These cats are absolutely lethal. I hike a lot and have a legitimate fear of being stalked by one (happened to a friend, the only reason she saw it was cuz she stopped to tie her boot, she had no idea). The fact they behave like normal cats strikes me as odd cuz you don’t realize how scary a big fluffy kitty can actually be

All cats are finely tuned stealth killing machines (though some are lazy). House cats are just optimized for rodent-sized prey, though they are still capable of putting up a decent fight against larger things. Though I’m curious if cats evolved to trigger “cute” recognition or if primates evolved to find things that include cats cute.
I will always argue that all mammals, if not broader categories, have cute recognition. I think it’s a fair play mechanism that evolved so that most species will cut other species’ young some slack in a brutal world, for the most part - with exceptions. I have no evidence for it, but I’ve seen enough animal interaction in my life to not feel completely unfounded either.
Cats will be cats
Imagining a tiger aggressively showing me it’s asshole…
Not in the deviant art way.
Pet tiger jumps on bed. 500 pounds of muscle paces in a circle beside you. You pet them on their head as they rotate away from your head scratches as your hand hugs be base of their back and they present their asshole to you.
Cats
I’m not into furry stuff, but I imagine that’s basically how a yiff starts.

OwO what’s this?
