They will ask and answer the questions whether cats really have an easier life because humans allow them to meet their basic biological needs, and whether we humans, through cats, fulfill our own desires instead of meeting their non-obvious needs.

 

In a conversation entitled The Cat Debate – What does it mean for a cat to be a modern cat? Especially for a brachiocephalic cat, the two will also argue the pros and cons of deepening our relationship with cats, discuss our impact on their psychophysical health and satisfaction, the dictates on feline lifestyle and morphological changes such as brachycephaly.

 

They are committed to a great relationship with cats, but this should be based on understanding and compromise, not on bad and old practices.
