"him's" ... As a non native English speaker. Does this exist?

[-] Shortstack@reddthat.com 1 points 3 months ago

Folks also like to speak in a cutesy but deliberately incorrect way when it comes to cats or dogs.

So yeah, chalk this one up as another 'smol', 'angy' or 'feetsies'

Oh, that what this 'smol' was for... I was wondering why it was sometimes swaped for 'small' on social media

Cats’ language proficiency usually doesn’t develop past the level of a typical human toddler. There are exceptions, like Garfield, but most will mispronounce many words and often use incorrect grammar.

No, it's not grammatically correct, it's just cutesy online cat speak.
