Although they are independent-minded and capable of living alone, I firmly believe cats appreciate and reciprocate affection. Feral cats often live in groups, and even nurse each other's kittens. You're not just thumbs to your kitty, although I'm never sure which of us is the pet.

I am not her pet, I am her caretaker according to her. I'm here to make sure she's happy, healthy, and cozy, in one of those orders. She likes me! I also know she likes anyone who will get her a treat.

Except my identical twin. My identical twin is very very scary, you see. So scary to little cats.

Your kitty is at least as smart as a human baby, they're scared of identical twins too.

They're WRONG, don't you see!? Don't you smell and hear the clues!? Am I the only one who's not fooled!?

We all have to override our fear of identical twins with logic, but there's a reason for the "evil twin" trope.

Edit: of course, you could be the evil one, but that's okay because every evil villain loves their cat.

No no, neither of us is evil! We shared an imaginary evil triplet though. Easy to not know!

And yes, the kitten is smart. Except when she isn't! She's always a very good cat, the best at being a cat!
