Apparently none of you are metaphysical and thinking too human. Do you

fear
that my theory might be true. I for one have a relationship with my cats

and
have found on many occasions when I try to pick up my cat Jade and kiss

her
on the head or hug her, she meows as if to state "oh come on daddy, not
again, I am an adult kitty here." I think you here need to think outside

the
lines and put away your human way of thinking and actually talk to your
cats.


I talk to my cat all the time, and she kind of talks back..in a non human
non verbal way. I can tell by body language what she is feeling but I
don't try and credit her with human feelings. Humiliation is a human
emotion. Think about it? Why do we feel humiliated? because when we
do something silly we are laughed at, we are ridiculed by our peers.
Unless you are dressing up your dog and taking him to doggy park
where he or she is likely to subjected to the kind of feelings your talking
about then there is no reason for him/her to ever feel humiliated about
dressing up. Not if you tell him how smart he looks. If a male child
grew up wearing a dress and no one ever made him feel embarrassed
by it, then he would never feel humiliation..wouldn't know he was supposed
to.
Not sure if I explained that very well. Point is, I don't have a problem
with cats thinking or feeling the way I do but you can't credit them
with learned emotions unless you teach them .
