I think humans are pretty well evolved, and we don't need to go to those extremes anymore. Furthermore, the only reason a lot of people justify killing animals "for food, CUZ I GOTTA EAT, HURRRR" is because they're specifically bred out of proportion for the sake of "food" alone. In a natural habitat, we wouldn't have giant cows on steroids popping out a ton of babies all the time, and those babies being forced to breed. It just seems really barbaric and horrible to put innocent creatures into these environments; when people are kidnapped against their will and held in basements/enclosed spaces, threatened, beaten, mistreated, it's a serious crime. (As it should be - how sick it is that people who do this to other people are even allowed to live) They're rescued and shuffled off to rehabilitation. But when it's done to animals it's "normal". I could go on for the rest of my life talking about this but I'll spare you.

I usually don't tell people I'm a vegetarian (unless they offer me something full of animals and still push after I say no) because of the ignorant ways they respond ("where do you get your protein?", "how are you still alive?", "PETA stands for 'people eating tasty animals' hurrrrrr hurrrr hurr I'm so funny hurrr"). It doesn't offend me; I just have a seriously low tolerance for people acting stupid. (Especially when they sit there and gnaw on whatever they're eating, make eye contact with me and make obnoxious sounds - what the hell are you trying to prove? That you act stupid for no reason??) I don't judge people for their food choices, but I do like when they learn new ways to cut down on their animal consumption (but only if they want to/enjoy it). Meat is poison, but saying so isn't going to stop people from their habit.

Man reason this pic is a thing. It happens more often than it doesn't. So you don't like yourself or Ki then?

I never said I don't like things that talk (though I'm usually annoyed by things that talk too much). But I like things that can't, just the same.

I don't remember my female kitty being like that when she was younger though.

Maybe she's just kind of shy. I've always read that female cats tend to talk more, but I think animals are just as hard to generalize as people are. I love when kitties mew, though. I don't even mind if they mew too much, and sometimes I mew back (but then I get sort of worried that I mewed and offended them somehow - not sure if that's a little schizophrenic or a legitimate concern).

I do meow back or just talk to him normally and we have little conversations but when I just walk past him and he meows it just grates on my nerves. Also when humans meow back to a cat it is pretty much just jumbled words/sounds. I highly doubt we are saying anything similar to what they are saying when we repeat their meow sound.
