what about a cat??

does not apply to cats... Cats don t really understand people the way dogs do. Dogs perceive people as being different than themselves: As soon as they see a human, they change their behavior. The way a dog plays with a human is completely different from [the way it plays] with a dog. ------ Cats are using behavior that they would use toward their mother—all the behavior they show toward us is derived in some way from the mother-kitten relationship. The kitten learns to raise its tail, rub on its mother, and knead and purr. Grooming is what mothers do back to kittens. So, cats are using bits of behavior already in their repertoire to communicate with us. There aren t very many behaviors—maybe half a dozen.
