If you have a #cat or #cats, please do not use laser pointer too often!

A cat needs to catch the prey from time to time and that cannot be done with a laser so the cat can get depressed if you often use the laser and nothing else.

We don't want that :meow:

@stux Do they though? I mean they are playing and I dont think they have the same sense of failure humans do.

@freemo Oh yes they do! If you only play with that and the cat never 'wins'... Totally!

@stux I can understand the reasoning, I'm just not sure its true. I think it might just be you projecting how you would react if you were a cat.

Domestic cats still resemble alot to their wild cousins unlike dogs which have deviated alot. So most cat behaviours (which we find amusing, funny or weird) just mirrors the way wild cats live in jungles.

@freemo @stux
Cats are a middle of the food chain predators which means they prey over small animals while get preyed by the bigger ones moreover they are solitary animals unlike the dogs which live in packs.
