Why are
all cats fucking mental?
I've never understood this, had two of my own (one now dead) and I for years thought of them as quite simple creatures, but as they got older, one of them died, I went away for a few months, etc. etc. it seems that yes, they are thick as shit, but they're not quite as simple as I always thought they were; they seem to go into some sort of depression after the death or depature of a companion (I definitely don't want to say mourning) and they all seem to have some kind of neurosis.
Is it to do with improper rearing by humans as the surrogate mother, or what? Whatever the reason many many cats are absolutely bat-shit insane (current cat seems quite normal, if a little soft, hasn't hunted anything for years and is entirely dependent on people).
