"Apparently the handlers were very confindent with their ability to control these "domesticated" cats and started showing them at the local high schools."
I have little respect or patience for such people. These clowns that think they know the mind of animals simply because they "train" those animals are some of the most logic-starved humans that walk the planet.
Causing an animal to react in a somewhat predictable manner does not mean we understand what's going on in their minds.
So true.
