Cats display a range of behaviors that convey their feelings towards their human companions. While cats like Frank may seem indifferent upon their owner's return, others like Donna express strong feelings through vocalizations and body language. The contrasting attitudes of cats demonstrate their unique personalities. Philosophers have started to recognize the similarities between human and animal behaviors, challenging the long-held belief that human intelligence is inherently superior to that of animals. This growing appreciation for animal behavior reflects a shift in understanding the emotional lives of pets.
The Tangier smoke cat catches a piece of meat in his front paws like a monkey...my little monkey beast. The white cat rubs his way towards me, tentative, hoping.
Most times, however, that was not the case: our boy, Frank would simply vibe on the couch...while his sister, Donna would give me a mild side-eye, or outright walk away.
As soon as I'd be back inside, Donna would stand in front of the entrance door, sitting upright, eyes wide open, and would let out a meow so high-pitched it was close to a screech.
The history of Western philosophy has often made a strong distinction between human beings and other animals, due to the alleged higher intelligence of the former.
