Floobating (floofinition) – Arguing with an animal even though you speak different languages. Origins: Internet, circa COVID-19 Pandemic.
In Use: “Jessie would raise her voice to make her point floofbating with Spanx but it wasI no damn use because the cat would just get even louder until Jess finally gave up.”
In Use: “Many dogs begin floobating and employing nonverbal language whenever their humans suggest showers or baths.”

We speak different languages, but I’ve found that sometimes a squirt bottle full of water aids in communication with a cat who <I>will not stop yelling for faucet water</I>. Or with a cat who has decided that, since breakfast is supposed to be at 7 AM, and it’s always 7 AM <I>somewhere</I>, the middle of the night (three hours before 7 AM, local time) is an appropriate time for a cat to start yodeling for breakfast even though the kibble bowls are full.
