Domestic Evolution [Sarah's Scribbles]

Garfield is an Eldritch abomination, not a cat.

This comment got a laugh out of me. I could hear the grinding.

Cats let us domesticate them because we’re big enough to hunt (grocery shop) for tbem and provide shelter (house, cat bed, human bed) but aren’t interested in eating them - the sweet spot

Cats are absolutely pack animals. I have had the pleasure and fright of watching normal house cats operate in a pack. We just don’t generally leave house cats to live on their own to study because it’s horrible for the ecosystem. But anyone who’s been around a place where generations of a cat family live for whatever reason can tell you, they are as much pack animals as wolves and lions.

Cats will absolutely hunt in packs. Especially with aggressive birds, but also scaring small prey right into another cat.

Yep, house cats are pack animals. They live naturally in colonies.

This is why we can be included in the cuddle puddle, even if we are the big dumb cat.

I’m sorry, John.

My cats ran a mouse up the door for me this morning. I woke up to both of them just going bananas at my patio door and when I collected myself I went “oh, a mouse, that’s a weird place… how did it even get to the second hinge…? whatever man…” and scooped it into a big jar and took it outside.
I wish they were slightly better at their end of the bargain…
