I’ll take that point. But all in all I wouldn’t call cats dumb. There are some dumb specimen, for sure, but that goes for all beings. And this comes back to my initial point: Cats have some unique “smart” skills, they just don’t compute in the same way as we humans do. I’d put cats in the smart … lets say 10% of all creatures
wow, 10%. cats are so unaware i think I could give them top 60%.
Killer whales, primates, crows, plenty of animals seem to demonstrate problem solving skills, true communication, situational awareness. cats do not. they seem to operate solely on instinct and any deviation completely flummoxes system.
They’re good at stalking and being pretty, but that’s about it.
But there’s no way in heckadoo cats are anywhere near the top 10% smartest animals. they tricked ya by looking sleeeek.
I think you might be understimating how many animal species there are.
Birds and mammals make up a measly 1% of those. Soo even if we take all mammals and birds, cats are even in the top 1%, I was being very generous ;)

or you are mixing up aesthetics and instinct with intelligence. you are being poop-duped by the kitkats. toxoplasmosed.
