Before I had cats, I used to think of them in terms of other animals. What I mean is that a dog or a horse is very defined by its skeletal structure. They are like popsicle stick armatures with some flesh thrown on.

Now I think of cats more like amorphous blobs with some hard bits stuck on. I think anyone who owns a cat will know what I mean by this.

My cat often lays down twisted 180 degrees or more. Just doing whatever they want, defying laws of nature.

Well, dogs also do this—I present to you my majestically twisted creature: https://imgur.com/a/5WcYzSw

I have no clue how that is even possible.
