I will not lie. I got teary eyed from this.

Ive not seen that,as far as fully mounting another cat and digging all fours into them so aggresivly.No one knows the animal Psyche and what in reality they are capable of "feeling".Its the actions that lead to conclusion and can be instinct,mimicking observed behavior or an actual thought process like....yes...you and I have,to one lesser degree or another.Some days,who's the real animal after all.I very much believe animals have a grieving process and mourn.Ive seen the calmest of dogs take protective postures over deceased pets in family...saw one actually drag another traumatized and deceased animal,frantically circle wailing and nudging him,almost to say get the f up.On the other hand Ive seen some just simply lay down and stare,whimpering and returning to owner...back and forth....eventually walking away.Shit some people see others in clear despair,passed out unconscious and in my own neighborhood shot dead...people go on like its just another day,walk 'around' the corpse.That cat has more compassion...clearly.

Yeah sadly you probably have a good point there., the inability to feel empathy and loss extends to at least some humans for sure.

For me though, I had to pour cold water on a sentimental video you understand, I highly doubt a cat is even capable of knowing what death is.
