    Your cat is a member of the family. If you had a kid and gave it food twice a day, never talked to it, and didn’t learn how to let it talk to you, your kid would also develop an internal life that you’re not really part of.

      What if my kid gets all kinds of treats and play, all the cuddles they want (which varies from kid to kid and day to day), in a house full of people who love them and they still puke on my floor for fun after eating too fast?
