We have quite a few interesting episodes with our cat. He's an orange tabby, like others cats posted in the beginning of the thread. Since he had an adventurous life when he was little (many days missing on his own in the Ontario winter, hunting big rats and proudly bringing them home, and barely escaping death a few times) once he moved to Europe he definitely settled for a bourgeois life. That means he is calm, friendly and basically enjoying himself most of the time.
Mr. Cat, watching time go by.
That's why, knowing him, some episodes have been particularly interesting.
1.- The first time my wife tripped hard on mushrooms.
As soon as the strong effects kicked in, and as she swam in mushroom hyperspace while laying on the couch, Cat became super interested. He came close, pupils dilated, sniffing her cautiously, and stood by her side for most of the duration of the experience. Afterwards, he kept close to her, cuddling and purring softly. I ruled out plain concern for an apparent sickness, because I've seen him around whenever my wife or I have been sick (and I mean with physical symptoms comparable to a trip) and he was calm and basically not interested.
2.- One of my sclerotia experiences.
A moderate level 2-3 trip. Cat was following me around a looking at me. My sensation was that he was looking
knowingly, but that of course might have been only my impression. What certainly happened was him staring at a clear spot in the bathroom wall, while I washed my face. He was seeing something there, guarding, fur slightly puffed for a long minute until he relaxed and kept following me once I went back to the bedroom. I've never seen him do anything like that.
3.- One salvia trip.
He was super affectionate in the aftermath with me. I don't remember if he behaved in a curious way while I was out, since I was pretty far away, and more than half an hour slipped by while I vibrated and slid inside of a strangely textured hollow tree.
Regarding DMT, I haven't noticed anything special so far in his behavior. It's true that I haven't been able to break through completely yet, so it's early to tell.
We have recently adopted a dog, and soon I'll have the chance to smoalk again in the setting I like. I'm curious to see what will happen with our pets once either of us completely falls through the rabbit hole...
