I am a cat who identifies as a cat.
Humans are making a lot of fuss about their human kittens who may be beginning to identify as cats. No, they are not growing fur or a tail. So far no school is offering them human-sized litter trays.
Perhaps they are playing at being cats. I know my human Celia did this when she was a child. And why not?
I take this trend as a complement to the feline species. These humans recognise our superiority and want a part of it. It is called the Furries movement in the USA.
When I first heard about it, I found it difficult to get my head around. But now I think it is rather touching that some humans want to dress up as being a cat.
Poor things, they can't grow fur, except in the wrong places. They have to wear furry costumes, false ears and attach tails to their backsides. They have none of the sheer beauty, grace and dignity of a cat. But they aspire to be in their minds, what they cannot be in their bodies.
I am pleased to be so up to date with this touching human trend. Purrhaps they will begin to understand us better.
- This book might help them in their new feline life.
