Cats: Space Aliens or Cute Geniuses? Poll!

July 28, 2016 By: Summer Samba45 Comments

Are cats space aliens or just cute geniuses

I know what you are wondering — are cats space aliens? Or are we just geniuses who also happen to be cute? Let’s take a deeper look….

Proof cats are space aliens

  • Our eyes glow in the dark
  • In spite of being cute, some people are scared of us
  • We look into nothingness, watching things no one else can see
  • We are perfectly comfortable in advanced spacecraft that humans have not yet invented (and since humans haven’t invented them yet, who are you to say differently?)
  • We enjoy boxes because we know that we could make them fly if necessary
  • We can communicate without the need for a verbal language
  • We can manipulate humans into doing our will

Proof that cats are cute geniuses

  • Humans keep inventing new things in an effort to make us happy/ know us better (implying that they need to work hard to understand us)
  • Meanwhile, we can invent toys out of practically anything
  • We can manipulate humans into doing our will — and make them happy to do it!
  • We do whatever we want and humans always forgive us
  • We have created a language of meows to communicate with humans, even though we don’t need it to communicate with each other
  • The people who dislike us generally do because they know they cannot outsmart us, and because we are just too cute for them

As you can see, there is some overlap here. So what do you think? Answer my poll below and you can go into more detail in the comments.

    Summer, you make a good case for both space aliens and cute geniuses. Perhaps cats are both. I think cats are simply amazing.

    MOL Summer. As a human who has adored cats birth, I know you are cute geniuses. Cats are the most amazing creatures on the planet. Resourceful, playful, intelligent, adorable, manipulators, self-cleaning, loving, mischievous, great hunters, hilarious and I could go on. I could not imagine life without you. Going on 60 years with cats as companions and actively rescuing my whole life

    Both of course! We came from the Planet Bast a few 100 thousand years ago to tame the Human apes. Its werking. Slowly. They are ALMOST untrainable but we progress in the mission. We have had to change ourselves from Saber Tooth Cats to housecats (the remaining Big Cats are rebels) … Still, we WILL succeed.

    We say geniuses because the alien traits can also be attributed to our superior intellect. Our minds are do advanced it’s easy to think alien but it’s pure cute genius!

    Just about all female cats are cute!!

    Interestingly, I remember reading a book when I was a kid, called “Space Cats.”

    A BLUE cat (and, I’m not talking Somali Blue, like Summer’s brother Chilly) appeared in front of the house of a boy named Perry. Perry adopted the cat, and named him Alexander. He found out that Alexander came from a planet called “Tarvish!”

    On the “enemy planet” of the Tarvishians, with White cats, there was one “good cat,” a female cat named Nomura.

    Pretty thorough, Summer. I’d argue that even though cats could be considered an advanced life form, that you are too beautiful to be an alien 🙂

    It’s true that some people are scared of cats. When I was a kid there was a guy who used to come into my dad’s business. We had a couple of cats there. The first time one of them got close to that guy he threw up his hands and slowly backed away from it as if he were terrified. I always thought maybe that guy was just crazy, but now I wonder if he just recognized an alien genius that terrified him.
