Is this how the cat will look in 1000 years?
An animated ball of fluff? I doubt it but there are signs that things are moving that way. Sorry that I have no more to say. Domestication of the cat seems to be heading in this sort of direction.
Domestic Cat 3013
With selective breeding you can pretty much do anything and given 1000 more years of domestication of the cat and full-time indoor living everywhere, you can see the cat developing into a living fluffy, plush toy, which is what a lot of cat owners actually want.
I still think it could happen, considering how people try to breed the cat into something unusual and unique that no one else has ever seen. I’ve read the cabbit (part cat part rabbit)is a fictitious breed, but with genetic research something this weird will likely happen in the future.
The idea is that the domestic cat is becoming more and more a plush toy rather than a real cat.
It looks like the Furby toy Furby was named after. Lord help us all!
