They're cats, for another. As a straight woman, I imagine (sometimes) that how I relate to Cats is how men relate (in the abstract) to Beautiful Women.1) Every cat is different but the same, but different. They all speak the same poetic language kinetically, with paws, ears, tails, and most of their characteristic movements and poses are beautiful and touch my heart. 2) I feel honored when one of my cats makes eye contact with me. 3) They don't know how soft they are or how striped they are or how to trim their own claws.
