That cats sense something we can't. Think of it this way, if we didn't have ears, we wouldn't know there's such thing as sound. Maybe there is some sort of thing that exists that humans lack the organs to percieve but cats can
They kind of do. Not through some extra sense, but because they have insanely good hearing, and very low visual acuity combined with really good motion detection.
They have a completely different perception of the world, basically everything is a blur, but moving objects stand out. That's why cats can stare at an unmoving laser dot: they're not unmoving if you're a cat.
Yea my cat acts like there are things when there aren’t
Yeah but so does a baby
Yeah newborn startle reflex kinda shows that.
What are they startled by nothing changed nothing happened but still they get around like sun bears
My uncle George is like this too
