Heh...I'm sending this to my brother, who is the servant of three cats.

Cats don’t have owners. They have staff.

I’ve heard this before. Cats can definitely tell other cats; they behave towards each other way different from how they behave toward humans.

Cats think you are just a big, stupid cat

As stupid as "us" big, stupid "cats" might be, we don't go around vomiting all over the floor, or bringing in dead lizards, or scratching the furniture. So, who's the stupid one, huh???

My wife has five of these furry rats. And the article is right: the lights are on but nobody's home. They do nothing but eat, sleep, fish for snacks in my aquarium, and crap in the litter boxes. Their idea of interaction is getting underfoot when they hear the electric can opener. One of us is gonna break an ankle one of these days.

Gawd, I gotta get another dog.

"they were never bred to play some specific role in the domestic life of humans,".....Don't know about that Ben. We had a cat around the house and another in the barn. Didn't feed them that was their job to eat pests. Sounds like they had a role...

I disagree with the findings of this Anthrozoologist. Cats know you’re human and not a cat. They’re aware you and the family dog are entirely different species. You may be their parents, but they’re aware you’re not a cat. Cats are family; it’s the stupid dog who is the household pet.

What cats don’t get is that despite the fact you’re a hopeless stumbling klutz with miserable dexterity and incapable of speed, cannot smell things across the house, evidently can’t hear for crap, and are demonstrably blind as a bat, you’re the most amazing hunter they’ve ever seen. It’s madness.

You wake up in the morning, go away for hours and hours, then return home around sundown with bags of food and begin a great feast. How in the HELL do you do it, they wonder. You can’t even go to the bathroom in the dark without crashing around and almost killing yourself (or a nearby cat) yet the big cold box you hide the best food in is always filled with all kinds of delectable meat. Cats are impressed, but they’re sure they can still do better which is why they always try to get outside.

They think you’re the cat who can operate a can opener.

I beg to differ - my cats think I am a food-dispensing machine.
