Are we even cognizant of the daily assumptions we make over how animals behave? Look at how humans have interpreted cat food: Felines should be eating a sufficiently varied diet of bird and rodent. Full animals are best. Meanwhile, we (by way of Ralston-Purina's suggestions) feed them a bunch of Taurine in a can of meat-flavored sawdust, and wonder why our cats constantly meow at us for more food. Or even better, feed them nothing but dry food, and watch the urine crystals build up until they pee, then be mad at them for not drinking enough water (cats get water from their food). Cats feel extraordinarily unsafe on ground level. But humans angrily shoo them off tables or dressers, and wonder why they act all jittery and spooked all the time. We cut off the tips of their fingers so that they don't scratch up the furniture, then we restrict their freedom of movement by forcing them to be indoor pets only, for "their own safety" because we just crippled them. if that isn't an indication of how disconnected we are from how cats are supposed to behave, I don't know what is.
