minus-squaregivesomefucks@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·6 days agoYou just see more dogs running around excited than you do cats… A cat is a solitary predator that uses stealth than pounces. Dogs are pack predators, they get food by running around making a shit ton of noise and hoping something runs so the pack can chase it down. That translates to modern pets day to day activity. If you ever saw a cat run around like a dog, it would pant. If you saw a dog that acts like a cat. You’d never see it pant.
