Domesticated is a bit of a stretch, especially when we often hope they still hunt rodents. 😜

They tolerate us, and maybe often love us, but would not hesitate to survive without us.

Cats are independent people that choose to continue to live with you because it’s nice. Most of them can find a way out if they want it.

They could find a way out but they don't because they like us and I think that makes them special. Like even if a neighbor feeds them it's us they come back home to so their love is not motivated by just food and shelter.
