- wizzwizz4 5y agoMonotremes are mammals that lay eggs. Platypi are monotremes. (If you like, you can change the definition of “mammal” to say “give birth to live young, except for monotremes”. That's exhaustive.)
- ryandrake 5y agoI think the point of the thread is that you're probably not going to need a platypus or a human or even a dog. If the requirements are that you support a cat only, then you just need a Cat class and no big abstraction taxonomy.
