Well, somebody gotta ping Doogle
There are only two species on earth that hunt not just for food but for sport and pleasure, they are humans and house cats.
Dogs have been known to eat their own puppies, cats do not do that and even treat other cats kittens with patience. Cats are NOT psychopaths, dogs just get better press.
“cats do not do that”
Male lions will eat their cubs.

There are more animals than that who hunt for sport and pleasure. Wolves do it.
Cats may not eat their offspring, but they will leave them to die in someone’s garage, or crawlspace, shed, etc.
(FWIW, we have dogs and a cat, all of whom I love. Most dogs are affectionate; only sometimes, are you lucky enough to get an affectionate cat, and once you have the cat, it’s not as if you can dump it if it isn’t affectionate.)
So will male bears.
Democrats and Marxists do. But, I repeat myself. Even John (Served in Vietnam)Kerry want to know if he could ,"Get me a huntin' license." Have they no shame? AOC must be tearing up already.
I remember long ago our male cat had to be kept away from our female cat and her kittens - he’d bit the male kittens heads off.
BKMK!!
Cats aren’t really all that complicated. Anything significantly smaller than them is food, anything that is significantly larger than them is something that can bring them food, anything roughly their size is confusing and could be either. And they sleep ... a lot.
Actually, the new leader of the pride will kill the offering of his predecessor so all the female go into heat and the new leader can then mate with them.
Kitties are special precious. They just aren’t pippels. That’s all.
Generally if a cat doesn’t return to her kittens it is because she cannot because she has been run over or something like that.
I like dogs, I have one, and aside from having a perverse fondness for rolling in any poison ivy or cat pee that she can find, she’s a good natured little beast despite a profound hatred of her nemesis the mailman.
My tomcat is a bit of a furry little b*****d, and in fact answers to “hey you, furry little b*****d!” The other cat is hopelessly affectionate, sweet-natured, and relentlessly bullied by the tom. I wouldn’t count either as a psychopath, but the tom is definitely a cat of strongly held opinions.
