Like… what do cats think of their humans?

“Lol this stupid human feeds me for no reason”

or

“This human feels like my mother”

“This human is a great friend”

or something else?

    I’ve read that cats assume we are a giant, weird looking cat otherwise why are we feeding them? And they treat us as a parent causing them to stay in a juvenile state so they engage in play behavior and such. Normally the mom cat would tell her kids to move out after a few months.

      Exactly this, we had a cat that did this that I mentioned in another comment. It was quite brutal to watch, as we happily would have kept both mother and child, but cats don’t work like that.
