was thinking it’s weird how in humans sometimes ppl horrifically murder people. Do, for example, ants, have sometimes an ant that horrifically murders other ants?

      The cat my family had went through a phase where he would organize dismembered body parts. Organs arranged in a line on a rock, heads collected in the sandbox, it was very macabre

      Yeah, it’s actually ecological terrorism to let a cat roam outside. “Domestic” cats have made several bird species go extinct. It’s funny because I was going to post about cats being little sociopaths.

      But that’s hunting for sport. Those are it’s natural prey.

      Do cats kill other cats outside of a perceived threat to their life?
