indoor pets are really that common, especially not with cats or dogs.
I've never had an indoor cat until now, my kitten hates outside, we carried him out the front once and he freaked out at the cars. We also live by a main road so I'd never have an outdoor cat here. Before I lived in a little village so cars weren't a worry. I guess it depends on where you live cause if I was still in my village I wouldn't dream of having an indoor cat.
@@Jessiiahh Ah, that makes sense, I guess most people who have indoor cats live most closer to cities so makes sense, keeps them from getting taken out.
Aurelius Corvunus I had to bring my cat in, he has no safety awareness and the vet bills were immense. I was terrified he just wasn’t going to come home alive.... or drag another larger than him possum in, but perhaps having it be alive this time. that vet visit was a thing - so many scratch marks and a month of medication. the adjustment was hard when all my neighbors have outside cats but he eventually got used to it.
I've heard a few stories of people having to bring their cats inside and keep them there because they just end up killing too many smaller animals like birds and mice. Cats are pretty effective hunters so sometimes they can actually cause a pretty decent impact to a population size when they're outdoor cats, especially in places that there aren't normally cats to begin with
Which event are you looking forward to the most this Extra Life?
Facilities (john mace) vs AH
Michael and Gavin getting Moonballed!
Moonballs
achievement hunter and whose spot
Well Imma be honest I’m watching basically all of it
Matt telling the Raccoon's plan is probably the best part of the video.
Plot twist the raccoon stole the flamethrower
Lmfao he may
RJ from over the hedge
What is it with employees from Roosterteeth as well as Achievement Hunter having such rivalries with wild animals. Gus got bullied by a squirrel and stalked by a pigeon while Gavin keeps getting harassed by Raccoons and lets not talk about Geoff and his deer killing spree
What if most of it stems from Geoff's deer hunting? That that brought the vengeance upon then
Don’t forget about Gus’s Possum and raccoon incidents
@@PunchCounterpunch_Lizzy or the Rat
Wolfox he really is reverse Snow White
I totally forgot about Geoff and his deer killings
Good to see Burnie's "if I don't understand it, it is bullshit" mentality has spread to the rest of the office.
Reminder that the context is cats purring being like some videogame passive heal effect that has vague-at-best science behind it.

I love that Jeremy backed out of the purring thing when Myatt said he’d back him up
Booker sounds like he's the definition of "oh lawd he comin"
as far as im aware cats have various different types of purrs
its a form of communication
its entirely possible that Booker's "growling" is just a part of it
my cat does it sometimes when shes anxious, like during particularly loud storms or when theres fireworks or the like
My cat also does a low growl when someone knocks or the doorbell rings. But only like 65% of the time
Gav's delivery of the whole story was golden!!!

I love how RT is predominantly cat people.
The purring healing thing is real
It is scientifically one of the most relaxing sounds to humans. That is where the healing properties come in.
LeoGirl it actually does help increase bone density and repair

I feel like that that "cat growl" is them being grumpy that attention may be taken from them.
I mean cat claws are fucking sharp as hell ....soo I believe you can have an attack cat
I keep forgetting that my cat has the same name as Matt's cat

Just everyone talking about their cats, how far these lads have fallen...
If you were setting up the animated and the live video, then this video was like twice as long as it needed to be
