Episode 312 – Cat and Human Perception

Last week I meandering primarily about canine versus human perception so it seemed only natural to look at this same situation as it relates to cats and us. Unfortunately because cats are so out-of-box behaviorally I found myself meandering into a corner. Why, in this particular area, was feline perception more closely aligned to ours than to our dogs’?

After pondering the subject for several days, one conclusion I came to in some ways seems the logical: how their perception evolved may have nothing to do with us at all. As my eyes automatically wander toward Bamboo doing his inscrutable thing with his body crammed between the sill and screen of a window in my office, I easily can imagine this happening.
