Housecats domesticated themselves because of the way their family dynamic works. They basically said "Hey, this place is warm, and has mice. Watch the kittens while I hunt, willya?"
Meanwhile, most other wildcats are actively hostile towards humans. You can make friends, but they won't domesticate.

Personally, I've always found it interesting that Superman can afford a nice apartment in a major metropolitan (hah) city, while Spider-Man barely scrapes by paycheck to paycheck.
This tells me that typing speed is a major determining factor in newspaper salaries.

Not a reliable measurement. Manuls (Pallas Cat) are very very not-friend, despite their size and fluffiness.

Yeah, it's weird. Cats are either able to purr or roar, but not both. Felidae (small cats) purr, Pantherae (big cats) mostly all roar - with the notable exceptions of snow leopards, cheetahs, and mountain lions.

Yep.
Zero consequences. They want to shoot people who stand up to them, so that's what they're gonna do. If that pisses people off, no worries, they'll shoot them too.

Sigh... And therein lies the rub. A lot of the complements and attention I get are from male furries, and I'm straight.
Great, yes, thanks, glad you think so, sorry this is awkward.
