cat mystery of the day
How do 8 month old kittens, with very sharp teeth and claws, know instinctively what to attack. In other words, you've been sitting still playing with the kitten with a string as an attempt to distract it from attacking your hands/arms/feet/legs/anything else it can reach. You finally stop playing with the string to go do something else, and it instantly knows to attack your stockinged feet, even though they haven't moved at all for a long time. But somehow, the kitten knows instinctively that they are feet, and are therefore great and fun targets.
This same question can, of course, be applied to how kittens know to attack arms or hands that aren't moving. But they're at least closer to the head and they move more. But feet that haven't moved for 20 minutes.... How do kittens know these are good targets?
