Please respect your cat. Many millions of great cat caretakers or guardians do. However a significant number don’t. This is not a lecture. I just believe as does Ruth, who made the poster, that cats should be treated with respect as it is the cornerstone of best cat caretaking. If you respect the cat you are bound to understand cat behavior because you can’t respect a cat without that knowledge. If you understand cat behavior you will see a cat as a cat. It straightens out any false expectations that a person might have. It prevents a person declawing their cat. It means the person will allow their cat to express all the natural desires and drives that a domestic cat has, which leads to contentment in the cat and, as a consequence, in the person. Respecting the cat builds the perfect cat/human relationship.
