the way this cat react to this makes me think he just basically heard his pet human say "Hello?" to him.
Like it makes me wonder, do animals speak a language, and have goals and a life and system that is as complex as ours, but just completely alien to us and therefor invisible? just as ours seems to them?
Do the things we see, kennels and cages, to them seem exactly the same as apartments or homes do to us?
do they sit and stare at us wondering "what is it thinking? if only it was intelligent it could tell me." the same way we do it when we stare back?
There is the old saying would the ant's notice the highway next to the ant hill? Maybe the same goes for different animal species.
Perhaps plants have their own cancel culture that we dont even know about.
