- Meows loudly:
- To be let in, very early in the morning and very late at night.
- To be let out again.
- To demand immediate attention and scritches.
- Leaves hair in unlikely places.
- Will immobilise unsuspecting humans by jumping on their lap and staying.

Distinguishing features and behaviour:
- Has exciting adventures.
- Explores alien space ships.

- Crawls through ducts. Just like Sigourney Weaver and Bruce Willis.
- Exploits quantum superposition to exist in multiple states at once.

I think it’s pretty clear which type of cat is cooler.
