imagine if there were bears in the wild and in zoos, but there were also very tiny bears, small enough to curl up on your lap, and we kept them as pets and they lived in our houses and slept on our beds and loved us
and now please realize and appreciate that that’s what cats are. cats are a miniature version of beautiful, captivating but lethal wild predators. we can’t get close to lions and cheetahs but they come in a small house-friendly size and they are cuddly. they lick our hands and make happy noises when we pay attention to them. i can’t thank evolution enough for this miracle tbh
