Universal Truths That I Learned From a Cat


What Is The Universal Truth I Learned From The Cat?

Let me tell you a story about “What is the universal truths about a cat”, but, wait a minute, why on earth is a Sarplaninac writing about a cat? hahaha… Are not they supposed to be mortal enemies? Yes. Yes, we are. But there is a famous saying, “The enemy of my enemy is my friend.” Let me be clear; squirrels are my absolute enemy. But, after studying a cat, I have a new respect for the feline species, I will explain.

Boss Cat

I have studied the cat next door, “Theo,” long enough to notice that his parents are not in control, Theo is. His parents yell, “Get outta there!”  “What are you doing!” “Stop clawing the couch!” And he does not even respond—that is power.

A Body at Rest Will Stay at Rest

I am a big fan of conserving energy, and Theo has mastered it. Every time I peek next door, Theo is sleeping inside the window sill. Relaxing and sunbathing—that cat is a genius. I would do the same, but I would not fit in the window.

Equilibrium

Theo’s parents pet him until he attacks! He attacks his parents! And that is if he even decides to acknowledge their existence. If I tried that, I would be an outside pup in a heartbeat. I have to hand it to Theo; he does whatever he wants without consequences. By acting unpredictable, Theo maintains a power equilibrium in the house. For instance, Theo allows petting but will bite, ignores his parents 90% of the time, and sometimes pretends his dad is a tree and climbs right up. Theo keeps his parents on their toes—asserting his dominance.

While I don’t agree with all of Theo’s “acts,” I may have to try some to keep my owners on their toes.
