To be fair, most cats ‘train’ every day, they just sleep in between. If you ate a controlled diet, spent most of the day sleeping, interspersed with some stretching and running and jumping on things, you’d be I’m pretty great shape.
Weighing only 7 lbs helps a lot too.
And being below the age of 15 in most cases
I was just about to say that if you had spent your entire life doing parkour then you too could do parkour with ease. The reason we allocate specific times to train our body is because our daily lives don’t contain enough activity to naturally train us.
Also age & how much at what age different species age.
Ballparking it humans over 30 are cats over 10 or 12.
Humans just start aging after we had enough time to reproduce (bcs that’s how selection works) yet have longevity way beyond our decrepit 40s - for that there was way less natural selection.
Ever seen how much your cat stretches?
Or how much they rub it in?
Cats work for 15 years max. You might live until 100.
But cats have 9 lives
In German speaking countries cats only have 7 lives :(
I stand corrected
I didn’t mean to correct you, just wanted to add this random thing I thought of reading your comment lol
No worries, i actually always forget this fact
I don’t wanna
There is literally a Wikipedia page dedicated to cats that have lived to be older than 25 years: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_longest-living_cats
Ok, median expected lifetime is around 15.
I find that hard to believe too. I’ve never known anyone who’s had a cat die younger than like 15, but I suppose it could be true
We’ve had 4 of 5 cats die before reaching 6. 😢
Stop shooting them.
That sounds like a you problem, not a cat problem
Their evolutionary path min-maxed dexterity.
We dumped int.
It really did work out for us, we just have to get off our fatasses to keep things going. Call it a fair trade.
We also dumped it in stamina. Seems a bit OP
Yeah and our cha is just broken.
We charmed wolves into permanent animal servants.
Course then cats charmed us into theirs, so swings and roundabouts.
Our big brains take a lot of care and feeding for sure.
We also adapted for endurance hunting and fine motor control in our hands. A Chimpanzee could tear your arm off, but they could not throw a curveball.
Thank your erect spine.
